In The Gloaming TW *just in case*

@mytwistedsoul

Awh I get that, not easy to let go off our own set of thoughts that prevent us from actually *seeing* ourselves sometimes, reminders sure help, we all can use them from time to time ~ sometimes knowing how someone else sees us can be awe-strucking like "hey, is that me you're talking about?"👀" Lol. Sometimes when our own perception for ourselves is clouded with doubts and negative self talk, Reminders from others definitely help in *shooing* some of that fog away --- and yay soul is working on it and is allowed all the time in the world, at your pace always, you're not alone and we sooooo got this. ❤️ *hugs*

I can use reminders too haha, so thankyou, Soul, that means alot. 🤗

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Awe struck - definitely. But I also know that there are people who see me in a bad light and they have let me know about everything wrong with me. And it matches with previous things - it's like the good stuff is written in chalk and easily erased but the bad stuff gets carved in stone and stays there for years. I read somewhere that for every bad thing you hear about yourself - you need so many good things to out weight it or something like that. It's just so hard to believe the good stuff 😕

Stay awesome ❤️

@mytwistedsoul

Aww I'm so glad you shared ❤ I know it firsthand, it is not easy to believe the good stuff, specially when there's so many existing thoughts that tell us otherwise. 🥲

"Someone else's opinion of you does not have to become your reality." -- Les Brown

We need to make space for the good to enter in our minds and our lives, consider an example? Your mind is like a box, it has limited space and can only contain as much, now when it is filled with bad thoughts (that others have made you to believe about yourself) the good thoughts will struggle too much to enter and make their space too, what we can do, is, to become friends of the good thoughts, and the good everything--- gotta be welcoming and inclusive, aye? :P so now when we help the good enter the box, the not so good ones will have to shoooo or shrink and keep getting smaller till they poof over time --- It is easier said than done, I know ❤ but it is possible and we don't need no one day Magic, we can be patient and shoo away one negative thought, replacing with a good one, just one by one, and we so got thissss.. more *hugs*

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou 😯 once again I'm speechless. Thank you. So I have to be honest and well my head filled in the part about your mind being like a box - of chocolates you never know what you're going to get lol - sorry about that it but it made me laugh

You're absolutely right though and it has to be done one step at a time or it becomes an information overload and it's too much to take in all at once. The past few days I've been using the affirmation that not everyone has to like me but not everyone will hate me. The first part was a gift from a *friend* the second I added on - took me months to come up with that lol

Seriously though - Thank you for your reply - for your kindness and your encouragement ❤️ I appreciate it

@mytwistedsoul

Aw I understand feeling speechless hehe, no worries xD and ofcourse, absolutely no reason to thank me. ❤

I'm glad you shared lol, the chocolate box really can be unpredictable andddd I can see why that would make you laugh, so yay, we got some laughs out of this too. :D

That's an awesome affirmation, Soul, affirmations somehow impact more when we come up with it ourselves and actually believe in or atleast try to (lol) -- I understand the months long struggle but yay, you came up with something that you believe in and that's more than enough, your *friend* didn't give you the full picture, I see :') soooo again, I'm very proud of you for coming up with that lovely addition. ❤

Now is the time to tell you that I don't accept thankyou's from friends :) yes, you heard it hehe. The most I can accept as a replacement for thanks is well, hugs, pizza or cookies -- pick whatever that suits you! 😛

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou I have a delivery 😁

@mytwistedsoul

Aw darn too much confusion, I'm gonna "taste" them all one by one --- thankieees, deliveries like these are my most favorite ever! 🥰

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Lol! Its good to have choices 😁

@mytwistedsoul. I’m sorry to but in but I must agree with @sunisshiningandsoareyou said about you. 🌺.

@adventurousBranch3786 Hey Branch :) Thank you ❤️ and you're never butting in

@adventurousBranch3786

Hey hey lovely Branch, nice to see you. ❤️

Easter Bunny comes :)

Happy Easter everyone!

@mytwistedsoul

Made my day aww! They are super adorable! Happy Easter! ❤

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou 😊

@mytwistedsoul

Happy easter to you too Soul <3 also, happy belated birthday! I hope your dreams came true 😊

@emotionalTalker2260 Aww! They're so cute Emo! Thank you! 😊 Thank you for the happy birthday too!

You've been kind of quiet too - I hope you're doing ok - but it's ok to be not ok too ❤️ I think you're awesome no matter what

Can't argue with this little guy ;)

@mytwistedsoul

yeah, I have been quiet 😮 but, I am always thinking of all my wonderful forum buddies (: things are hard for me atm. But they’ll be okay. I also chose that I’m failing my course (on purpose) I hate the fact my parents made me study something they knew I would hate 😀

also, you are awesome as well 😊 love the dinosaur gif <3

@emotionalTalker2260 I'm sorry things are hard right now - I hope you don't mind my saying that I admire your attitude about it. That - it'll be ok :)

@mytwistedsoul

😀 I mean, I also have the attitude to laugh in a hospital (which I did do last week even though I was under observation XD). But yeah 😀 hehehe. I don’t want to do my course (: *accepts good vibes* *sends cookies* 😮

@emotionalTalker2260 I bet that got you a few looks from the nurses 😁

I think you should have a say in what you want to learn - just my opinion anyway

Mmm - cookies! Thanks 😁

@mytwistedsoul

I mean, the orderly was laughing along with me, he was such a bright and happy lad (: and I was gonna say “I am a celebrity, get me out of here” as I was leaving, but nah, I didn’t say it ;-; and I will say what I want 😃 idc if I get kicked out if my course. And you’re welcome for the cookies <3 (:

@emotionalTalker2260 It nice having an orderly like that - rather then some sour faced grump. I bet he would have played along with your superstar status lol

@mytwistedsoul

XD hahaha he did. I even got a warm toasty blanket 😊 happy days hahahaha

Been stuck on this one the past few days

Don't hate me - Badflower

@mytwistedsoul

@selflessSpruce1515 Hey Spruce :) How are things in your grove? Welcome back - did you have a nice Easter?

@mytwistedsoul Guess I could have read your thread first lol :p

@mytwistedsoul

Haha, it's okay! No worries xD

@mytwistedsoul

Hey hey, Soul! Things in my grove are a little chaotic, but okay overall. I had an okay Easter, not the best, but it was good to get a little break from doing schoolwork and to focus on my irl for a while. 😊 ❤️

How are things in your world? ❤️

@selflessSpruce1515 I'm glad you got a break from school work for alittle :) gives you a chance to recharge your batteries

I'm sorry to hear its chaotic but glad that it's ok overall ❤

Things in my world are ok - I'm sort of shut down I guess but trying to find my way back. Thank you for asking 🙂

@mytwistedsoul

Aww, I definitely know that kind of feeling, and I hope that you find your way back real soon. I believe in you, Soul, and I'm here for you always 🤗 ❤️

@mytwistedsoul
