So 10 years ago Tumblr was my entire life, I would literally spend hours on here every single day without fail but then I went to Uni and my life changed. 

For some reason today I found myself logging back onto my early adulthood. 

Was anyone else a Tumblr user a decade ago? I’d love to know how things were different for you then. Has your life gone the way you thought it would? Because mine definitely hasn’t. 

growing up.

when does ‘grown up’ happen? when does being independent, self sufficient, your own damn person happen?

how do you go to bed a kid &wake up a grown ass adult?

I need to take the course, read all the books. is there a youtube tutorial for this shit?

no? “because sometimes things happen to us that we are not equipped to deal with”

maybe becoming an adult is not about knowing more. maybe becoming an adult is about having the confidence to try&fail. to make big scary mistakes.

No one taught me how important it was to love yourself. They taught me the idea that one day I would be loved my someone, and it would be the right one. But why wasn’t I taught how to truly love myself, and embrace myself. If I knew that, I think my life would be different. I wish I knew how beautiful I was, I wish I shone bright, I wish I did all the things I felt I was too ugly or not good enough to do. I wish I loved myself, before I let anyone try and love me.

This is how much Ganon has changed from 8 weeks old to 16 weeks old! My gosh do they grow quickly And he hardly even looks like a puppy next to Mia because he is almost as big as her! He is our handsome big baby

Behind every great daughter there is an amazing dad who bestowed his trust in her, raised her, supported her , nurtured her and always reminded her ‘ SHE IS A BORN WARRIOR’. I found no point in raising girls with so comfort and delicacy. I am not questioning anyone’s upbringing. But girls should be raised in a way that they are ready to face all hardships. They should know how to make and where to make  sacrifices, compromises and where not. They should be taught raising the voice is their birth right and in no circumstances they should be suppressed by the society norms . Because parents will be for a short time with their daughters what will left at the last is the advice, the love , the lessons taught to them which they can pass to their generation. This is necessary because a woman is one who can build a family or destroy it.  My Grandpa says “ I have raised my daughters like a tree full of fruits,flowers and green leaves so that if anyone tries to shake them they will always shed gratitude , love and kindness ,if anyone tries to break them they will not because their roots are firm.”

Spinning, dizzy, drunk, with happiness.

Playing the game, unafraid of the consequences.

Playing to win, but who cares if I lose?

This game is fun

The guessing game.

Falling, falling, falling

Into a routine.

An everyday with Jane kind of thing

Back roads and drives with Jane. 

Imagining, the kind of life I could have.

In a house, with a spouse, a few kids.

A garden, built with my own two hands.

Dig into the soil,

Feel the earth in your fingerprints.

This is what life was meant to be.

You and me. 

Here, happy.

Everything is right in the world.

Everything is okay.

Nothing bad, nothing scary

Soft blankets, safe beds.

Nothing can harm us here, 

Its the rules.

Laughing

Childlike innocence

I am perfectly fine

Right where I am.

I just want a family.

I’m a mom friend with no one to mom

The one thing I’ve always known I needed.

I’m starting to realize I may not get.

Breathe 

Its not real.

The monsters in the closet

The one under the bed

Outside your window,

They’re not real.

The true monsters are much more terrifying darling.

Knowing your greatest fears.

Your deepest insecurities 

You’ve fought so hard to hide.

They just come out

When you try to soothe the burn with liquor.

Are you sure dear?

That you want to take this road?

Do you know your way home?

You way back to your families land.

Where it all began

If you know the way

By all means,

Take that step.
