I recently finished "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie, and I swear I tried to keep an open mind while reading it.

"Our worth does not reside in how much we produce, especially not for a system that exploits and dehumanizes us. Rest, in its simplest form, becomes an act of resistance and a reclaiming of power because it asserts our most basic humanity. We are enough. The systems cannot have us."

The world has made me so jaded. I have to constantly remind myself that I'm in control of being the person I want to be. I control how things affect me. Still extremely difficult. Always balancing a fine line of not giving a shite vs compassion fatigue.

I've just realized that at (almost) 31 years old, I am finally starting to care less about confrontation.

Our Nicaraguan Curly Hair spiderling is getting so big. My first tarantula!
Something interesting I learned is that female tarantulas can live twice as long as males (up to 30 yrs)!
We don't know her sex yet, but her name is Nana and she is gorgeous 💁🏼♀️
