Forgive yourself 🫠🫠

At the end of the day, when you care deeply when you’re empathetic, when you believe in love and the beauty of another human being so profoundly -some- times, you can convince yourself to fight wars for someone who isn’t fighting for you, sometimes you can convince yourself to keep trying, or not to give up, but that isn’t something to be ashamed of. You tried for something, you risked, and even though it did not work out, you, in return, learned how to set limitations, how to go forward with your heart and protect it not in a way that is guarded and hardened to the world, but rather in a way that is informed, that helps for it to be preserved and nurtured, that doesn’t let it settle for things that aren’t for it. Now you know what you do not want. Now you know what you do not want to feel. Now you know the kinds of things you crave, the respect you deserve, and you won’t settle for the opposite any longer. Forgive yourself for how you got to that understanding.✨✨

Forgive yourself for taking your love back. Forgive yourself for outgrowing certain people in your life. Forgive yourself for all of those moments you had to protect your energy, for all of those moments you had to make the hard decision to choose yourself because by staying, and trying to fight harder, and give more, and be more, and fix and fix and save and save, you were only ever depleting yourself to the point of ex ✨🙌✨🙌
