Please stop letting your beautiful creative ideas, fantasies, and talents go to waste because you think you’re not good enough/lack of confidence. Have faith in your abilities, you deserve your own success. And while it might feel creative to just think of these ideas, they’re actually dying a lonely death when you don’t do anything with them. They don’t get their chance to add anything to the world. To affect someone. To spark something. You got this. You can do this. Just keep putting in the work. ✨ - art: @indg0 regram: @williegreene_
Not everyone will appreciate what you do for them. You have to figure out who's worth your kindness and who's just taking advantage. Please protect your energy. 🧡

It’s a revolutionary and beautiful thing seeing proud black parents supporting their LGBTQ+ youth. This is how you do it! 🧡
The only thing you will never get back is your time. Don’t be afraid to leave a situation just because you’re afraid you’re not going to find somebody else. Be afraid of settling for something you know isn’t real.

Isn't it crazy how so many of your experiences as a girl are based on whether you are perceived as attractive or not?
Find a soul that doesn’t lose appreciation once they are used to you. 🧡🧡⁣⠀ -⁣⠀ photo: @entriesbymarlon⁣⠀ muses: @disaahb @jalen.xx
You can’t expect yourself to go from a negative mentality to a positive one overnight, but every time you correct a bad thought you are growing! So focus on your growth, not the fact that you aren’t “there” yet.⁣ 🧡 quote: Lori Deschene
