We are what we repeatedly do.

2025/1/17 Edited to

... Read moreTo truly embrace personal development, it's essential to recognize that growth often stems from discomfort. The phrase 'The strongest project you'll ever work on is you' resonates deeply, as it emphasizes the importance of investing in oneself. Great achievements are frequently born from overcoming struggles. The quote, 'Work out because you love your body, not because you hate it,' serves as a powerful reminder that fitness should be an act of self-care rather than punishment. Additionally, remember that 'Muscles aren't made in comfort zones.' Pushing beyond familiar limits not only builds physical strength but also enhances mental resilience. As each rep brings you closer to your goal, validate your progress by acknowledging that every challenge faced contributes to your growth. Use the power of a positive mindset to guide you through the tough days, as they are often when you develop into the best version of yourself.

Bitterness and resentment are what happens when someone feels dismissed for too long. It builds over time. It builds when requests are brushed off.
When feelings are minimized.
When she reaches… and is met with defensiveness, avoidance, or denial.
When her needs are treated like inconveniences.

A graphic titled "CUSSING IS A SIN" features a red stop sign over an angry emoji with symbols for cuss words. It includes the text "STOP CUSSING" and lists Bible verses from Matthew, Ephesians, and James regarding speech and its impact.
Is Cussing a Sin?
Words are powerful. They can build up or tear down, heal or harm, bless or curse. In a world where cussing and crude language are often normalized, laughed at, or even celebrated, it’s important for believers to pause and ask an honest question: Does God care about the words we speak? The Bible

Will you do this to your kids?
I was spanked way too much as a child. Bare bottom with a leather belt. I’d get whipped multiple times over tiny stuff like refusing to eat my broccoli or forgetting to hang up my coat. It never felt right and I’m curious if others went through similar. Personally, I think spanking kids is wrong

Identifying high masking autism
I often wonder how my autism was missed as a child. I stimmed repeatedly, was quiet and a bit standoffish, and struggled to understand communication. Although it is obvious to me now, it clearly was not as obvious to my pediatrician in the 90s. I may have had what I think as stereotypical autistic
