It doesn’t matter who the fuck they are— PROTECT YOUR SPACE. PERIODT. Because ain’t nobody gonna do that shit for you. You are responsible for your fine ass. I will not tolerate victim mentality from anyone. I will not allow myself to be manipulated anymore. The guilt trip thing doesn’t work anymore— yeah, it sometimes rattled my cage, but I don’t let it consume me.

HEALED PEOPLE HEAR THINGS DIFFERENTLY. It’s fucking true. I’m in the process of healing many areas of my life and I know my triggers. It’s up to me to manage my feelings and look at things objectively, when “triggers” occur. I’m getting better at it— getting better at pausing and not reacting. And not getting defensive. Fuck, I swear, it feels like all my life I’ve been fighting. Fighting against ME— fighting about WHO I WAS. And that’s just it—- there is who I WAS and there is who I AM. Who the fuck cares who I WAS??— it’s who I AM NOW, that matters.
