The Universe called. They said they’re proud of you and are glad to see you trying your hardest.
The Stars called. They said they’re so happy to see you shining brighter than they ever could and wish you could see yourself how they see you.
The Sun called. They said your warmth reaches where their’s never could and they ask that you share that warmth as wide as you can but want to remind you that it’s okay to hold your warmth back from those who would try to chill it because you need your warmth more than any hater ever could.
The Moon called. They said they’re glad you are able to show your face at certain times and hide your face at other times and that no matter how you have to present yourself to others, they see you and accept all the versions of you that you are.
The Shadows called. They said they’ve seen your hidden strength holding you up and will back you up when you need it. (They also apologize about the cold hands.)
The Mirror called. They said you don’t see yourself the way they see you and they want you to know that you are pretty and handsome and rugged and notable and to hell with societal standards of beauty. They like looking at you and wish you would look at yourself more.
I’ve said it before, but I’m saying it again. Apologize to your children when you are in the wrong. The minuscule hit to your pride is nothing compared to the impact you will have on your children. You are not an all powerful supreme being. You are human. You’ll make mistakes occasionally, and you’ll have to apologize for them. It’s ok to own that. You’ll be teaching them how to register wrong doing, how to correctly apologize for it, that admitting fault is an ok and necessary life skill to have. Most importantly, you’re showing them that they can trust you to do the right thing.
I will preach this to my dying breath. Apologize to your kids when you’re in the wrong.
As a parent, I COMPLETELY agree. Let children know early on that you are human and trying to do what you think is the correct manner raising them.
I love it when I see other parents reblog this in agreement. Like, this. Yes.
I think this practice of anons asking white witches questions that deal with racism needs to stop. No hate to the ones answering, but if you want an actual answer, why not ask witches of color?
I feel like anon feels like white witches will say something other than the obvious. At the same time, it shows that anon is most likely to listen to white witches over witches of color.
That’s an issue because people asking these questions know damn well that we’ll call that shit racist, but chance asking witches of color with the hope of them not saying its racist. And the moment it’s said it’s not racist by white witches, community believes it.
It becomes an issue because this happens a lot. White people’s opinions regarding issues of racism are almost always taken more seriously than people of color, not just in the witch community, but in others as well. And while i’m glad there’s a discussion being made, it’s like…why not have it with the people racism effects?
Saw this on Essence Magazine’s Snapchat and thought it would be helpful💕
Yeah seriously, sex education never told me any of this in school. Little me was panicked seeing the dark coloured bits and i had no clue that’s just the normal colour blood goes when its clotted or dried.
the pink slide is the same as the grey one? so i googled it and it seems pink is usually just anemia, low estrogen, or some other lack of nutrients.
or if its spotting between periods it could be from ovulation, or even caused by implantation (when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus lining a few days after conception)
