A Journey In Vulnerability

Hi friends!

Today is the first time all summer that I haven't had to work and it's been sunny! It's been such a rainy couple of months. I love the rain, don't get me wrong, but the sun and I have always been bffs, lol. There is just something about feeling it's heat on my skin that is at once, completely calming and completely energizing! Of course, after about a half hour of enjoying soaking up some sun, the clouds started rolling in again. But it was enough to make me happy :)

I imagine the sun was quite eager to kiss every inch of skin you allowed it. ;)

Becoming A Warrior

Something happened the other night, and it took me a few days to figure out how I felt about it, and I've decided to share a little bit with you all.

Sometimes it takes someone treating you poorly to recognize what it is to be treated well. I was casually involved with someone who was always, whether intentionally or not, making me feel like an afterthought, a convenience, and did nothing to boost my self esteem. I don't judge this person though, I think we were just too different and they didn't really understand what I needed, try though they might. Anyway, after a falling out, I cut ties with this person, and around the same time, I met someone else. This new person is the opposite. Always willing to be there for me, making me a priority in their life, and always looking for ways to prove to me that I am strong and that I have worth beyond what others see on the surface.

Months go by, and I fall in love with and am loved in return by person #2. Then, a couple of nights ago person #1 contacts me out of the blue. Seems like an innocent enough thing, except it made me angry. It made me realize how poorly I had allowed myself to be treated, simply because I didn't yet know how it felt to be treated like someone's princess.

I didn't know what to do. I owe nothing to person #1, but it's difficult for me to be rude and purposefully ignore someone, and even worse if I try to be direct and stand up for myself. But an amazing thing happened. I remembered all the times person #2 told me how strong I was, how much they respect my strength, and how they always give me their opinion and support when I ask for it, but never try to force me to go along with what they think I should do. In that moment I realized I'm a totally different person from the one who accepted poor treatment because she didn't know to expect better. I've found my inner strength and I was able to use it without feeling guilty for being bitchy or worrying about whether other people would react negatively.

I'm not just a Princess to the man I love, but I am a warrior equal in strength to him or anyone else. :heart:

I don't wander into as many threads as I used to. But for some reason I did today. I wish I could tell you how beautiful this was to read. But words fail me. Everyone deserves a love like that, as well af the chance to see how being loved like this, changes how we feel about ourselves.
I'm happy to read that you found the courage to stand up for yourself, and see how you truly deserve to be treated. We all want to be someones princess. ⚘⚘⚘⚘

Warrior Princess’ are THE BEST Princess’! :D

I don’t think there is any greater love than that which exists between two people who appreciate and respect one another. Happy for you and guy #2! :)
 
so sarcastic. boo.

Either way, hope you're doing well. Have fun.

No sarcasm intended. I genuinely missed the chance to banter back and forth and getting to share a little bit of my life with everyone who posts.

Thank you, I am doing great! Hope you are too:)
