What could go wrong when watching Pink Panther?

“I wonder if being in a romantic relationship is the unquestioned prerequisite to being accepted-then-respected in most societies. It's almost to say that if you're "with" someone, you must somehow be lovable, or at least likable.”

You are the Most Kind and Most Merciful, bountiful with forgiveness; Your Illuminating Light floated me back up towards the glimmer of shimmering sun rays peeking through…

I‘ve been trapped in this narrative of “not fitting in” and disliking myself so much so that true self-love has been foreign to me. In fact, it’s been so much easier sitting in this place of self-hate than working towards anything else.

I’m relearning how to love and honor my inner voice and spirit; I’m reprogramming the negative thought patterns and destructive self-talk that triggers self-doubt to rear it’s ugly head.

Good things can and will happen to you.

Feel empowered in your own skin.

“Closing her eyes and beginning to run her right fingers through the strings playing the tune of her soul, she softened.”

Dissected, chopped and carved, like a butcher’s plaything / I am repeatedly punished everywhere I reside.
