I could’ve stayed mad.

I could’ve stayed stuck.

But I chose my wings over my wounds.

I learned the hard way that sweet words aren’t truth, real love isn’t blind, and rushing into empty games will cost you everything.

This isn’t about burning out

it’s about burning through what tried to consume me.

HOW I STAYED WITH MY MIDDLE SCHOOL BF ❤️

1) actions speak louder than words : it’s always easy to tell someone you love them, but it means so much more to SHOW them that you love them 2) focus on strong communication : remember that it is you and them vs the problem instead of you vs them! Just talk about everything and communicate ev

She could’ve called me. Please help yours!

I’m torn up in ways I can’t explain. My best friend committed suicide and I’m so mad at her. We’d both tried to take our lives before, talked about it endlessly, and she promised me she’d never do this. Never. She was one of a kind, so kind, so beautiful, the type to gently flip tiny bugs back o

Why I Stayed In an Apartment I Hated

I didn’t stay because the apartment experience was good, I stayed because I kept convincing myself it would get better. My internal dialogue was loud: “I’ll move next year.” “It’s not that bad.” “It’s only messy sometimes.” “Once money gets better, I’ll leave.” “She’s my best friend… we’ll

How I stayed organized when applying 4 grad school

Ever stayed even though something felt off?

I didn’t want to believe it. Every time something felt off, he would gaslight me and make me feel crazy for even asking. If I questioned why he was distant, he’d say I was ‘overthinking.’ If I brought up something that hurt me, he’d flip it and make it my fault. The truth is… the signs were ther

I Fed Grief Tea and It Stayed

There was a time I moved because I could… not because I was called. I knew I had the ability. I felt the pull to do more. But I hadn’t yet learned how to govern what God placed inside of me. So I stayed busy… but not always aligned. And that’s where the frustration came from. That tens

Proof That I Stayed

I finished my first journal. Not all at once. Not in a straight line. But page by page, breath by breath. This journal held my thoughts when I didn’t have the words, my feelings when they felt too heavy to carry alone. I didn’t know where this would lead—only that I needed somewhere safe to land

God stayed when everyone else moved on.

People came and went. Promises changed. Support faded. But God stayed. He didn’t leave when things got messy. He didn’t walk away when she was tired, hurting, or unsure. He remained — steady, faithful, and close. When everyone else moved on, God leaned in. He held her together, resto
