Mantra for life.
Really feeling this way lately. I’m not sure what clicked or changed in me in the last couple of months, but all of the sudden I’m just not willing to put up with people’s bullshit anymore. Feminist friend defending transphobic language? Someone repeatedly taking their shit out on me and being unwilling to acknowledge it? Get the fuck out of my life, because I don’t have time for you.
I think a lot of it probably comes from me finally learning how to truly love myself. How to put my wants and needs first. How to put myself first when someone is mistreating me, instead of making endless excuses for their behavior. How to trust my own feelings instead of arguing with them.
That last bit is something I still struggle with a lot. But I’m getting better, day by day.
And the bridges I burn will light the way.
