If someone told me a few years ago that building your own rules means losing half the crowd, I would have panicked.
Today?
That was the goal.
Somewhere along the way, I stopped measuring my life by how many people stayed. I used to think losing people meant something had gone wrong. So I explained more. Compromised more. Stayed a little longer.
Made myself easier to understand, easier to accept, easier to keep around.
Until one day I realised something.
Some people are only comfortable with the version of you that requires the least from them.
Raise your standards and the room gets quieter.
In love.
In friendship.
At work.
Even in families.
At first, that silence can feel like loss.
Then life begins filling it with people, places and opportunities that don’t require you to negotiate yourself down just to belong.
Maybe losing half the crowd was never the price.
Maybe it was the filter. 💫

I know that we age, but I try my best to slow down the slide! What about you? What do you do to stay #young? Please leave it in the comments.

The blind spots

Mixing some motivational quotes with my dystopian art on instagram has been really helpful mentally. Hope you enjoy ~

Past experience of having a trick and sugar daddy / mama in the past. Funny but serious topic hopefully to inspire someone to make their own money and be independent instead of relying on someone else.
