You will be better than okay. You will be magnificent.
It was not the feeling of completeness I so needed, but the feeling of not being empty.

that feel when
all ur friends are multitalented, smart, compassionate, and beautiful
It wasn’t until I started reading and found books they wouldn’t let us read in school that I discovered you could be insane and happy and have a good life without being like everybody else.

Repost @enchanteurr: Art of a woman delivering her child by herself – A woman’s strength is deep in a way you could never comprehend, she smiles even when she’s hurt, yet on her fragile shoulders she carries unbearable weight. She’s the type that whatever you give her, she multiplies… if you give her sperm, she’ll give you back babies. She’s divine and if you’re lucky to gain the loyalty of a good one don’t throw it away. God bless all the good women out there supporting each other, taking care of themselves, living a decent life, respecting & praying for their man, not getting violated by men, working hard and being the woman of virtue God called them to be.
Any kind of criticism could trigger my sense of worthlessness and drive me to defend myself by lashing out.

From a transpersonal perspective, the soul becomes veiled from consciousness by our identifications with the various influences that we experience, in particular in our early years. Consciousness becomes contracted through our conditioning and we take ourselves to be the various self images that make up our ego. The process of alchemy is to enable us to recover and remember the natural purity of the soul by freeing her from the impressions she has acquired.
