Phrases that change lives and make the world a better place

I’ve reached this “weird” stage in my life where I simply want the people around me to be happy & feel good about themselves – same for me. I’ve spent the majority of my life wanting people to think that I’m special.⁣


Aging isn’t all that bad y’all. I feel I’ve fully embraced the phrases, “With age comes wisdom” & “Like a fine wine.” ⁣

My 20 year old self would never be able to give less f*cks about things like what others think of her or be ok with telling someone to f*ck off that needed to be told to f*ck off without batting an eye. Ya know what I mean? 🤷‍♀️ 💁🏼‍♀️You?!⁣

I’ve never understood how people fear getting older. Guess it’s a combo of being stuck in the past & FOMO?⁣

Perhaps the most reflective & effective exercise I’ve developed as I’ve aged is paying attention to the little words & phrases I’ve either heard or said that light people up.⁣

A simple smile, phrase, or kind word can change your day! ⁣

Y’all know I preach the power of thoughts & words, why not use them for good? So I wrote down a few of my favorites to share today.⁣

These phrases aren’t designed to help you get laid (…or maybe they will? 🤔 I dunno…you’re welcome?!😜) or manipulate someone from a negative place. ⁣
They are simply a collection of phrases I know I love to hear.⁣
They make people smile. ⁣
They make me smile.⁣

  • “You are amazing!”⁣
  • “I believe in you!”⁣
  • “I was thinking about you.”⁣
  • “I appreciate you.”⁣
  • “I value your opinion.”⁣
  • “That means a lot coming from you.”⁣
  • “Thank you.”⁣
  • “I miss you!.”⁣
  • “I admire __ about you.”⁣
  • “I love your energy!”⁣
  • “I saw this & it reminded me of you.”⁣
  • “Thank you for being such a wonderful human.”⁣
  • “This world is a better place simply because you’re in it.”⁣

    As a kicker: 4 words that have changed my life & may be something you need to hear today too…⁣

     “Be kind to yourself.” 🥰⁣
    …and heck, let’s add “Don’t be a d*ck.” in there too. 🙃😄⁣
