Admirable Extensions

The best thing that could have ever happened to me was discovering that I was more than enough. When I started creating healthy boundaries in my life, I discovered I had always been the magic. I had always had the power. I had always been that girl. Sometimes, we fear what we could become because of the conditions we are surrounded by. Sometimes, your environment is small, too limiting, and sometimes toxic. You have to be okay with being the villain in other people's stories. You can't live your life trying to please everyone and make yourself happy. The most important decision you could ever make in your life is to choose yourself. Self-love is more than looking good; it's also about setting healthy boundaries. Trauma bonding is not love. Some people are not capable of loving you or giving you the things you deserve. Self-validation should not come from others. Some people are simply a distraction from your journey. Your peace is priceless. Create memories with those who genuinely love you. Stay away from people who are secretly competing with you. Your enemies can sometimes be your friends and your lovers. Not everyone around you is cheering for you; some are simply waiting for your downfall or making sure you never grow beyond them. What I'm trying to say is that a lot of things we've grown up thinking are love—like being loyal, being supportive, and showing up for people who never show up for you—are simply distractions from becoming our ultimate selves. Check your boundaries and check yourself. You are worth it 💕
