TUESDAY TEACH

What is something that you learned as an adult that you wish you had understood when you were a child?

For me it’s that it’s a ok to say no. If you don’t feel like doing something then it’s ok to just politely say no. You don’t have to go along with the crowd. You can forge your own path and people will still like you even if you don’t share all the same interests and do all the same things as them.

What’s yours?

One of the biggest regrets of my childhood is that I didn't express my emotions and instead bottled them up. I thought showing emotions was a sign of weakness, but now I realize that expressing and managing emotions is crucial for mental well-being.

If only I had understood the importance of emotional expression and management earlier, I would have:

1: Avoided unnecessary stress and anxiety
2: Built stronger relationships through open communication
3: Developed emotional resilience and intelligence
4: Learned to prioritize self-care and mental health

Looking back, I wish I had known that:

1: Vulnerability is strength, not weakness
2: Emotions are valid and deserving of attention
3:Expressing feelings leads to healing and growth
4:Managing emotions is key to a happier life

I hope others can learn from my experience and prioritize emotional expression and management from a young age.

I am a hard working women and I love degen

You are really very sweet friend ❤️❤️❤️❤️
