Today I learnt:
Cruelty enjoyed tricking me as a little boy. I'm still mad about that
Today I am grateful:
For deep fried Karaage chicken, miso soup and peach tea
Today I need:
To ask others for comfort and help even if I feel horrible and lonely as I do it
Today I forgive:
People who knowingly use me because they see no other way

Today I learnt:
I'm triggered randomly, because nourishment, safety and privacy were neglected in childhood out of sheer ignorance
Today I am grateful:
For warm clothes and coffee
Today I need:
To let others manage their own confusion however uncomfortable
Today I forgive:
Anyone who struggles to listen to themselves being spoken about by others

Today I learnt:
There is no need to rush, but when you need to, you go ahead and rush the shit out of it
Today I am grateful:
That as disconnected as I feel, and as slight as my existence seems, I will still come from people
Today I need:
Affection, even if I can't tolerate it and my need feels too big
Today I forgive:
My dad; protecting you made me feel the most unsafe

Today I learnt:
Improvement demands letting messes flourish in real life
Today I am grateful:
I don't have to take care of your shit just to be around you with mine

Today I learnt:
To set a boundary using one coherent sentence, my feelings and my voice
Today I am grateful:
For awkward silences and unavoidable mistakes
Today I need:
My boss to say, "you are doing fine but you deserve more." It could happen.
Today I forgive:
People, with no investment, for putting expectations on me, that have nothing to do with me

Today I learnt:
'Mean' is just a technique, when you're afraid your anger doesn't belong to you
Today I am grateful:
The ideal life I use, to make sense of my suffering, is an excellent fake
Today I need:
A second to watch my inner reaction, in case I accidentally pretend I didn't have it
Today I forgive:
Any shit that happens whether I can change it or not (with my 'changing powers')
