I am going to say yes to adventure. I am going to face fears with a war cry. I am not going to give my what-ifs more credit than they deserve.

Let them know it is okay to cry in front of you, it is okay to rant in front of you, it is okay to fall apart in front of you.

I will never trust you, because I will never understand why you would settle for someone like me.

If you wait too long to make a move, then she is going to assume you are not interested. She is going to jump to conclusions, thinking the worst, thinking you only view her as a friend.

Being sad does not mean you are with the wrong person. It does not mean you are broken. It means you are a human with complex emotions.

Sagittarius: Festive

Even when you are planning on giving them the silent treatment, you will have the temptation to text them. Even when you are supposed to be annoyed with them, they will find ways to make you laugh aloud. 

“There is a huge difference between a dog that is going to eat you in your mind and an actual dog that’s going to eat you.”

Stay single until you find someone who puts effort into pursuing you and puts effort into keeping you.

I am not going to take steps backward. I am not going to retreat to the past. I am not going to let my guilt pull me in the wrong direction.

“The right man for you might be out there right now and if you don’t grab him, someone else will, and you’ll have to spend the rest of your life knowing that someone else is married to your husband.”

TAURUS: In 2018, you doubted yourself. Instead of taking advantage of all of the opportunities presented to you, you stayed inside fo your comfort zone where it was safe. 

In 2019, do not make finding love a priority. Make self-love a priority. 

My anxiety makes me doubt whether anyone cares about me as much as I care about them.

When you ask me to forgive someone toxic, someone abusive, someone who has crossed unacceptable lines, it feels like you are making excuses for them. It feels like you are trying to punish me for sticking up for myself. It feels like you are telling me all of the hurtful things they did to me were okay. 

I spend most of my free time sleeping. Snacking. Overthinking.

ARIES: You do not have to spend time with toxic family members over the holidays. You are allowed to keep your distance from the people who will cause you stress.
