Words of Support
Leave some words of support or encouragement for yourself or someone who has went through a traumatic experience
“True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future, not to amuse ourselves with either hopes or fears but to rest satisfied with what we have, which is sufficient”. It’s a quote by Seneca which often makes me reflect on how our trauma, although shaped differently for each one of us, might makes us feel... incomplete and unhappy. It reminds me how I, myself, am able to make myself happy and fulfilled. No need to go back where they hurt me. No need to follow the same steps. I’m doing what I’m doing despite (not “thanks to...”, DESPITE) what they did to me. And I’m enough.

It feels like that with me because I've been dealing with it for 6 years 😶

"Comparison is the thief of happiness."
For me its really easy to get wrapped up in how everyone else is doing. It's easy to compare my life and journey to theirs and get upset if I don't feel that i'm doing as "good" as they are. It's hard to avoid, especially with social media and comment sections and blogs. When I start to feel that way I try to remember that im comparing 100% of my experience with 5% of theirs, because we don't get to see 100% of what someone else is going through, failure or success. So keep your head down, keep doing your best even if you feel it isn't as good as someone else's best. As long as you do your best 100% of the time, there is nothing to feel bad for. Keep going.
@Neuronaut there is no reason to compare yourself to anybody else. work on being the best you, for you. feel good about you and it will show to others.
Thank you for the kind words 😊. Its a slippery slope and a Full time job keeping away from it. But as long as we try to be better than the person we were yesterday I think we can be a force to be reckoned with. Keep spreading the love @cccmjc and be kind to yourself 😀
@Neuronaut you are so positive!! thank you

reason: a quote from like I don't know where I got it from but I know it's been my brain for a long time but here's for someone who's been going through something very hard I want to give up on life.
""God put you on here for a reason so don't go giving up on life""
You are so much stronger than your experiences. You are more. Your value is not dependent on them.
There's always a happy ending but if it's not happy then it is not a ending.
