What's one thing you've stopped tolerating because you've learned to love yourself more? For me, it would definitely be choosing not to surround myself with people who aren't willing to grow. I used to hold on to relationships with people who would rather criticize, complain, or try to pull others down than do the work on themselves. Learning to love myself meant protecting my peace and surrounding myself with people who are committed to growing, healing, and becoming better. Growth often isn't about what we add. Sometimes it's about what we're no longer willing to accept. What's one thing you've stopped tolerating? Share below 👇

I’ve stopped tolerating not being chosen. I’ve learnt to accept what is. Surrendering & trusting more everyday!

A series of (un)fortunate events. Me loosing people, things, places and realizing that at the end of it all the only thing that really mattered and that I had, was me. This realization brought such an immense sense of peace into my world. Fighting reality was like swimming upstream. Nature is my guide and all around me, I see such immense beauty in it. It’s a constant reminder to allow & be still. There’s a quote that always stuck with me: “What do you do when you’re lost in the forest?” “Stand still cause the trees know where you are!” Accepting both the”good” & the “bad” knowing it’s what makes up this incredible, magical world we live in.
