You’re not stuck.

You’re just repeating what’s comfortable.

Same habits.
Same choices.
Same results.

Most people aren’t trapped…
they’re just loyal to a version of life that isn’t working anymore.

Comfort feels safe.

But it’s also where progress goes to die.
At some point, you either: stay in the loop
or
step through the door.

All of this...

I counted my years and found that I have less time to live from here on than I have lived up to now.
I feel like that child who won a packet of sweets: he ate the first with pleasure, but when he realized that there were few left, he began to enjoy them intensely.
I no longer have time for endless meetings where statutes, rules, procedures and internal regulations are discussed, knowing that nothing will be achieved.
I no longer have time to support the absurd people who, despite their chronological age, haven't grown up.
My time is too short:
I want the essence,
my soul is in a hurry.
I don't have many sweets
in the package anymore.
I want to live next to human people,
very human,
who know how to laugh at their mistakes,
and who are not inflated by their triumphs,
and who take on their responsibilities.
Thus human dignity is defended and we move towards truth and honesty.
It is the essential that makes life worth living.
I want to surround myself with people who know how to touch hearts, people who have been taught by the hard blows of life to grow with gentle touches of the soul.
Yes, I'm in a hurry, I'm in a hurry to live with the intensity that only maturity can give.
I don't intend to waste any of the leftover sweets.
I am sure they will be delicious, much more than what I have eaten so far.
My goal is to reach the end satisfied
and at peace with my loved ones
and my conscience.
We have two lives.
And the second begins when you realize you only have one.

(Oct 9, 1893 – Feb 25, 1945)

Beautiful words by (IG: mairakalman) and video by @messynessychic reminding us of the weight women carry (best viewed with volume up 🔈). No matter what you feel capable of holding today — whether it’s the entire room or not much at all — your efforts matter and you are doing a great job. Share with someone who might need a reminder ❤️ #womensupportingwomen #women

It’s the Chair swirl for me 👏🏼 When you finally find someone who understands hormones, has created a program based on your hormone type, has step by step actions, and knows that your issues won’t be fixed by birth control or antidepressants. -Mood swings can be caused by hormone fluctuations and you deserve to feel like you again. -Brain Fog, newly achey joints, shoulder stiffness and vag inal dryness are all caused by falling hormones - you don’t have to suffer. -Heavy periods, cysts and fibroids are hormone problems that can be reduced without the cancer/clot related risks of oral birth control. - Lost libido and painful seggs is hormone related and you don’t have to live that way forever. - Unexplained weight gain can be due to perimenopause and menopause and I can tell you how to make it better. All in the Happy Hormone Lab. Doors close March 10- don’t wait Comment HORMONES for details

“Wherever you are, be it at the beginning of the journey, well on your way, or resting comfortably at some height, you must acknowledge where you are. That is the key to further growth. You should keep some perspective about the entire journey, so that you will not sink into complacency – feeling you have finished the journey when you have not even begun to approach liberation.”

– Ram Dass
