What Is Gaslighting?

For those who think they aren’t going to be held accountable, after being extremely toxic and complicit with evil. Sans apologies. Invalidating someone’s reality is another form of abuse. It’s dehumanizing and traumatic. This is unacceptable behavior. If someone is gaslighting you act accordingly, ditch them. Never look back. They know WTF they’re doing. Who needs to be removed?

Be True To Who You Are

Don’t dumb yourself down to connect.
Don’t make yourself small to fit in.
Don’t sell yourself short to make others comfortable.
Their insecurity is for them to figure out, it’s not your burden to bear. Being true to myself is the best thing I’ve ever done. Artist: HollyMurray_Doodles

Cats Are Excellent Teachers

My cat for sure taught me more than I could ever teach her. I’m so grateful she knew how special she was to me, because I doted on her every single day. As a runt, she was small but mighty, extremely smart and definitely out of her mind. Get another cat? She attacked me believing a stuff animal was real. Costumes and accessories? She wasted $30 in her youth breaking those pet necklaces I purchased. It wasn’t worth the inevitable fight to put her in clothes, that’s why I stopped trimming her nails.

One of the biggest lessons you can learn from a cat is self-respect. Mistreat a cat, they’ll leave your ass and search for a new family. They also have no problem vocalizing their demands, like waiting patiently to get fresh water, because they found a single mote of dust floating in their bowl made of real china.

Jagger was a beautiful girl, who loved nothing more than getting attention good or bad. Extremely spoiled she also taught me be as stern as possible when they fit in your palm, otherwise you’ll have a brat for life. Smh. Also a cat’s trust is earned not given. Be like a cat, know your worth, set boundaries and stand your ground. Via: TheWitchOfTheForest

Know Your Worth & Secure The Bag

A reminder to anyone letting negative, low vibrational, jealous, abusive or evil people devalue them. It’s cool to be kind, until people mistake it for weakness and try you. Then you gotta put them in their fucking place, otherwise you’re enabling poor behavior. Know your worth, add tax, secure the bag. What you allow tells others how to treat you.

Self-Care Tip: Check Bitches

…Because you’re wearing it.

Once Law Roach told that OMG Fashun! contestant they looked like “a lady of the night going to coronation,” I knew he too learned from mother. Not all mothers are good to their children, but they’ve raised you and it shows. Despite constantly aiding in defaming me, I wouldn’t be nearly as good at dragging people without Naomi Campbell, she raised generations.

You bitches didn’t check your lipstick before coming for me. Sometimes self-care is setting boundaries by giving the same energy you receive. Stop prioritizing yourself last; letting people live in delusion and shitty behavior at your expense means you need to learn self-love. Takers take, how else will they learn if you continuously enable them? Personally, I’ve learned to do a 3 strike max. Who do you need to put in their place? Via: Literally.Iconic

I’m Just Overwhelmed

Right. It started in dreams, then third eye images and finally being illuminated by revelations of the last full moon. Even for me this newfound knowledge is overwhelming. I need a break, like a real one. Remember, when overwhelmed it’s totally fine to take time for you, no matter what it looks like to others. Artist: Awakenned Soul

Self Care: Zen Out, Or Do Nothing

Maybe you zen out, maybe you do nothing but rest and stuff your face all day, both are forms of self-care. One is spiritual enhancement, the other is resetting from burning out by doing nothing.We all need a day off to take care of ourselves. You can also switch it up, depending on what you need in that moment. How do self-care? When was the last time? Artist: Lainey Molnar
