Trying is enough

...See more Hiyaaa beautiful people ! Hoping everyone is doing well and staying safe 💜 Let's talk about Trying , and the power of trying today. Remember when you tried something for the first time, how did you feel about it ? Was it exciting, nerve wracking , nonchalant , mix of everything at once ? But hey, however the feeling was , you did try it then and perhaps you're engaging in it ever since . Sometimes our best efforts might not be rewarded with the best results or even results we would like to see , but just simply trying and giving our best is quite something too ~ worth a praise and worth reassuring to keep on trying again and worth a pat on your back for even thinking about trying and willing to take a step forward. 💜 What is something you tried recently? How do you feel about it ? ( remember, it is one thing to get what you wanted to by that trial but another to even have the will to try at something, we want to acknowledge our efforts even when the results are not what we want or not quick to show up for us ) 💜 What is something you'd like to try soon ? Why ? ( this could be literally anything , from wanting to learn a new language to starting your own business to engaging in some self care practice etc ) Hello ATW : @1Vanillaicecream @AddictedTealover98 @Adeline12345 @AlwaysRedeemable @Angela243 @azuladragon34 @Bint @BleuPhoenix @Bosslady9601 @bouncyVoice4149 @BrightHeart1996 @bubblyblueberry89 @Char202425 @ClairePotato @confidentangel2369 @CupidtheKingofLove @cuteOrange213 @Daishy @DepressedTransAlex @DreadfulHannah30 @Drishtiizz @dtanushree @fairmindedWisteria3450 @fantasticDancer50 @frostyIris5554 @GeneralIroh @GhostLily @healingWhisper @herealways27 @hopefulArrow2212 @Hypnotize2004 @iwishuwell @jayahere @K87 @Kenn13chan @LovetoGod @lyricalAngel70 @magicalPainting28 @miraculousheart9815 @MoonlightHelper1 @mxmes @navyHouse3677 @NimoSayeda @orangeAster4 @peppapigisqueen08 @phantom25 @Redskyi @Resourcefulsouth @RideaRainbow @scarletSugar3797 @sincere5772 @SoMicha @StillPlanet @stjarnagrace @SunflowerOnTheHill @Sunisshiningandsoareyou @SweetTortoise @sympatheticCup6312 @TessMo @theheartproject @treeHugger7 @uniqueApricot19 @VerseArt @WelcomeToChat @whackamoo @WhiteDolphin27 @YaboiRogers @Zulegirl Welcome aboard : @0Butterflies0 @sociablePenguin1666 @gioexx @greenYard2803 @whitealbum @acm21 @Zevin @cosmicMeson3141 @kohlrabi1 @Shadowhunter273 @Bitchcraft33 @CreativeRebellion @TeaAddict22 @francisbaker22 @comfortingHope3101 @Paula00 @rimibks @Empressenergy99 @LucasFiction @DifferentWoodz

June 13th
...See more Our community is a global melting pot of diversity with people from different ethnicities, identities, religions, and cultures. Every day is a chance to learn something new about each other, and our world. This month we're honoring the LGBTQ+ community. I'd love to know how you celebrate Pride in your country and/or culture! Here's a few questions to get the conversation started: 🌈 If not in June, when is Pride in your part of the world? What do the celebrations look like? (Pictures are welcome!!) 🌈 Are there any personal ways you celebrate Pride? Traditions or special activities?  🌈 Is there a Pride event you want to go to somewhere in the world? (e.g. NYC March, Stonewall Columbus Pride) Share your stories and help us learn more about the global LGBTQ+ experience! And remember, celebrating Pride is not only for LGBTQ+ folks. If you’d like to show your solidarity with the LGBTQ+ community during Pride and year-round, you can and should!

What’s up with her?
by ilovemycat16

...See more Okay so I’m going to start off with a little bit of context: im 20 years old, will be 21 in April. I’ve dealt with irregular periods for awhile now. Sometimes they start when predicted & sometimes they’re late. They usually will start late whenever I have a lot going on & am dealing with lots of stress, which has been pretty much frequent here lately. It’s been common for my periods to be irregular & truly it doesn’t bother me, there’s always more factors that play into it being late. If I were to have no stress or less stress, they would probably be regular. my boyfriends mom is constantly telling me I need to get on birth control to regulate my periods & I always tell her that’s not something I want to do & don’t feel it’s necessary. She will try to pressure me by saying that she made me an appointment to get put on birth control or to get another form of it. She made her daughter go on her 18th birthday to get a birth control implant & she constantly will tell me how much it has helped. She will tell me that her daughter used to have irregular periods too and that the implant made her periods worse for the first 6 months & then it went away & she no longer has a period at all. Now, me & her daughter are VERY close, so we talk about a lot. The implant is something that she did not want & it has been nothing but trouble for her since she’s had it. I’ve told her how her mom has said it helps so much & makes you feel better & regulates your period, to which she said none of that was true. She has always been a skinny girl, she said she’s never been over 150 but after getting the implant, she gained 30 pounds. On top of that, she said it has made her skin look & feel awful & she feels very insecure. my boyfriends mom had made me numerous appointments to try & get me on some sort of birth control & her reason is always “to regulate my periods”. I never go to any of the appointments because I do not want or need birth control right now. I’ve never been on it & don’t want to. My OWN mother never told me I had to take it or tried to force me to. My mama has always told me that it’s my decision & if I want to be on it, then we will arrange for it. She never made me feel pressured into taking birth control, EVER. me & my boyfriend have been dating for 2 years and his mom has always told me I needed to be on something. Me & my bf obviously do the deed but we’re both still young & not wanting kids right now so we take other precautions & use other contraceptives to be safe. His mom told me that in 2025, I need to make birth control a priority & get on it. no matter how much I tell her that I don’t want or need it, she still pushes. What do you think about this?? Opinions? Advice?
