you are good enough

the-moon-loves-the-sea:

When your living space is a mess, don’t ever look around and think you should have managed better. Don’t look at the chaos as all the things you should have done. Look around and think, “Look how exhausted I’ve been. I have been saving my energy to save myself and that is right.” And then ask yourself what is one thing you could do that would make you feel more at home in your space–one thing you can manage right now. If that’s fluffing up your pillows, if that’s putting the cups back in the kitchen, if that’s writing a list of fruit you haven’t had in a while and going out to buy it, if it’s picking up your laundry from the floor and putting it on the chair, if it’s wiping the dust off your crystals–that’s enough. Do what would help you now. It’s okay to be tired. It’s okay to be a mess. It’s enough to do what would help and leave the rest.

Nothing I’ve read has changed me more than “you do people a favor by accepting their help” like I repeat this constantly to so many people because it’s true!!! People like to feel useful, they like to feel kind, they like to feel like they have an ability to impact people’s lives so just let them!! Not everything is a thing to be owed back — accept people’s kindness without making a competition out of it

shock:

accepting that you’re objectively weird & owning it is infinitely better than being constantly desperate to appear normal to people who don’t even matter to you

shoutout to paris hilton for not abandoning her ‘micropig’ 

when it turned out that it was a normal piggy who grew up to be a big fat fatty piggu

Actually that’s pretty standard size for a micro pig. Pigs are ENORMOUS, dude. The average pig on a farm is 7 feet long and over 700 lbs. A normal pig would be much bigger than Hilton.

EDIT: This is a photo of the world’s smallest recognized breed of pig, the kune kune. I’m sorry cartoons lied to you all.

This is the pot bellied pig, another famous “small” breed.

This is your average adult pig.

Big ole’ pigs.

Wild boars can feed people for a very long time! I believe this one was 1800 lbs. (largest piggy ever was about 1,984 lbs)

I NOW KNOW WHY WILD BOARS WERE SO DANGEROUS IN THE DARK AGES HOLY SHIT; RICHARD III I TAKE BACK ALL THE TRASH I TALKED ABOUT YOUR HOUSE CREST GOOD GOD THAT’S TERRIFYING.

The mighty boar is a serious beast.

Dear Self,

• It is okay.
• It is okay to go to sleep when you are tired, even if other people aren’t yet.
• It is okay to sleep as many hours as you need, rather than as few as you can survive on.
• It is okay to eat when you are hungry, even if other people aren’t yet.
• It is okay to eat food you actually like, and you don’t always have to share it.
• It is okay to put the heating on if you are cold. Or wear more clothes.
• It is okay to use enough hot water for baths to be actually warm.
• It is okay to stop talking if you run out of spoons. 
• It is okay to play the albums you want to hear rather than only the ones you know the people around you like.
• It is okay to say “no” to people.
• It is okay to say “no” to people even when the question was “are you okay?”
• It is okay to have free time.
• It is okay to switch your phone off sometimes.
• It is okay to change your mind.
• It is okay to stop liking things. Or start.

• It is okay to make mistakes.
• It is okay to take up space in the world.
• It is okay to expect and ask for fair and humane treatment from others.
• It is okay that you exist.

Love,
Me.

I needed to hear this. And remember this

Um, this is a great post and all. But are we not going to question “It is okay to stop talking if you run out of spoons.”?

#How are you using up spoons?#Why do you need spoons to talk?

Oops, sorry! When I made this post I didn’t expect it to get anything like the readership it has, and as far as I knew most of my friends/followers are already familiar with spoon theory. In my case my difficulties are mental not physical, but it’s the same basic idea - after a certain point I just don’t have anything left to think with some days, and “spoons” works to explain that too.

And while I’m here - this post has just gone over 4k notes, making it far and away the most popular thing I’ve ever posted. I’m both really happy that it’s apparently helped so many people and really sad that so many people needed it! Love to all of you, take care of yourselves. <3
