Words Matter - 5 Superpowers That Build Confidence, Character, and Courage in Relationships
You CAN do it! Love yourself first. It is vital, no, imperative, that you take care of your own needs; emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental. We get caught in a trap of being “nice”, so others will like us. Your body is an ecosystem in itself that needs balanced love and attention. When you do this, you contribute in a meaningful and loving way to others, that have their own ecosystem to take care of. It’s okay to say no when a part of you needs quiet time. It’s okay to ask for a hug when needed. Reciprocity is key to a sustainable relationship. It allows others to just be, without taking it personally, and powerfully, they will do the same for you. Be courageous: ask for what you want. Be clear and specific. When you honour your needs, you model behaviour that allows your friends and partners to foster theirs. We each have our own work. Know where the boundaries begin and end.

Relentlessly
I gave a man asking for change at the gas station a hoodie last night. It had been sitting in my trunk for a while, and I have more at home. The nights are getting colder. I gave a woman a fanny pack the week before that. She said she needed it, so I took it off my waist, emptied the contents into the front seat of my car, and handed her the bag. A hot pink Lululemon Christmas gift from a boss who spent our bonuses on trinkets we could use but not as much as the money. I didn't need it. I resented it but used it nonetheless. I took myself out today with my last twenty dollars for the week. The goal was to write and forget for a minute. But I'm asked for help by several people along the walk and give the twenty dollars away.
