I often seek out words and quotes to smooth heavy emotions.
One specific practice I’ve created for myself involves a private instagram saved folder dedicated to words on dating and love reassurance. After a bad first date or dating disappointment, I open up that folder, close my eyes and scroll. I allow my finger to stop on a random saved post in the folder and open my eyes. The quote that appears often feels like a message delivered precisely when needed—as if the universe is reminding me that everything will be okay.
So if you’ve stumbled across this post and you’re in need of a few smoothing or reassuming words today (dating related or maybe just human related), I think that the universe guided you here :)
Keep scrolling for a few comforting words that are helping me in this stage of life xx
“Stop waiting to feel ready. Ready is not a feeling, it’s a decision.”
“The universe works fast when you’re having fun. Align with joy and watch miracles unfold”
“Never sleep on the idea that visits you daily. That will be the one to change your life”
“You’re not doing it wrong. You’re just in the part that makes most people quit. Stay in the room”
“Just make it exist first. You can make it good later.”
“The way they do it doesn’t have to be the way you do it.”
“Forgive the paths you didn’t take. You are right where you need to be.”
"Your life isn’t yours if you always care what others think”
“The struggle you feel is actually called progress”
“You need to feel at peace more than you need to feel in control”
“The best years of your life are when you let your wild, passionate, crazy side get an equal say in decision making”
“Be more involved with life, and less attached to it”
“The right doors won’t open for you until you are the version of yourself that’s supposed to walk through them”
“The little progress you have made today still matters”
