Pleasure is always derived from something outside you, whereas joy arises from within.
Fake people have an image to maintain; real people just don’t care.

i wish there wasn’t such a stigma around being proved wrong, bc it’s a part of life, no one can be right all the time. if we didn’t feel as much shame about it i think a lot of things would change a lot faster
we all need to practice saying “I hadn’t thought of it like that” “I hadn’t seen it that way before” “I must have misunderstood the first time I heard about it” “if I had known those facts I wouldn’t have thought like I did”
note to self: if you were able to believe in Santa Claus for 8 years, you can believe in yourself for like 5 seconds ok u got this
