Real ways to start LOVING life

Romanticizing your life has kind of become a trend but I took that trend and made it real to me. I love the idea the trend brought with it but I wanted to make sure it’s understood correctly:

We are not romanticizing life when you just let everything be as it is, good or bad, or make excuses for bad or negative things. Ex: someone putting you down constantly but ignoring it to avoid conflict. You still need to have boundaries and stand up for them when need be.

What you should do is not letting the negative moods or actions of others affect how you act or the way you feel. Ex: someone cuts in front of you while driving, causing you to hit your brakes to slow down. When things like this happen, instead of trying to speed up to do the same or even flip them off, practice changing your mindset to remind yourself they may be in a hurry or having a bad day. And because of that, there’s no reason it needs to affect you. Leave it be and move on.

Feminine energy is something I’ve become super interested in and learning so much about. It’s different from being a feminist and it’s different from just having “girly girl” qualities. It’s something that goes a little deeper than these two.

The very first thing I learned about feminine energy and implemented in my life was to love who I already am and love what I already have. I took this along side that trend of romanticizing your life and put them together to make it real for me.

I try my hardest to not let others affect me in negative ways, I practice changing my mindset from talking down about myself to telling myself I love my qualities, I always look for the good, and do things that truly make me happy, not for anyone else but myself. Doing so makes my life feel so soft and romantic and I wouldn’t want it any other way. On days that don’t go as planned I try to sit through any emotions and work on anything when I’m feeling better and able to, but when the good days come back I get right back to where I was, not letting those bad days stop me. This is something that I wish everyone could experience and I long for the days when more and more people get to.

I’ll be posting more about feline energy but if you have any questions or opinions on romanticizing your life I would love to hear them!! 💗🌸🎀

... Read moreRomanticizing life can seem just a trend, but it’s about making it genuine through personal transformation. Start by recognizing that the negativity of others shouldn’t dictate your feelings or actions. Instead, practice mindfulness; respond with kindness rather than anger, understanding that everyone has their struggles. This practice helps to cultivate a loving and positive mindset. One key aspect is exploring feminine energy, which transcends traditional definitions of femininity and feminism. It’s about embracing your true self and appreciating your existing qualities. This encourages self-love and a soft, romantic approach to life, allowing daily interactions and challenges to feel more manageable and enriching. Developing this perspective can enhance your capacity to cope with adversities; when facing difficult times, allow yourself to sit with your emotions without judgment. Over time, this resilience will carry you through, helping you bounce back to appreciation when good days return. The journey may involve sharing your experiences and encouraging discussions around these themes, fostering a supportive community interested in personal growth and emotional wellness.
