When I was a kid I was obsessed with butterflies. I had a book so I could learn every little detail. I chased them in our country fields.⠀ Taking care of this delicate creature for a few days brought me back to those simpler times. ⠀ Yesterday this beautiful monarch emerged from the pupa I had in my sunroom. I've tagged her and put her outside so she can make her way south, but she is still on my porch. I'm worried it's too chilly, too windy. I might bring her in and try again tomorrow. But what do I know? I'm just a dumb human and butterflies follow the same paths as their previous generations north and south, year after year. Finding their way to the same trees as the ones that came before them.⠀ ⠀ Sometimes being an empath is the absolute worst.⠀ I wish I could fly with her.
Don’t be an asshole when someone unfollows you on social media. ⠀⠀ Don’t take it personally unless you’ve had a discussion, and you know for a fact that it’s indeed personal. (hey if your mom or dad unfollowed you maybe it was just fat thumbs and an accident?)⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ There are many reasons someone may unfollow you on social media. Maybe you post pictures of your new addition to the family, and the person unfollowing has had trouble with fertility. ⠀⠀ Maybe you are posting your enviable fitness results and the person unfollowing has had trouble with their health. ⠀⠀ Maybe you are extremely open and honest with your mental health struggles and the person unfollowing feels the tug to relapse into past bad habits when confronted with someone else’s battle. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ I could go on and on. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ We preach that no one should follow accounts on social media that do not make them feel good. (Because lets be honest we are driving 90 miles an hour into a new world where social media hinders mental health in so many ways.) But we should also express to those who get angered when we are unfollowed that it isn’t always personal. ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ Focus on yourself and your growth. What’s good for you isn’t always what’s good for someone else.
“...being with someone when you have these, these thoughts, it’s not fair. I just wanted to be free. I want to know everything about you. Not just the pretty things. The dark. The dirt. And I want you to see mine.” ⠀ ⠀ I couldn’t speak. I couldn’t move. I opened my eyes and stared at his own, they were trained on his hands. I willed him to look at me. ⠀ ⠀ He finally did, and he held my gaze. “What are you thinking?” I could barely think with his words and his hands on me. ⠀ ⠀ “I’m just trying to figure out if you’re real,” I managed. “Or if I just wrote you in my head, then placed you in my life to deal.”⠀ ⠀ https://buy.bookfunnel.com/mubfiobo79

Every damn day I learning this more and more.
Sometimes it just hits me. ⠀ ⠀ And I miss her so much.
“I think I’m in love with a fleeting moment. Wishing on this stolen thing we have. I know it’s shit to want someone to stay, but I want Sophie to stay. And not just because I want her here, but because I think she wants to stay. I listen to everything she says. My friends always give me shit for being in my head all the time, but I don't care. It’s who I am. I like to weigh and measure every word that comes out of other people’s mouths.” TEACH ME/FREE IN KU
I wrote a novella titled Teach Me about a secret summer romance with my two friends @thecynrodriguez and @christinakaylenhart ⠀ It was one of the craziest experiences of my life. Lots of stress. Lots of mania. ⠀ ⠀ Want to win an e-copy of all three?⠀ ⠀ Comment below telling me a memory from this summer.
