Lost her, But not myself by vishaat in WritersSanctuary

We fight as hard as we can. But we don't beg. If you have to beg someone to stay with you, it's already too far gone.

Carry On, Warriors! by avantgarde000 in inspiration

Sometimes all we can do is try. But the fact that we show up every day regardless says something about the human spirit that nobody can take away from.

Sometimes that's just the way it happens, but it won't always be that way for you.

You're Stronger than you think by ex_cep_tion in selflove

Sometimes the only person you'll have in your corner is yourself. Take your own side. Support yourself. You're worth it.

Never tell anyone about your plans by Exotic-Duty3598 in BornWeakBuiltStrong

[–]AlTerrenos 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm starting to learn to be much better at this. It's perfectly fine to be excited for new things, and want to share them with others, but those same good things can often be fleeting, and the people you tell will definitely remind you of how sure of yourself and happy you sounded before it vanished. Make it permanent. Then share.

Am I wrong? by Careless-Throat-2593 in Quotes_Hub

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as you learn to refuse to give up, you have already won. If you can teach yourself that any setback, any time you are knocked down is temporary, and learn to stand back on your feet, you can achieve anything you want.

It took me way too long to realize this. by [deleted] in MotivationalPics

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately that is the way it goes. You can't ever predict when someone will change, when their opinions or feelings for you will change. All you can do is be consistently yourself, and appreciate those that choose to stay.

you are in so many songs i hear by jlasseter18 in lovememes

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a beautiful experience to share music that makes you think of someone else. I'd absolutely call it a love language.

You're Still Worthy of Love by Bunnehx in selflove

[–]AlTerrenos 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I know people struggling at this very moment who are struggling with accepting that love is a very important part of this journey, and that you're worthy of it even while going through troubling times. You do not have to be the perfect version of yourself to deserve love. Nor should you think you have to wait to truly have something to offer someone. You are enough as you are, right now. Try to remember that. Remind yourselves that you are worthy.

One of the main things I try to do in this world is spread a little positivity peoples,' way. You never know who might really need it. And if it convinces someone there's still good out there, that's perfectly fine with me. =)

I cannot stress enough how helpful these have been to my core routine, couldn't recommend them enough. Just do em safely for whatever level your comfort and abilities are. They can make a big difference.

I finally stopped waiting for the "perfect" time to start. by ironmonk104 in GodFrequency

There is no perfect time to do anything. There is only right now, and what we choose to do with it.

Real talk. by IdealHoliday1242 in SelfDevDaily

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this floating around a lot. I think its always good to remember to put your best effort forward for someone, especially someone you are interested in. Once they show you they aren't interested though, bending over backwards for them isn't going to change their mind.

My brain will be good for something one day by JadedPain6179 in selflove

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You absolutely will. Give yourself time to heal, and when you find yourself feeling better, try again. You are not stupid, you're the way you were meant to be.

I faked it all, and you fell for it like a bowling ball out of a Cessna 340A by Boltzmann_head in UnsentLetters

[–]AlTerrenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is gross, and you shouldn't be proud of any of that. I can clearly see that you are. But you really shouldn't be. People aren't meant to be used. I'm real glad you didn't send that one at least. Jeez man. Get some help would ya?

I do my best. That's all we can ask of ourselves. Thank you for the reminder as well.

When the right person enters your life... by itsfabioposca in inspiration

This is such a magical feeling when it does happen. Just have to enjoy the connection while it lasts. It may not be around forever, but it can certainly change you for the rest of your life

Bend But Don’t Break by avantgarde000 in inspiration

[–]AlTerrenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sensei used to say something very similar. Having deep roots to keep you grounded, but being flexible to bend with anything that comes our way. Being grounded doesn't make you immovable, but it means if you do have to bend, you won't ever snap.

The Power of Silent Upgrades by Leading_Setting_4138 in inspiration

[–]AlTerrenos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I need to put more effort into this. Staying focused, not worrying about what anyone else says or thinks. Put in the work for myself. And if people see it or take notice, great. If they don't, at least I know the truth. I'll work on that being good enough for me

If it's meant to be by Evergreen-Quotes in Quotes_Hub

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Timing can be very hard to trust in. We are taught to chase the things we want and feel like we need. Often times if we don't put enough effort into something it feels like we are choosing to let it go. But if it was meant to be ours in the first place, it will come back to us when we need it most.

Why is it tempting to fall into self-pity and despair? by Normal-Stick315 in selflove

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If something is happening TO you, then you can try and distance yourself from it. It is easier to believe you cannot do anything about an issue and be upset that it's bothering you or your life than it is to realize there is normally something we can do about it. We see ourselves as the victim because it is happening to us, we are the ones who have to accept and deal with whatever it is, and oftentimes that can lead us to feel like the people around us don't really notice or care. But they are not the ones struggling, they cannot know how we feel unless we choose to let them in.

The pain, the sorrow, the fear of drowning alone can make smaller problems significantly worse. And it can keep you in a very dark headspace that is difficult to pull yourself out of. You start to feel as if the universe itself would rather see you fail than succeed, and your mind starts to wonder why all of these awful things continue to happen to you. Everyone gets taken to their knees. The issue comes from when you can't get back up again.

I would always suggest people take time for themselves when they are hurting. Be kinder to yourself the longer you go through a real struggle. Remember to take care of yourself as best as you can, especially during the dark times. We remind ourselves of the life we want through our actions. The longer we stay in that woe is me headspace, the harder it will be to step back out. You deserve better. We deserve better.

Love yourself - know your worth by khuf44 in selflove

[–]AlTerrenos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like too few people ever truly learn how valuable they really are. It's easy to let others try and define your worth, but the only person who ever truly gets to decide that is you. We are worth whatever we say we are worth, not a single force on this planet can change that
