Someone Said Empaths Aren't Real. They are real.
Someone told me empaths aren’t real. Here’s why that comment proves they are. 👀 First — using a mental health diagnosis as an insult says more about the person saying it than anyone they’re directing it at. Second — the idea that empaths don’t exist is almost always said by someone who has

What does it mean to dress like your grandma?
So tired of society telling you to start dressing a certain way just because you’re a certain age. We’re told our whole lives to dress how somebody else wants us to dress why are we still doing that in our 50s? dress in what makes you feel confident, beautiful and like you’re the main character now
