Consciousness Rising
My broken heart taught me that self-love is not just the best love — it is the only love that truly stays. People leave, promises fade, and feelings change, but the way we treat ourselves decides how we survive it all. When everything falls apart, the only love that can heal us, hold us, and help us rise again is our own.

I’ll tell you like I told my mother, When you loose your memory, there’s nothing that I’ll be able to tell you to remember me because you don’t know me right now.

Compilation of Contemplation
I don’t talk much anymore, not because I have nothing to say, but because I know you will blame me. Every word turns into an argument, every feeling becomes my fault. So I stay quiet not out of peace, but out of exhaustion. It’s easier to stay silent than to be misunderstood again and again. Silence becomes a shield when words no longer feel safe. And that’s when you realize sometimes it’s not that people stop talking, they just stop feeling heard.

Know how to stay silent, but also know how to make them silent when they keep hurting you.

We'd gotten an arrest, a guilty verdict, the small percentage that gets the conviction. It was time to see what justice looked like. We threw open the doors, and there was nothing. It took the breath out of me.

The still-rising sun is behind him, outlining his broad shoulders and tall, sturdy frame in golden light. As he gets closer, stepping through the rainbow of mist reflecting off the sprinkler's spray, I take in the rest of him.....I can almost see how a smile would spread across his face, the lift of his full lips...
Which I realize are moving right now. Oh shit. He's talking and may have been talking for a long time while I gawked and had a whole R & B slow jam going in my head.

...I almost don't recognize her walking up to the stage. Her face is free of all makeup, and she's wearing a simple dress in a color that can best be described as dirty dishwater. With her bleached hair pulled back into a limp braid and sickly pale skin, she looks like some weird Instagram filter sucked all the color out of her.

In the Spaces We Don't Talk About: A Companion For the Upspoken Truth We Carry
Killing is not something you do privately, in the space of your own head. It happens here.” She opened her arms, as though to embrace the whole world. “In the relationship between bodies…”
“It's the same with love,” she went on. “You're going at the whole thing as though it's a problem with you, inside of you, sealed off from the rest of the world. It's not. Love isn't a part of you or your lover. It's not something you can have, like a pile of gold or a pet pig. Love is this,” She said, gesturing into the emptiness between us. “The space between.”
“There's space everywhere,” I growled, “between everyone.”
“Don't be obtuse, Pyrre. It's the nature of the space that matters.

Humor creates safe space. It gives permission for connection without perfection. It allows your Inner Springfield residents to gather, awkward and messy, and still toast marshmallows over the burning remains of a failed potluck without blaming anyone for bringing the wrong salad.
