LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS 👆🏻👆🏻 Taking s LET’S TALK ABOUT THIS 👆🏻👆🏻 Taking shit personally: We have egos. Our egos get hurt. We also are spiritual beings having a human experience. So when we experience triggers or things that make us feel bad - it's on us to actually take accountability for ourselves and heal within us what is being triggered. Most of the time, we get triggered and then project our shit upon others because we don't know how to heal. Let's break this down super easy: Say someone calls you ugly... Do you get upset, or do you not think twice about what they said? Here's the thing - if you get mad or have another negative emotional response to someone calling or thinking you're ugly - it's because a part of you actually believes what they are saying - so you are indeed taking it personally because you believe it💁‍♀️ Your WORK is exactly this. To work on yourself. To work on self-love, self-worth, whatever it is, that is tugging at you. We are spiritual beings having human experiences, and yeah - some of us are judgemental of others and say hurtful shit - and we say hurtful shit to others when we are hurting inside ourselves. I still remember in the 7th grade when my stepmom told me that if someone hurts you, it's because they are hurting themselves. As an adult, I now understand it. But what I understand even more so is that whatever triggers a negative response from me is my work - so I can deal what I need to heal within and never be triggered again. What are you taking personally right now? AKA - what negative responses are being triggered within you? Those are your wounds calling out for help. Thank the person who called you ugly 😂 and heal yourself. All they are doing is helping you step into who you really are. SIDE FACT: whatever judgy thing someone says to you is merely a reflection of how they feel about themselves 🤯 another reason to not take shit personally. We’re merely mirroring each other to help each other through. Take shit less personally by healing your shit so you can embody the beautiful badass soul that you are 💃🏻 I LOVE YOU ALL ❤️ TAG a human who needs to see this😍
Save this shit 💃🏻 Save this shit 💃🏻
We’re all in it and we don’t have to do it alo We’re all in it and we don’t have to do it alone❤️
When I was still in an orphanage, I remember walki When I was still in an orphanage, I remember walking back from the park one day and a crow pooped on me - like a lot. But instead of being laughed at, you’re more mesmerised at. In Russia, this was a sign of VERY good luck. I felt very blessed, even got adopted eventually😉 In America, crows seem to have the completely opposite meaning, instead of good luck it signals death or darkness of some kind. Personally, I never resonated with the latter, but the more I think about it, the more “good luck” can signal a death. A rebirth within yourself. Death gets a bad rep, but in the spiritual community this word aims more at letting go of what no longer serves you - whether within or outside of yourself. It’s the changing from the old habits to the new ones. It’s the letting go of the past, wounded you for the healed, renewed you. It’s renewal; rebirth of yourself. Whether we are talking about crows, death, or good luck - sometimes, if we’re lucky, they are all mixed into one so we can blossom into our best selves🙃
Forgive yourself for all of it. Every thought, bri Forgive yourself for all of it. Every thought, brief, and action that tried to convince you that you weren’t worthy of love. Forgiveness is not something we do enough of. Let yourself and others off the hook. Learn, grow, and keep on moving❤️
How amazing is this illustration 🤩 Thank you, @ How amazing is this illustration 🤩 Thank you, @shannonrose_art , for blessing us with this beauty🙏 Here’s the point: You ARE a masterpiece while you’re working through your shit! Just because x, y, z didn’t happen yet doesn’t mean you’re not “that” yet. You already are. It’s the little pieces, brick by brick, that add to the masterpiece of who you are. So don’t underestimate. Don’t lessen yourself just because you’re not there yet. You’re already whole. You’re already that version of you. You’re already the masterpiece in its perfect form no matter where you are in your journey. Embrace that shit. Embrace yourself. And don’t forget to love, Love, LOVE yourself through it all❤️ - @positivitysparkles ✨
"Family, friends, society all tell us who to be wi "Family, friends, society all tell us who to be without ever helping us really discern who we already are versus who we’re supposed to be. Others standards, especially society’s, knock us down because we think there’s a guidebook we have to follow to be accepted, loved, worthy, etc., But none of that is true 🙅‍♀️ The only truth is who you already are. What your heart and soul resonate with. Who you want to be. We don’t need any other guidebook other than our own emotional guidance system and what our heart says. If you love to draw but are living according to others and don’t get to draw - life drains you. If you love music but are being told to be realistic - that’s a societal “guideline” of people who were afraid to step out of their own comfort zone and go after their visions and dreams. Of course, it’s important to recognize that when we are told what we are told - it’s coming from their best intentions. But it’s simply not YOUR truth. It’s not something you need to adopt nor force into your life; again, that will cause more drainage. We’re often taught who we need to be and less embraced for who we already are, our soul's core. And the more we trigger others with our authenticity- the more it gets pushed unto us. Strength and courage is needed here 💪 We get asked to push down what's in our hearts and to listen to anything but that. But that’s how problems occur, that’s where the resistance of life becomes stronger, that’s where the inner-chaos can come in.. because we’re simply not following our own truth but the expectations of others instead. Have the courage to listen to your heart. Whatever excites you - do that. That’s like a holy yes from your soul; the only message you need 🙌 It's so easy to be told what to do, and it’s so much harder to follow it when we don’t resonate and eventually that takes a toll on us. We soon realize we are not the person we wanted to be or doing the things our heart loves simply because we followed someone else’s guidebook and not our own hearts. Learning who you are begins with unlearning who they told you to be. And your heart is the ultimate guidebook.” - @positivitysparkles ✨ Quote magic: @sylvestermcnutt 🙏
“You’ve survived everything thus far into your “You’ve survived everything thus far into your life, how incredible is that? I’ve heard that (Spiritually) Earth is the hardest place to be. It’s the only place where suffering exists- and we humans are prone to it from the way we are raised. Traumas and wounds being passed down generation by generation. So yeah, we’ve got a lot of work and healing to do on this beautiful planet. The best part is that we are always divine guided, supported, and loved. It may not always feel like it in the 3D but that’s where the power of healing comes in💃🏻 Once we are able to recognize our experiences and allow them to work for us instead of ‘to’ or ‘against’ us, we learn that it was all to help us come home to ourselves. No matter what the experience, our souls asked to learn lessons here on Earth. But the good news is this: you can make anything as positive or as negative as you wish - there is no “good” or “bad” , that’s just what humans come up with to label and limit ourselves. We are all here to experience what our souls wanted to expand upon. And when we decide to heal ourselves, we heal the collective. So no matter the experiences you have, know that all of this is so temporary. Know that you’re so loved and supported by the unseen. Know that everything that is happened is so you can understand your reactions and responses and to expand with more love, not less of it. You’re far stronger and far more able than you could ever imagine. It’s all within you because you are pure stardust; you are pure love.” - @positivitysparkles ✨ Image by one of my favorite authors, @mattkahn1 ❤️ I would really encourage you pick up one of his books (The Universe always has a plan or Whatever Arises. lOVE that) - SO GOOD🙏
