its really comforting to know that all the times i was at my lowest and loneliest in the past the whole time i had my self in the future and present who had survived those things looking back with love and tenderness and wishing desperately to offer comfort…i am my own guardian angel and i can use that knowledge when im struggling now and remember that somewhere there is a version of me that has survived this and is watching me with love and pride and joy in her heart
I love when someone casually mentions their messed up sleep schedule or that they haven’t eaten anything but popcorn all day and their friends immediately go “YOU TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF RIGHT NOW OR I’M GONNA PUNCH YOU IN THE MOUTH”
Just thinking about people making year-end summaries of their accomplishments and also about reasons to keep yourself alive through the next year. Sorry, it’s a bit of a sappy comic.
transphobic people will be like “I dont understand what you are and I’m entitled to a polite explanation in detail about you and your body and if you are rude then it will be your fault that I hate trans and nonbinary people”
whenever you don’t feel motivated to work, just imagine your future self. if you do the work when you’re supposed to, your future self will be calm, collected and be able to keep working at a steady rate (and eventually finish the task at hand, stress-free). if you don’t do the work when you’re supposed to, your future self will be rushing around, trying to complete things they should have done before, and overly anxious and stressed. be kind to your future self and do the work now.
remember: discipline is just empathy with your future self.
*walks up to a pair of dysfunctional parents* so which one of you is passively resigned to your stressful, unfulfilled life and would be much happier if you weren’t married and which one of you is the toxic destructive monster with a sad backstory
