I'm really in love with people
just not always the actions they partake in.

i don't owe you anything
Human relationships, as we know them today, are built on a “give” and “take” perception. We use each other in order to attain some sort of fulfillment in each of our lives.

Life Lessons from My Therapy Clients
(By LISA BROOKES KIFT, MFT)
People can be incredibly brave. It is hard for some to even get through the door of a therapist’s office let alone open up their most wounded parts to another soul. I am touched by the strength of people to be able to present themselves in the ways that they do.
People can be incredibly insightful. It amazes me how wise and intuitive some are. It’s a joy to observe...

GUARD: I do actually. You can cross.
ME: How do you get through it?

ready and waiting
Sometimes, when I wake up feeling like Autumn, I make myself Pumpkin Oatmeal. (I do this by adding pumpkin to regular oatmeal and then seasoning it with a little salt, nutmeg, and cloves and a lot of cinnamon and splenda.)

If you can go back in time now, and give that 16...

don’t let what others say affect what you believe about yourself.
trust yourself.
compromising a little now means you’ll regret a lot later.
