"a garden to walk in and immensity to dream in--what more could she ask? a few flowers at her feet and above her the stars."

i love being asexual, i really do. it makes up a huge part of my indentity and it took me so long to accept myself and be happy with my sexuality and my aversion to sex and i’m proud that i made it through a dark time trying to figure out what i was feeling, and i was so delighted in the fact i’m not broken, i’m not strange - there’s nothing wrong with me. discovering my asexuality and who i wanted to be was such a huge part of my life. however, sometimes, i really wish i wasn’t ace because i would love to want to fuck taika waititi

If I wanted him, I’d have him. And I’d have their wives, but I don’t.

Just the two of us. We don't need Heaven, we don't need Hell, they're toxic. We need to get away from them, just be an us. You and me, what do you say?

My therapist: just because you made a plan doesn’t mean you’ll always follow it perfectly, and that’s okay. It’s better to follow a plan cursorily than not at all.

Me, sobbing: THAT WAS AN OPTION???

Oh, this is super important.

When trying new coping strategies or learning a new habit, you’ll fail. Possibly many many times.

But that’s alright! No one just PICKS it up immediately. 

You’re trying to learn to do it sometimes, and then occasionally, and then more often than not, and finally every time!

Similarly, you might fail in any plan or timetable you’re trying to use.

But that’s alright! 

As OP’s therapist said, it doesn’t have to be perfect! In fact, no one can pick it up immediately. 

Doing things OCCASIONALLY is better than not doing it at all.

Doing things LATE is better than not doing it at all.

Doing things PARTIALLY is better than not doing it at all.

Also don’t aim for perfection. Just aim for as best you can, ideally a little better than last time. But? There will be ups and downs. That isn’t a flaw in you or your techniques, it’s just how people work.

Indeed. 

Let me also post OP’s tags cause it had another good point.
