Would you rather be thirsty AF or hydrated and nourished AF?! In real life, we are all in need. Yes, some people like to say “I don’t need anybody” but that’s a fucking lie. Along with people, we need food, shelter, clothes, water, and support.
Our shelter should be our safe haven; our support should be able to lift us when we’re down, celebrate us when we’re up, be solution driven when we’re having problems and call us out on our shit amongst other things. You should be mindful of what you’re putting in your body but me saying only eat things that are good for you would be hypocritical because I love a good ribeye, chicken wing, and jasmine rice. I promise it’s in moderation and i mix good with bad but I’m working on a better lifestyle; so be patient with me.
In real life, we know what is and isn’t good for us. We know that we get in our own way. We know we’re usually our biggest critics. However, we may not realize how what people are pouring into us has a tremendous effect on us. Aside from what they’re pouring into us and what we are allowing ourselves to receive are you watering yourself? Do you have an umbrella to protect yourself from others internal issues? Do you drink from the fountain that gives you good skin and healthy hair or are you constantly drinking the pop with the high fructose corn syrup, 56 Grams of sugar and host of other things that don’t belong in us?
Watering yourself can provide you with plenty of benefits. Watering yourself is nourishing certain elements of your life to ensure that part of you is growing. Watering yourself is being that open, honest and loving person who gets love and support from those around you. Watering yourself prevents you from being dehydrated and taking desperate measures. Water yourself with support, love, books, music, and things that don’t put your mind in a rut because a weak mind can put you in bad positions. Now ask yourself what should I be watering to ensure I’m doing my best and getting results in all aspects of my life…

Fam, your message and that t-shirt your rocking just go hand in hand.
Watering yourself or self care is something we all need to take heed to and DO IT. We are so worried about others and our responsibilities we starve ourselves, mentally, physically and emotionally and wonder why we are so exerted day in and day out. I like what flight deck crew says ( I’m paraphrasing) before take off, ” place your mask on first, then turn to help others around you. What a nugget!
Thanks for this post Weez!
Thanks for reading it!!! This shirt is from http://www.heartfromaking.com and it only made sense to weart this shirt while being as natural as possible when capturing an image for watering our seeds that we plant. Xoxoxo
