Personal Reflection:
I’ve stood outside too many doors in my life, waiting for them to swing open on their own. Maybe out of fear. Maybe out of some twisted politeness that wasn’t doing me any favors. The truth is, life doesn’t hand you keys—it hands you bruised knuckles and a choice. You either knock, or you don’t.

But the trick is knowing whether to knock or not. Sometimes patience is its own key. Stillness can shatter a door better than force, if you can stomach the waiting. That’s the gamble—deciding when to strike and when to trust the silence.

One’s movements should be purposeful; they should lead to something. I’ve heard too many times, “at least I did something.” At this point, I just smile at the impatience. Not because it’s ridiculous, but because I remember when it guided me as well.

And still—the silence waits, heavier each time, as if daring me to choose.

Reflective Prompt:
Where in your life are you standing at a door, unsure if it needs your fist or your patience? What would it take for you to finally decide?

Personal Reflection

There are days when the world asks too much, and the soft places inside you retreat. What rises in their place is not anger — not exactly. It’s something ancient. Elemental. A flame that knows how to defend itself.

Being “more fire than girl” isn’t about rage for its own sake. It’s about presence. Boundaries. Power. It’s the heat that returns to your spine when you’ve been cold too long. The energy that says: I’m still here. I burn because I exist.

You don’t owe anyone your constant gentleness. Some days you blaze. Some days you smolder. But either way, you’re sacred.

Reflective Prompt

What does your fire look like?
When do you feel most powerful — and how can you honor that without apology?

Personal Reflection

I’ve spent too many nights thinking that surviving wasn’t enough. That just getting through the day, the week, the year — somehow meant I wasn’t really living. I probably read in one of those books or on a calendar. But what if we stopped measuring worth by how bright we shine and started honoring how long we held on?

Some days, the only victory is not letting go.
Not giving in.
Not disappearing.

And that, I’m learning, is a kind of bravery. The kind that doesn’t ask for applause but earns your respect in silence. Especially when no one’s looking.

Reflective Prompt

When was the last time you gave yourself credit just for surviving — not thriving, not winning—just making it through?
