i wish i could be this pretty and handsome at the same time.

honestly i’d probably be okay with a more masculine appearance if i was this like angelic in the face/hair department.

Psych-Quotes: How To Maintain Your Independence In A Relationship

Psych-Quotes: How To Maintain Your Independence In A Relationship:

psych-quotes:

We all know those people who lose themselves in a relationship. Don’t be one of them! Here are the Dos and Don’ts for staying yourself in a relationship:

Do

·         Hang out with your friends. Don’t stop spending time with your friends the way you always have just because you have a boyfriend or girlfriend. Spending all your time with your partner and ditching your friends is a surefire way to lose who you really are.

·         Keep your own plans. Spend every Sunday with your cousins? Is Friday night movie night with your friends? Don’t change that! Keep your existing plans going even if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend and find other time to hang out with them rather than bumping your normal plans to the back burner.

·         Take turns choosing activities. Don’t let him or her always pick the restaurant or movie. Take turns to make sure you both get to do what you want. You’ll learn to compromise and it will ensure that you don’t become a doormat.

The poster reads:

1 in 6 males are sexual abused before age 18 - far more than are at risk for diabetes (1 in 10) or heart disease (1 in 8).

At 8 I became a statistic - at 30 I became a survivor. (Most male survivors take at least 20 years to begin healing - if they ever do)

For 22 years I lived in silence. Now I want the world to know - what happened to me can happen to anyone. Both the abuse and the healing.

www.malesurvivor.org // @malesurvivorORG on Twitter

“For every 100 friends you have on Facebook, 15-20 (at least) are survivors of sexual abuse.”

Men rape victims do exist, and in fact studies show that male rape victims make up almost half. Just because it isn’t reported, doesn’t mean it does not exist. Support everyone, ignore no one.

Wanted to get modern women artists and some WOC up in this one. If you reblog it would be cool if you kept the part in the brackets so these artists, two of whom are still working, will get credit—this conversational part below is nbd.

Hell yes. I like this version better!

Ways to stay motivated

psych-quotes:

mindmotivation:

After we’ve found our motivation, how do we stay on top of it? Maybe you’re trying to get fit, lose weight, or start your own business. Maybe you’re trying to do several things at once.

Getting motivated and inspired is the first step of a goal. We start going to the gym for the first week, set a schedule, make plans and things go smoothly at first. Soon after the enthusiasm begins fading and it becomes easy to end up at abandoning your goal.

These are some ways I found useful to stay on top of your goals, whatever they might be:

# 1: Start on easy goals – all goals take time and effort, and trying to accomplish more than three or four at a time is more than most people can. Try and pick your most important goals, and remember everything takes time. A good strategy is choosing goals that can relate to another (eg. If you’re trying to get fit, it may be a good idea to have a secondary goal of trying to eat healthier, whereas if you’re number one goal is to write a book, it may not be a good idea to work on starting a business at the same time).

It is so easy to lose steam when things don’t go according to plan the instant you decide that they should. On a daily basis, I remind myself to do my best (whatever that may be in that particular moment) and get through the day without harshing my mellow. Each morning is a fresh start, and as long as I don’t give in to negativity, good things will happen on even the worst of days!

DIY Moss Cemetery Terrarium!

DIY Moss Cemetery Terrarium!:

gothiccharmschool:

Here’s a DIY on some Gothic Gardening for those of us who don’t have access to proper garden space but still crave some spooky haunted greenery. Great for shaded windowsills or tables, one of these…

Oooh, I’ve been meaning to try this. And heaven knows we have enough moss for me to harvest in our backyard!

(Yes, we have a yard and I could do “proper” gardening, but I have a black thumb. Not to mention I discovered soon after we bought the house that I don’t like the “manual labor outside in the sun” aspect of gardening. Which is a shame, because I love the idea of a garden.

"The secret isn’t to find someone you love spending time with - I love spending time with a lot of..."

Thu, 23 May 2013 13:49:06 -0500

“The secret isn’t to find someone you love spending time with - I love spending time with a lot of people. The secret isn’t to find someone that you find attractive - I find a lot of people attractive for many different reasons. The secret isn’t to find someone who is nice - there are tons of nice people in the world. The secret is to find someone who wants exactly what you want. Someone who is ready to give you all they’ve got, and in turn be ready to accept all the love you have to give. The world is filled with people in relationship of “loves you more” & “I have to act mean so they will like me back” or “I am just not ready.” Please do not waste any more of your precious time. You are an amazing creature. You deserve to be loved until your insides melt. Don’t give up on all the things you want. When you meet the right person you will have zero doubt in your mind. Zero.”

- This, this, this, this. THIS. (via xokrista)
