A place to post memes & images that won't absolutely obliterate your mental health! Memes must not stray into hopelessness and be generally positive or neutral.
I made this with my kid in mind, so that they can have a good, safe place to look at memes, just made to make folks laugh and smile!
Only goofs & silliness. (:

Yeah I allowed my own kindness to lead me into a manipulator's grasp. But then I think about what a friend told me after, how she'd rather be taken advantage of sometimes than callous to the needs of others. What I really needed was to maintain boundaries, and to acknowledge when someone is beyond my help, not to not be kind
First person you have to be kind to is yourself
Being kind and being a doormat are not the same thing.
