Love is splendor

AngelBrynner

Love is... waking up chastising yourself for bemoaning a shampoo & conditioner on the road run after a hot oil treatment ... only to be handed rum cake & gift set of luxurious Bahamian hair masques 30 min later as a thank you gift for mentally preparing your friend for her first Bahamian escape.

You could damn near be Superwoman[or man]...but if your adrenals are all askew... you're fucked.

Detox-wise, I just always found the hard stop never worked for me.

That coffee ritual is DOING something for you, deeper than the caffeine.

Instead of "weaning" off it...nourishingly getting to not needing it allows you to access "get to" head when you have it, in lieu of the "gots to have it" psychological (&then, by default, physiological) loop.

“God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.”

Reinhold Niebuhr

When you become more of yourself, every time something good happens through you, you create a wave of contagion for everyone around you, and a wake of inspiration for anyone following you. Say to yourself, “I want my wave to be a wave of mighty good! I want my wake to be a wake of inspiration and encouragement so that everywhere I go, I am a blessing!”
