learning to pause and evaluate before a response instead of reacting on the spot when in conflict is an important relational skill. it’s also indicative of emotional maturity in another person if they do this.
Everyday I try to remember that the life I have now was something I prayed for. Even with all the challenges and confusion, I asked to get this far. I wished for all of this.
When you realize you’re sitting in previous prayers, a wonderful, overwhelming feeling of gratitude takes over. I am just so thankful & so grateful unto God. Thank you! 🤍
I realized recently I definitely breathe easier with certain people. And then there are other people who just feel like you’re constantly holding your breath.
it feels like every few weeks as a black person you’ll see a phrase or word you’ve heard since your childhood randomly blow up on social media, and then that word/phrase you’ve literally heard FOREVER gets played out by corporations and non-blacks in a matter of weeks
When a child is regularly screamed at, shamed, or harshly criticized, they don’t use logic. They fully feel trauma impact in the nervous system & their brain development.
Later, this will be called: depression, anxiety, bipolar, or borderline.
If this was about babies, there would be universal healthcare. Free education. Free daycare. Southern states would be doing all they can to drop the Black maternal mortality rate. This is about power and control
i’m so tired of abortion rights being framed around truly tragic circumstances like assault and incest. if you get pregnant & you don’t want to be pregnant, it is your right over your own body that is under siege. no one, including a fetus, can use your body against your consent.
I don’t think people realize that it is perfectly fine to be pro-life for your own body, but you can’t force that on someone else’s body. That is their decision.
And birth control is one of those things that is NOT one size fits all. I had to go through 4 different forms of it before I found one that didn’t make me suicidal, hormonal, and fatigued 24/7. Women don’t have the luxury to afford to do that.
MIND YOU, that trump executive order that let insurance companies choose if they wanna cover certain birth controls or not is still in order. Contraception became incredibly expensive under his administration. My free birth control spiked to $50 a month.
