So another day, I heard this saying: “Only dead fish goes with a flow.”
And wow, what a reaction it struck in me. ⚡️
Many will tell you that going with a flow is a good thing but here is why it's not.
Going with the flow means living life unconsciously on autopilot without interfering with a thing.
It means I am not consciously creating what I want. ❌
I am not trying to change a thing, but I am silently hoping that something will change. ❌
It means I am accepting whatever comes my way... Perhaps I don't even pay attention. ❌
And here’s a scary thing...
Living on autopilot sooner or later makes one feel lost or stuck because, like that dead fish, she risks ending up nowhere. Certainly not in the place she chose. 🚀
You deserve all the love in the world, darling.
You deserve to be seen, heard, understood, and deeply cared for at all times.
You deserve to be held tightly on those dark, lonely nights.
💖 Real glow can't be sold in a package of foundation or fancy powder I was thinking of getting for Christmas.
💖 We glow when we feel happy, satisfied with moments of life, and ourselves at large.
💖 True glow has energy like no other. It's real.
💖I went into motherhood blindly without any expectations and purposely closed my eyes and ears to stories that I heard from fellow mamas.
💖Because lesson number one: stop forcing your reality on others.
💖 Every experience we have is so unique that it's impossible to predict what your baby is going to behave like, what you will be feeling, and how well you will be adjusting to a life-altering role as a mother.
💥 When I spilled the news to my friends over one of those Sex And The City -like lunches, we all knew it's an end of an era as one of us was moving a giant step further of becoming a mother.
💥 And it was me - a girl that would never miss a party.
💥 But I didn't want to be a girl who stayed too long at the party.
