The way people treat you is the way they feel about you.

Malcolm says it well here.

Crystallized intelligence (which involves accumulated facts, vocabulary, and general knowledge) improves and deepens the older you get.

Fluid intelligence (the ability to process brand new information rapidly), tends to peak earlier in life.

The science breaks down into a few key areas:
The Growth of Semantic Memory:
The brain's ability to recall concepts and general facts continues to expand through experience.

The Power of "SuperAgers": Recent research indicates that mental sharpness doesn't have to decline, with some individuals over 80 retaining the brain functions and memories of those decades younger.

Long-Term Neuroplasticity: While the speed of information retrieval might take longer, the brain's capacity to build new connections remains strong.

Enjoy your life! Seek new experiences!

There is absolutely nothing that God can’t do. What seems impossible to you, is possible with Him.

The more you know, the more precise is your path.
Choose the easier way, you’re dying.

Some abusive dynamics are abusive.
Some neglect is neglect.
Some manipulation is manipulation.
Calling reality by its name is not automatically bitterness.
Sometimes it is the beginning of coherence.

We need to stop romanticizing and sugaring up abuse and harmful behavior.
Calling out what happened is not bitterness.
Naming reality is not hatred.
Speaking honestly about harm is not “living in the past.”
Too many formerly abused people are living under the pretense of wellness because they are afraid of appearing angry, difficult, unforgiving, or bitter.
There is a difference between being consumed by a wound and refusing to falsify reality.
Truth is not bitterness.

This is part of what I love about getting older.
Being able to communicate clearly and honestly without needing to be acknowledged, applauded, or emotionally managed afterward.
And not just for myself, but so others know they are not alone.
Just truthfully.
Calmly.
Freely. 🌿
Because many people have never seen someone speak honestly about harm without either:
becoming cruel,
becoming self-righteous,
or disappearing into silence.
Calm clarity itself can become permission for others.

Happy Mother’s Day everyone.🌿🧡 EVERYONE.

Deeply honest communication can feel lonely. Because many people are not actually listening for truth itself.
They are listening for emotional equilibrium. This means they want to come into agreement where THEY are emotionally, and if they have not processed an ugly truth in their life they may be dealing with it through one of the mechanisms listed below.
Processing ugly truths is not an easy thing so often times these are ways people will opt to protect their minds, through:
minimization,
idealization,
dissociation,
spiritual bypassing,
forced positivity,
intellectualization,
or narrative rewriting.

That is not always conscious dishonesty. It is sometimes an unconscious reaction….
Sometimes it is psychic survival.
But as we learn to integrate more, and it becomes conscious ( meaning you become aware of it). This is even when healing and honest integration can start to happen. We often become increasingly able to say:
“Yes, this was painful, unjust, frightening, lonely, disappointing, or cruel…etc.,
and I can still remain present, coherent, relational, kind , compassionate and alive.”
That is very different from pretending ugliness never existed and storing it into your deepest of consciousness.
Remember, the body keeps the score.

To be courageous is a command! Be BOLD and of GOOD courage.
It makes it easier for me to look at it this way.🧡💪🏽

Procrastination is not laziness. It's a signal.
