What if it’s really as simple as: what you tell yourself becomes true? What you tell yourself becomes you. Will you continue down the thought you’re on…even if it’s not what you wanna be? Even when you can change the narrative whenever you please? Perhaps, people are simply intimidated by that kind of power, coursing through their own minds. Perhaps, it’s just easier to not be in control. But which would we enjoy the most?
New year, same me crying my eyes out bc I feel like such a piece of shit and failure and also i feel v alone like nobody wants to be around me and honestly I thought I’ve made progress with my healing but turns out I’ve just made progress with shutting myself down.
footy9250 asked: reflect: what are 3 things you have accomplished this year that you are proud of?
I am sooo proud of myself this year thank you for asking this!! 😋
1. In 2018 I finally started selling my art publicly. I sold and continue to sell art at 2 local shops, and I also attended a local vendor event for the first time. I am so SO proud of myself for doing this. I cried so much this year in regards to my art but I continued on thru frustrations and I am just so happy I was able to get out socially and grow more artistically.
2. Accomplished the goal of being less anxious, kinda? I walk places now, go to events without makeup on, discuss my sexual abuse / CPTSD more openly and overall I am more calm and assured in who I am. (things I used to never be able to do due to the anxiety)
3. Proud of myself for getting a 4hr tattoo and then getting my philtrum pierced the next day.
Ya know, just living my authentic sailor senshi life. 🌙🎨💕
