Why Choosing Compassion Isn’t Weakness

“Is Love Making Me Stupid?” — Why Choosing Compassion Isn’t Weakness Let me start with a confession: I usually do things from my heart. I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, choose to see the good in every situation, and forgive more quickly than I probably should. And for some reason, that’s been mistaken as… stupidity. Yes, I’ve heard it all. “You’re too soft.” “People will walk all over you.” “You need to toughen up.” But let’s get this straight: choosing love over bitterness isn’t stupidity. It’s compassion. And if that makes me seem naïve, I’d rather be a “fool” for love than a genius in judgment. Love Isn’t Weak—It’s Strategic Now here’s where things get juicy. According to psychologists (and a little research rabbit hole I fell into), love is actually smart . Phewww, I had to do some real research and use these big, genius-sounding words to back myself up—so here it is. Love stimulates oxytocin, the “feel-good hormone,” lowers stress levels, and even impro...

How to Pretend You Have Your Life Together

  How to Pretend You Have Your Life Together (Without Anyone Finding Out) 😎✨ Let’s face it: adulting is hard. Like, really hard. Some days, I can barely remember to put on matching socks, let alone conquer the chaos of life like a Zen master. Yet, somehow, society expects us to walk around like we have it all figured out. Spoiler alert: Nobody actually does . But if you want to master the art of looking like you have your life together — without anyone discovering the glorious mess underneath — buckle up. This guide’s for you. 😉 Step 1: Master the “I’m Fine” Smile and Nodding 🤐🙃 The secret sauce of pretending is the subtle art of the smile-and-nod. When someone asks, “How are you?” you don’t need to unload your emotional baggage or reveal that you binged three seasons of a show last night because you couldn’t deal with your to-do list. Just flash your best “I’m thriving” smile, nod confidently, and say something vague like: “Oh, you know, living the dream!”...

Man, Know Your Worth!

  Man, Know Your Worth! (And Why You Shouldn’t Settle for Scraps) Let’s get straight to it: if you’ve ever seen a man silently grab his keys, put on his shoes, and walk away from a cheating partner without yelling, throwing her clothes out the window, or going full soap opera drama… just know one thing: that man knows his worth. He didn’t leave because he thought he wasn’t enough. He left because he knows he’s more than enough. You see, somewhere between fixing leaking taps, taking the trash out in his Superman boxers, and pretending he’s not scared of that spider in the bathroom, a real man learns an important lesson: his love, time, energy, and loyalty are priceless . And he’s not about to waste those on someone who treats relationships like a free trial subscription. But wait—let’s not make this a gender battle arena. Of course, women aren’t the only ones who cheat. No, no, no. We’ve all met that one guy who could flirt with a lamppost if it gave him attention. In fact, som...

CAN YOU BE COOL AND STILL FOLLOW CHRIST? FAITH IN A MODERN WORLD

CAN YOU BE COOL AND STILL FOLLOW CHRIST? FAITH IN A MODERN WORLD In today’s culture, the concept of being “cool” often revolves around trends, fame, followers, and personal freedom. But if you're a follower of Christ, it’s natural to wonder: Can I really be cool and still follow Jesus? The world may suggest that true faith is outdated, restrictive, or even uncool—but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Being a faithful Christian in a modern world doesn’t mean you have to be boring, judgmental, or irrelevant. In fact, the most authentically “cool” people are often those who walk in righteousness, stand firm in their beliefs, and radiate God’s love with grace. Let’s explore what it really means to walk with Christ in a world that often rewards compromise, and how doing so can be the most powerful (and yes, cool) choice you ever make. Redefining “Cool” in a Christ-Centered Way The modern idea of being cool is typically tied to approval—being liked, admired, or ...
