Being gentle with ourselves. 💕
Hi everyone coming across 💙 I hope your all okay. :') and if not - I hope you know that it’s okay to feel what your feeling right now, and that it’s okay to take things slowly. One day at a time. 💜 I hope your staying strong :') and that you know your not alone. Never, ever alone. 💙
honestly, I’ve been thinking of making this post for a while but couldn’t exactly find the words (?) so I had to think about it for a while. 💜 I think many of us struggle with being gentle with ourselves :') and just being kind to ourselves, and self-care in general. Self-care can be hard. 💙
Oftentimes it’s easier to be kind to another person 💜 to speak a few kind words, to compliment them, to be gentle with them when things are not so okie in their world. When things are hard. But when it comes to ourselves and our own worlds - it can be hard to be gentle with ourselves. :') and i understand that.
But it’s okay to take things slowly. one day at a time. 💙 it’s okay to try. Trying is good 💜 and we can try together. 💙 you don’t ever have to go through anything alone.
Now, I do have a few questions for you all. Hehe. 💜 feel free to answer them - if your comfy. 💙 if not, that’s completely okie too! 💜
- what would ‘being gentle with yourself’ look like for you?
- what’s something kind you can do for yourself/say to yourself today? (Or tonight)
Sending loads of love and hugs (if okay) 💙

@LoveMyMoonflowers Heyyy

hello! 💙
@LoveMyMoonflowers
I needed to hear this right now 🥹 Thank you moony 😭 Thank you so much 🥺 You dont know how much I needed someone to talk to me in that voice, like I do deserve gentleness and kindness and love as well 😭😭😭😭 Thank you dearie 😪 Sometimes even the best of us can go through the worst of times, and everyone's pain and suffering is valid and real, no one deserves to feel like they don't matter, like they don't have a place, even just a tiny corner, in someone's heart. Everyone needs healing, and its so hard to heal sometimes 😭 Its so hard to believe we are worthy of love and a gentle hug, after what some of us have gone through.
Sending lots of love and gentle hugs back at you Moony buddy 🥰 (If okie of course)
Your new buddy,

i think you said this so beautifully and i agree wholeheartedly with it. 🥺 it really is so difficult to accept the fact that we’re loved, and we’re *worthy* of that love. especially after everything we’ve been through in the past. it’s hard. :') i hear you and i can relate. 💜 our brains seem inclined to believe the hurtful words, and they seem inclined to think we deserve the bad things that have happened to us. it’s hard to believe the kind words, it’s hard to accept things like compliments, it’s hard to believe we deserve every beautiful thing that comes our way. 💙 it takes time to believe and learn - and that’s okay. we have time. we can take things slowly. together. 💜
thank you so much for your sweet words, the lots of love and gentle hugs. 🥺 i appreciate you so much and i’m hoping to see you around more often 💕 my new friend. 💙
Praying for those who are experiencing some depression lately and hoping for better days no matter what yall are going through 🙏
@CallumKing2000
we appreciate your prayers, callum. keeping you in my thoughts and prayers as well 💕 thank you 💜
@LoveMyMoonflowers I did it to let others know that it gets better and to let them know there's light out there eventually, even I'm trying to find it, I've been on the verge of just giving up and just getting lost in myself but better days are hopefully coming for us all I guess
@CallumKing2000 gives Callum a giant tiny hug ❤❤ squeezes you tightly ❤
@CallumKing2000
i understand that :') sending big hugs your way if okay. 💜 i hope you know we’re here for you
Thinking of you and sending peace and strength.@CallumKing2000

@LoveMyMoonflowers
Hey Ni! Thank you for this beautiful post❤!
- what would ‘being gentle with yourself’ look like for you?
I guess not forcing myself to study or to behave in a particular way and telling myself it's okay to be the way you are. And yup treating myself to sweets 🍫.
- what’s something kind you can do for yourself/say to yourself today?
Maybe watch a movie and eat chocolates 😋
@Blahblah1805
hi friend! awwe thank you so much 🥺 i’m glad you liked the post ^-^ (and i am so sorry for the late reply friend 🤧)
thank you for your sweet (🍫 hehe) response 💜 your definitely not alone in the forcing yourself to study thing 🤧 i can relate with that :') but i’m proud of you for wanting to change that 💙
it really is okay to be the way you are 💜 that’s such a beautiful reminder 💙 and sweets are awesome 🥰 *sends you some more sweets* 🥺🍫
ouh, did you get to watch that movie? :o
@LoveMyMoonflowers
Hehe.. I prepared everything but before starting the movie I 😴💤..
Yayy yummy *nom nom😋*
@Blahblah1805
awwe :') that’s okie 💙 sleep is good ^-^ i hope you’ll get to watch that movie soon though 💜
@LoveMyMoonflowers
I'll definitely inform you when the day comes 🥺.. Though I don't see it in near future😅
@Blahblah1805
Hehe, okay. 💜
@LoveMyMoonflowers Hey Ni!! I finally watched my movie😁. Though it was not worth waiting this much XD, atleast I took a good break.
@Blahblah1805
hey friend 💙 xD yeah sometimes we wait to do something and when we finally do it, it feels like it wasn’t worth waiting that long lol. T^T i get that. 💙 hehe. i’m glad you took a good break though 💙 it’s good to take breaks ^-^
@LoveMyMoonflowers

Being patient with myself and accept that I cannot do everything perfect. Also accepting that there will be more bad days, but that they won't last forever.
- what’s something kind you can do for yourself/say to yourself today? (Or tonight)
Well, right now I am eating a chocolate donut. That's about the best thing I have done for myself all day!
@TheMadHatterWasHere
hey friend 💜 i am so sorry for the late reply 🤧💙
i loved reading your response 💜 this was beautiful. 💙 i think it’s honestly so hard to be patient with ourselves 💜 oftentimes we feel the need to do everything perfectly :') and it can be hard to remind ourselves that we are hoomans and we can’t do everything perfect 💜 we make mistakes and that’s okay. 💙 i’m glad you’ve listed this here as a way you can be gentler with yourself 🫶🏼
bad days certainly don’t last forever 💜 that’s certainly another lovely reminder to have ^-^ thank you for sharing friend 🫶🏼
awwe, a choccie donut sounds delicious 🍩 hehe 💙 i’m glad you got to nom that donut (: sending hugs your way if okay 🫂 and more yummy donuts 🍩💕
