Growth.

I'll just always be who I am while people come in and out of my life; the world keeps turning and I keep loving. I don't expect folks to love me, love takes hardcore gentleness; people who love are special. People don't understand the shit you go through to arrive to love of self. It's a painful and tiring journey that you do alone, and once you love yourself there is no turning back, no compromising, nothing. And you lose a lot of folks in your life because of that, they don't understand why you're not hanging on their every word or fitting into the mold they created for you. That upsets them and you turn into a person they can't fuck with. They can't believe you've gained the courage to sit with yourself and smile.

CLAIM YOURSELF!

In a world full of people trying to claim each other, OWN one another, get a hold of yourself and don't let go for anyone. Love is nothing if you don't have it for yourself. You are the source, you have to be claim it, be it, don't compromise. People will have you out here feeling less than because they can't understand you; move away from that shit and get into yourself. You're the source of power in your life, you make shit happen. Quit selling yourself to folks who walk around selling themselves. I have enough love for myself and for everyone else who fucks with who they are.

My cup runneth over.

So I obviously screen shot this back in October and never used them. I actually just realized that I had this sitting in my phone and decided to bring it to the blog. I honestly don't know why I didn't use pic stitch, maybe it's because I'm a weirdo lol. Adrianna tweets are typically on point, if you go through my favorites, you'll see that I've saved numerous ones. These set of tweets though really stood out to me because it was true. Now that I've went through some processes and revelations, these tweets mean more to me when I snapped them.

What she's peaking is the pure truth, it's like when you reach that point in your mind where you elevate yourself to a position where you just want different things out of life, you start looking at it differently. When that happens to you, when you finally open your eyes, all the negative things, all of the situations and people holding you back from being great, no longer matter. You get into this zone where very little bothers you, where not even the greatest challenge can faze you or make you the least bit uncomfortable.

Your mind becomes more at ease with who you are and the decisions you've made throughout your life. When that process becomes more and more fluid in your life, it allows greater things to enter your life. You build healthier connections, and it allows you to revisit your past and make positive lights out of situations that plagued your mind for so long. You know how to handle every little problem, and it allows you also to realize which ones are worth handling and which ones are worth just putting to the wayside.

All in all, it's just a great feeling that washes over you. You don't worry, you don't care about the unnecessary, and most of all, and you love yourself to the fullest. Loving yourself puts all of those things into perspective and once it does, and your vibes get put back out into the universe, you start noticing the things around you becoming affected by your positivity; it's like its borderline contagious.  And just like she said, all of those people that are so use to being in this little box that they have made for you, they don't understand the growth that you're experiencing. They're going say you've changed, they're going to call you different and most importantly, they will talk about you behind your back and say how much you've switched up on them.

But that's the final hurdle to get over, when you can shed yourself of those people that wish to keep you in the mud or the same spot in line you had, then you'll be able to go out and see the world for what it is. It's a very beautiful place when you let it be, with a lot of awesome people. There are going to always people that will do what you want to do, you just have to make sure that it's for the positive reasons and not for the reasons that are selfish and negative towards you.

People tend to think that you have to be selfish to get to this level, but when you elevate your mind, you realize that it's not being selfish, it's being real. It's being real with yourself, those around you and the world that has to hold your massive new outlook. There's no middle ground, people will either like the direction you are taking or they won't because they simply don't understand or want to accept it. Either way, it's up to you to keep pushing and making yourself better and better every single day.

Remember this one thing that Adrianna said, CLAIM YOURSELF! When you do, you'll see things change dramatically.

What do you think about love of the self? Do you think it's something more, or something different, let me know in the comments below.

Until next time guys.
