There are weeks when we start with all the energy and others when it costs to try again. But moving forward doesn't always mean doing it fast. Sometimes it means resting, reorganizing ourselves and deciding that we are not going to give up yet for those days when one feels capable, safe. But there are also days when that voice appears that questions everything: what we do, what we decide and even what we are worth.
Do you know what's going on? Our value does not disappear because it is difficult for us to recognize it today. We are still enough, even when we are tired, confused or feeling that we can't do it all.
Today I want to leave you with a question for when that voice appears that disqualifies you ... Is this thing, I'm thinking about me a fact or is it a wound talking?
You don't have to believe everything you think and when that insecurity starts to condition your decisions, your limits or your relationships, asking for guidance is also a way to take care of yourself. It happens more to give the other the best, take care of one and wish him wonderful things…
It happens more to mature and stop demanding that they solve, fix or solve what no one can do for you.
It happens more to deeply enjoy his presence and not because nothing makes sense in his absence. It happens to accept the mystery that it also has... and to understand that the love of a couple is not todo... Life is too short to want to half.
That of hiding what we feel so that others don't know, or so as not to expose ourselves ends up being a very sad path. Especially when we realize from events that happen in the world that everything can change from one moment to another. Living involves risks, obviously the other may not want the same thing as you and it is valid, but it has to have the courage to ask, to try.
In the same way, I see with concern people who feel a lot end up keeping everything to themselves, so as not to seem like they are the ones who are more interested, more in love and so on.
In a world where cool seems like nothing matters to you, I think it's worth remembering that our passage through this world is very brief, and if something makes sense in your heart it's worth trying.
Fall in love with the struggle. Embrace the discomfort. Because what weighs you down today is exactly what's going to lift you up tomorrow.
We were not made for the easy. And when you understand it, you stop complaining about the weight... and you start enjoying what you're building. And in that reminder is hidden the greatest of freedoms: to understand that difficulty is not the enemy, but the way.
This also applies to knowing how to decide when to leave, it makes no sense to stay longer than necessary, where one knows that does not feel, enough.
Happy Day! ... Janitze. 🌹
