    A remarkable, amazing woman, fighting and caring f A remarkable, amazing woman, fighting and caring for equality and humanity - has passed. Her intensive friendship with justice Scalia (R) -a pretty conservative judge- in the Supreme Court, is an excellent example that friendships are very well possible even though you do not agree on everything. A great example for todays intolerant cancel culture. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "At The University of Columbia, she graduated at the top of her law school class. Despite her academic achievements, the doors to law firms were closed to women, and though recommended for a Supreme Court clerkship, she wasn't even interviewed."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "Knowing that she had to persuade male, establishment-oriented judges, she often picked male plaintiffs, and she liked Social Security cases because they illustrated how discrimination against women can harm men."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ "I do think that I was born under a very bright star. Because if you think about my life, I get out of law school. I have top grades. No law firm in the city of New York will hire me. I end up teaching; it gave me time to devote to the movement for the rights of women and men."⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Ruth Bader Ginsburg, such an example in many ways. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ May her soul rest in peace, her memory be a blessing 🤎🔯 . . . . ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #selfcareroutine⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nourishyoursoul⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #psychologytoday⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #unlockpotential⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #iamenough⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #selfcompassion⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #heartcenteredbusiness⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womenentrepreneurship ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womenempowermentquotes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #spiritualdevelopment⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #findyourhappiness⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nonviolentcommunication⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #SmallBusinessLove⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #SmallBusinessWomen⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #psychologytoday⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #unlockpotential⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #iamenough⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #selfcompassion⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #radicalselflove⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #selflovejourney⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #gratitudeattitude ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #motivationdaily⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #goforyourdreams⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #positivityquotes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #selfimage ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #emotionalhealing⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #behappywithyourself ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #creativeentrepreneurs⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #womenempowermentquotes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #positivepsychology
    Yes... Not feeling happy, is challenging you to lo Yes... Not feeling happy, is challenging you to look at yourself- what am I thinking? What am I feeling? What am I needing?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Yes, people are their happiest if their needs are met. Sure!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But life offers challenges and your needs might not be met - at all. Look at the current situation - the pandemic.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ If you feel down, be gentle with yourself, ground, investigate your thoughts, and cherish yourself as you would do with a little kid who is upset.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Try all this, and you'll feel better, guaranteed! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ .#findyourself #selfworth #selfcaretips #strongertogether #selflovery #selflove #selflovequotes #selfcareroutine #dailycalm #nourishyoursoul #selfcare #selfcarecoach #selfloveclub #selflovematters #youareenough #gratitudejournal #selfcompassion #selfimage #radicalselflove #selflovejourney #selfacceptance #mentalhealthawareness #selflover #confidencequotes #mentalhealth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #care #gratitudeattitude #gratitude #motivation
    Yeah... Do you remember? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ In the past, not so long ago, many were diligently practicing the psychological, spiritual awakening that took place: being less judgmental, and trying not to draw premature conclusions. It was widely practiced by many. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Lately, it seems that the practice has gone by the wayside! * See what is happening on Social Media. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ People shy away from expressing their thoughts, in order not to be lynched. Disagreement means fighting or worse, war ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ * See what happens in and with politics. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ As much as we know and don't know - judgments and statements are uttered in very intolerant ways. Opportunities for learning and listening to what others might say are overshadowed by an existential fear - it looks like. Some are ready to kill or break off existing relationships.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Bert Hellinger said: "Don't fight. Your opinion isn't any better. It's only different." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Give the benefit of the doubt.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Always wonder:⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. Did I hear this right?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. Did he/she MEAN it as it sounds?⠀ 3. Let me check if it is true before I post an opinion...⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. Is my ego speaking?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5. Is my fear for "what if..." playing a dominant part?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 6. Am I right to not trust, and if yes, why?⠀ 7. Is this really my intuition or a simple prejudice?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Honor yourself and others, it makes the world a better place.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Want to learn communication that connects?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ https://www.carlavanwalsum.com/connecting-communication-nvc/ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ *⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ***⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #MindfulParenting #consciousparenting #gentleparenting⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #stayathomemomlife #attachmentparenting #happyfamilytime⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #happymoms #holisticeducation #familyharmony #Happyrelationships #loveadvice #healthyrelationships #Relationshipsgoals #cheating⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #nonviolentcommunication #couplestuff #hiddenabuse⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #Epigenetics #loveyourselfquotes #gratitudejournal ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #meditations #Meditationpractice #healingquotes⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #healingenergy #childhoodtrauma #nonviolentcommunication #familyconstellations
    Ahhh...that is sooo easy to say, right? But honest Ahhh...that is sooo easy to say, right? But honestly, I think it's the best way to handle it. I know, there are many stories, interpretations, opinions out there, that are confusing. There is much we know. There is much we do NOT know.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ We can only take care of ourselves, and others, and do the best we can.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Every day is a day you are alive. Make it a happy day. Be thankful we are not in a warzone, or in a living hell. So many do though!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ It's lovely to reach out to people, who are alone, maybe lonely, and would be so excited to hear from you. It's what I try to do. Every day I'm calling someone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Learn something new! To my surprise, my Connecting Communication Classes are fully booked. It's time for growth and renewal as well. That's a positive approach! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Life is unpredictable, and will always be!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ That's it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Sending you love and kindness! . . . . #findyourself #selfworth #selfcaretips #strongertogether #selflovery #selflove #selflovequotes #selfcareroutine #dailycalm #nourishyoursoul #selfcare #selfcarecoach #selfloveclub #selflovematters #youareenough #gratitudejournal #selfcompassion #selfimage #radicalselflove #selflovejourney #selfacceptance #mentalhealthawareness #selflover #confidencequotes #mentalhealth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #care #gratitudeattitude #gratitude #motivation
