    Sis….. I needed to hear this at this moment. Thank you! I’m a big 54 and I am with a glee in my step, moving on from a very long relationship with someone I outgrew.I outgrew my Suga daddy😂 He saved me at a time when I needed it but now I’m grown and need space for myself. I’m selling a home that I haves loved and know that it’s the right decision. I’m in a new season and you may have another season. Life is ever changing and we keep growing and moving forward! I say every morning…. Breathe Bitch, you got this and you will be fine!!! So will you! Breathe Lady… you’ve got this ❤ Peace and Love sis

    I feel comfortable enough to say... Shi, this is beautiful. There's nothing like a girl who became a woman before her very eyes. My journey was exactly that... a journey, not who I am. Thank you for making me open these 51 year old eyes and loving the girl that I used to be and the woman I am!!!

    I could relate with you on so many levels. I was raised by my grandmother, parents were very young when they had me. In and out of toxic relationships. I'm 54 and it's been a journey. I can finally say I'm in love with me and it feels so good. I'm not in a relationship and I'm not looking.

    I appreciate the softness and warmth of this, even as you’re speaking on tough experiences. I think that’s what cultivating love at our big ages should be like- soft, gentle, with lots of grace and self-forgiveness along the way.

    Like you, I don’t know where I would have been without my praying grandmother🙏🏾 My God! Hallelujah! I am grateful and I am grateful to know you this kinship. My mom was 15 and turning 16, so she had to leave me with my grandparents who raised me. The growth looks amazing on you and it’s so inspiring! I am grateful for you❤️🙏🏾

    Incredibly grateful for this “heart” moment, Tashira. You are such a blessing and God uses you in remarkable ways. Kinship is at the core of this beautiful message. Family taking care of family. I honor your vulnerability and truth. Because of you, we all are free to do our “mirror work” and examine our truths without judgment, reprisal, or fear. Thank you for giving us the liberated safe space to discover how to love ourselves with common humanity, self-care, forgiveness, and compassion. I dare to dare to find unspeakable joy on this miraculous journey of amazing self-love. Thank you for seeing all of US! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

    Just a really tender moment, thank you for sharing and I appreciate your journey. I feel the love of your tribe through your eyes. Know that you are loved and as you continue this life journey, all of the threads will continue to weave a beautiful tapestry of "your" life. Only select the threads that bring you joy, but should you be faced with a thread that doesn't suit your tapestry....just snip it. Sending much light and love.

    Beautiful message! I do believe you have to love yourself before you can expect love in return. My last relationship wasn't healthy. As soon as I chose to separate myself, that's when I was introduced to my chocolate drop ❤. Love will come your way. You're a beautiful soul inside and out 💐

    How has love changed for you at a big age?

    • @cassiel0610
      @cassiel0610 Před 2 měsíci +1

      My perspective of love has become more gracious and grounded as I've aged. Gracious in that I know people are human and because of that I anticipate in their efforts to love me they may not always hit the mark. But grounded in that I know what I need and don't accept different because of what other people say I should be happy with... I know me. I know what I need and I know how I like to love. I love out loud and I want to be loved in the same way.

    • @i.l.746
      @i.l.746 Před 2 měsíci +1

      Radically! Truly honoring myself is at the centre of how I am relearning to love. I truly resonate so much. I envision myself at another mid boggling level when I get to a biggggger age 🥹

    • @ATLCExperience
      @ATLCExperience Před 2 měsíci +2

      I’ve learned to first heal. Not carry trauma over into the next and punish someone who isn’t responsible for making me bleed. Stopped trying to fill an inner void with temporary outer satisfaction. Accepting that everything and everyone has a purpose and to some there is a reason, a season and very few are meant for a lifetime. Being okay with all of that and dialing back to understanding me and what makes me happy and brings me joy. Valuing people and not things; realizing that I have more days behind me than before me so living with more intent, giving more grace, showing AGAPE Love and walking away in a heartbeat from anything that disturbs or doesn’t align with peace.
