Reminder to Be Free

[Starrlight]

✨ You are enough. ✨

You don’t have to prove this to anyone.

Let yourself Be Free now.

[AnxiousSilver]

I needed to read this today.

Thank you Starrlight.

[Starrlight in reply to AnxiousSilver]

You’re welcome. You are an amazing soul.

[AnxiousSilver in reply to Starrlight]

"You are an amazing soul. "

.

No Starlight.

You are.

[Starrlight in reply to AnxiousSilver]

Awww shucks 😆 thanks friend.

[AnxiousSilver in reply to Starrlight]

[Nothing_but_books in reply to AnxiousSilver]

Yes AnxiousSilver. You both are. Tell yourself till you believe it. (It's hard for me too.)

[AnxiousSilver in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Thank you NBP.

[Hidden in reply to Nothing_but_books]

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Hidden]

That drives me crazy! You just get all the laundry washed, hung outside, and the dark grey clouds start to loom. No sooner does everything get dry than they're wetter than ever, and so am I. Yuck.

[Hidden in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Always LOL apart from summer then your birds fly over loads and poop 💩allover the washing 😂

💗 Nice picture... took me a second to realize it's clouds. ☁️ Thanks hon for this reminder... really needed to see/hear it, especially after therapy. Going to attempt to take in some nature therapy once I get home... hopefully the rain has stopped by then .

[Starrlight in reply to melbrown]

Thanks and you’re welcome ☺️ Enjoy nature therapy. What if it is still raining? Will you do something similar instead or go out in the rain?

[melbrown in reply to Starrlight]

🦆 Probably stand on the back porch for a bit.. just to at least get some fresh clean air & take in some of the peaceful beauty of the yard, that you get after rain. Maybe do a mindfulness exercise.

[Starrlight in reply to melbrown]

Nice Mel! Enjoy ☺️

[Hidden in reply to Starrlight]

the rain air is good its got prana in its pure and you need to breath after a storm 🤗

[Nothing_but_books]

I am too much. I am too little. I waffle; I vacillate. I don't know if I've ever felt "enough", just right.

Now I'm Goldilocks. Nope, not this chair. Not that one either. Nope, not this porridge. Tryin' this bed. Tryin' that bed...

I always thought the bears should have eaten her after she trashed their house. Just sayin'. 🤔

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

You are uniquely you and that’s perfect.

Yeah they probably should have eaten her. Just like Hansel and Gretel got eaten. What weird stories.

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight]

One Love. 💜

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

One Love ❤️

[primrose81 in reply to Starrlight]

Did Hansel and Gretel get eaten then? I thought the woodcutter came and saved them or was that Little Red Riding Hood? Actually remember a version in which Hansel pushed wicked witch into furnace/ oven and closed the door of it while he and Gretel escaped…boy am I getting confused now, somebody help please…

[Starrlight in reply to primrose81]

Oh I was wrong you’re right! I just had in my mind a picture of the kids being in oven but yeah that must have been the lady or witch being put in oven.

[Adlon57 in reply to primrose81]

Is that the one where Jeremy Renner plays Hansel, who goes Diabetic 1, shoving injections into his leg.....

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Adlon57]

I'm not modern enough to get the reference. Looked it up. Oh.

[primrose81 in reply to Adlon57]

Gosh I have no idea Adlon57 - I was just going on what I had read in fairytale books when the children were little ( and I always checked they had happy endings..and the witch did deserve it, didn’t she?!)…

[Adlon57 in reply to primrose81]

It was a film of "Hansel and Gretal; Witch Hunters" (2013) that was the one I meant Jeremy Renner as Hansel, a gothic romp!

[Nothing_but_books in reply to primrose81]

It depends on which version you've read. The original tales were graphically violent. Not for children at all, at least not by modern standards. Lots of translators prettied them up.

[Adlon57 in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Yes that more recent one had witches killed by 17th century machine guns at the red moon, plenty of blood, and lots of CGI's all over the place, very gothic👀🧙‍♀️🧙🧙‍♂️

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

Interesting

[Isinatra in reply to Nothing_but_books]

lol

[Hidden]

Nice post!!!!💖

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

❤️ Hi! How are you doing?

[Hidden in reply to Starrlight]

I’m holding on, thanks for asking. I was trying to stay away from this site for awhile, but I think I’m addicted to it. How have you been?

[Hidden in reply to Hidden]

oh anothee one then haha i was off more yesterday needed break and phone charge bed early im having less time here balance in life is the key replace on addiction with a healthier one, more outdoor time activities is healthy 🤗

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

I have been doing that, so much easier to get out when the suns bright.

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

I’m glad you’re here. Remember that you are strong as you hang in there. I’ve been ok thanks. Staying busy. Im on Spring break and have been spring cleaning. Also managing to overthink lots of stuff though. Off to meditate in a minute.

[Hidden in reply to Starrlight]

Thank you. I’m so sorry your Mom passed away. My Mom is 80 and I am way too dependent on her. When she goes I know it’s going to be rough for me. Probably in the next year or so I may have to go to a womens group home or something like that and I am very nervous about it, my parents are too. I’ve lived in a lot of different situations. Sorry, I don’t mean to sound like I’m all about me. It’s just not easy to have the mental health issues that I do, and I’m sure it isn’t for you either.

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

Thank you. I know the feeling (((((hug)))))) of being worried a parent will pass…and my dad is 85. He just redid his will today so I’ve been thinking about it.

I hear you. I’ve been in lots of different living situations too because of my mental illness and it sucks. Yeah it’s really not easy for us. I tend to find that things work out better than I imagine though. So I hope that will be the case for you.

[Hb2003]

thank you for the reminder i have been doubting myself lately .

[Starrlight in reply to Hb2003]

Hey Hiba!!! I tend to do the same. The more we believe, the more it’s likely we are able to make things we want happen but at times it’s so hard.

[Hb2003 in reply to Starrlight]

true .

[Hidden]

Beautiful reminder 🙏

[Starrlight in reply to Hidden]

Thanks. ❤️

[SayNOtoPanic]

Hallelujah. Indeed!

Thank you Starr.

[Itzallgood1]

I ran out of the house naked screaming I'm free. Guess what? Not anymore, I'm in jail.....😁😉🤔🙂

[Isinatra in reply to Itzallgood1]

Lucky for us you don’t do that anymore. 🫣

[Dolphin14 in reply to Isinatra]

Imagine??? LOL

❤️🐬

[Isinatra in reply to Dolphin14]

I’d rather not. Lol

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Yikes!

Was it cold out?

🐬

[Isinatra in reply to Dolphin14]

😂

[Dolphin14 in reply to Isinatra]

haha..... he would be very silly to do such a thing. I wonder if the police give you a blanket?

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

More like a bib.

[Isinatra in reply to Dolphin14]

lol…no, I didn’t get a blanket. I wonder if he had company in jail?

[Dolphin14 in reply to Isinatra]

LOL

He was jogging?? Had sneakers on. I would be more ashamed of that

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Well.......

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Not sure where you live. Too cold for that business where I am.

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Wisconsin. Running kept me warm.

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Naked with sneakers?? Did you get picked up by the fashion police ??

[Isinatra in reply to Dolphin14]

😂😂

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Paparrazzi was there too. Headline news coming up. My first....

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

15 minutes of fame! You got that and a bib!

Here take the trophy 🏆 well done

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

🏆. Thank you. Always wanted one of these. Thot it'd be bigger but since it was cold....🥶

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Well I'm assuming the bib fit then

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

They got my size right. Newborn...

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Wait I thought it was premie??

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Trying to pump myself up here a bit so I said newborn instead of premie. You're right tho.😕

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

I'm sorry. The truth sometimes hurts us. Don't focus so much on the bib. I had one for my son was really cute. Said I'm the little guy.

Anyway, spirits up my friend focus on the 🏆.

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Thank you. And to think I was watching Free Willie at the time and missed half the movie😭

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Are you body shaming me? 🐬

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

I wasn't thinking clearly. Had this bib over my face.😕

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Itzallgood1]

They're letting me go to work and I haven't a thing to wear.🥶

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

No sh**. I didn't realize you were this funny.

Put that bib away. Stand tall and proud 🏆

Free Willie wasn't that great of a movie. My pod gave it half a star

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

I can do that. Standing tall now. They're telling me to sit down.😂

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

I can't go on I'm running out of material hahahah

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Me too

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

OK let's call it a draw!! It was a good run

Enjoy your day

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

Sounds good. Enjoy your day as well

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

TY

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

YW

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

Much appreciated

[primrose81 in reply to Dolphin14]

My husband calls it Wee Frillie…

[Dolphin14 in reply to primrose81]

[Itzallgood1 in reply to primrose81]

😱😱😱

[Isinatra in reply to Itzallgood1]

You guys are too funny!

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Isinatra]

You're one of us

[Dolphin14 in reply to Itzallgood1]

I think she started it tbh

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Dolphin14]

True

[Isinatra in reply to Itzallgood1]

I can’t keep up! We’ll have to do this again soon……😁

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Isinatra]

Yes!! It was fun. Good day to laugh

[Isinatra in reply to Itzallgood1]

You started it……

[Itzallgood1 in reply to Isinatra]

🤣🤣🤣

[Starrlight in reply to Itzallgood1]

😆

[Itzallgood1]

Not after this outburst I don't😂

Love the photo and saving this post. I really needed it today. Thank you Star. 😊❤️🌹

[Starrlight in reply to Mrspjsmom]

No problem! 😌 ❤️ ⭐️

[Adlon57]

There's nothing like a bit of black humour, to laugh yourself out of a dark corner, recently found I did not have Prostate Cancer, after going through biopsy last June, then hormone injections and radiotherapy, they did not have the guts to tell me they were wrong, BUT the reaction to the Decapeptyl SR hormone injection has proved as serious as any cancer scare, I was diagnosed terminally ill with my epilepsy, having had 400 seizures "next one will probably be my last!" hanging over me, my rib cage structure has in effect 'collapsed' 🥴BUT a nice little dig in the ribs, finances April 2022 £130 a week April £205 a week😜😛

[Adlon57 in reply to Adlon57]

April 2023 £205 a week!👍

[designguy]

Looks like a popcorn ceiling!

[Vasiliki99]

Looks like carpet what is it ? Free to be who we are if only the whole world was free to be who they needed to be

[Starrlight in reply to Vasiliki99]

Hi Vasiliki

I get that. Some try to take away our freedom more and more these days and some are succeeding.

The photo is of clouds.

[Trainchaser]

Encouraging words hard to do

[Starrlight in reply to Trainchaser]

So true. For me it is difficult too. We can work towards it. I only feel enough when I’m really aware /conscious in the present moment.

[Trainchaser in reply to Starrlight]

Try my best but sometimes my own thoughts get in the way. I worry so much over things I really have no control over. Lots of my worry comes out in my dreams. Ugh

[Starrlight in reply to Trainchaser]

Me too! So many snxiety dreams! I too worry about things I can’t control and it drives me nuts because it’s like ok logically it doesn’t make sense but so many people find themselves worrying. I guess all we can do is try our best.

[Trainchaser in reply to Starrlight]

Sometimes I don't even want to go to sleep for fear of dreaming. I am lucky in that I wake up all anxious but don't remember my dreams past waking up. I usually have to take a prn to calm myself down. My dreams mix the old current and future. Sometimes I can't get back to sleep so I start my day early

[Starrlight in reply to Trainchaser]

That’s rough. I don’t usually recall my dreams lately either but when I wake up from them I start in on rushing. I am going to try to change this.

[Trainchaser in reply to Starrlight]

I hope the dreams go away as well but they been with me so long. And I wished I worry less.

[Starrlight in reply to Trainchaser]

Would be nice if you could recall the dreams, so you can learn from and problem solve using them. In the meantime, do you want to try meditating when you wake up? Or exercising?

[Trainchaser in reply to Starrlight]

Usually listen to smooth jazz music or the sounds of the ocean. Another night of dreams but not bad enough to keep me up

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight]

HU is messing with me. It flashed at me when I typed, then deleted my PM. I'll try later. Sorry.
