Sometimes I find myself doing a little self-reflecting… and today this is what’s on my heart. 💭
If someone doesn’t put the same energy into your friendship that you do, at what point do you stop giving so much of yourself?
Friendship shouldn’t always feel one-sided. You shouldn’t always be the one checking in, reaching out, showing up, making plans, or trying to keep the connection alive. Energy should be reciprocated.
And another thought…
If you’re constantly being told that you’re “too much” for certain people, are those people truly meant for you?
Maybe I am too loud. Maybe I love too hard. Maybe I care too much. Maybe I give too much. Maybe my personality fills up a room. But I’m starting to realize that I don’t need to make myself smaller just to make other people comfortable.
The right people won’t ask you to dim your light. ✨
So today’s reminder to myself: Match energy, protect your peace, and never shrink yourself just to fit into a space you may have already outgrown. ❤️
