Oh, this gets my heart tonight. "In the times I had been struggling, I still held space for those who needed me." --- absolutely this. I am trying so hard to learn to be more careful with who I allow close. Because I'm a GIVER, my dudes. I'll drain myself dry for those I love. There will never, ever, EVER be a time that I'm too busy or have too much on my plate and let that = neglecting my people. I will *never* be too busy, if I love you. I'll find a way, whether it's my time, my energy, my hugs, or just my ear to listen. My relationships are intentional//not transactional. I don't care about what I can get out of you. I don't care if you're asking too much. If I choose you//I *got* you. I remind my child of this all the time -- it doesn't matter how much she needs from me. It might be a lot, but it will never be too much. That's how love works, man. 🖤 But, that's WHY I'm trying to learn to be better at being intentional with who I allow in my zone. I know I'm a fiercely loyal little momma bear type: family, friends, relationships. Once you're in, I got you. So, I have to be careful who I let in, in the first place. I seem to struggle with that. Trying to remember that: all people can be good people. But that doesn't mean they're safe people. Red flags can feel like butterflies when all you've ever known is chaos, energy vampires can be stealthy until it's too late, and - maybe some people just change their minds, and stop being who you thought. It's ok to cut those ties too. Because there's nothing more lonely than being alone with someone else. No one else out here is gonna protect me, like me. Good thing I heckin' love me. ❤️ #samiravivette #poetryofig #wordsaremagic #wordsarepowerful #writerslife #lovelikethemoon #lovelylove #loveagain #loveanyway #lovealways #lonelynights #lonelyheart #datingafter40 #datingishard #singlemomproblems #singlemomlife #findingmyself #findinglove #loveyourselffirst https://www.instagram.com/p/CpJ6XKkOFIW/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
Hey babes, I just want to remind you that it’s more than "just words”. When I began this journey of intentionality..I didn’t feel different but I stayed consistent and today I can confidently say I’m glad i did that for myself. We cannot pray for change or things to become better but the words we use are contrary to the prayer. What comes out of the mouth is a reflection of what’s in the heart. The more we speak positively the more our mind and heart (soul) heals.
Right now ! promise yourself that you will be intentional with your words. You give so much to others- your time, your money, and your energy. Invest in yourself ! For free.. the only thing it will cost you is discipline and consistency but the return of investment (ROI) is worth it.
Borrow my words and my willpower if you must. But please, don't give up. @travelwithmestranger ( Scratched from 'Awakening') .

All my life I've been told it was just a joke, lighten up, don't be so sensitive, don't be weak, toughen up. The world is a difficult place. But there's a strength in staying soft, even when the world tries to harden your edges. I'm a flower hearted person. Always. 💕🌷💗 #nikitagill #poetrylovers #wordsaremagic #wordsarepowerful #flowerstagram #flowerhearted #beYOUtiful #beyourownhero #softhearted #strongwomen #bethelove #bethegood #belove #lovealways #loveagain #loveanyway https://www.instagram.com/p/CodJI23SZB1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
