We're pretty sure we've shared this as a Things We Love Thursday in the past, but it seems like we've had a lot of folks come through the door having a few more downs than ups lately (both big and small, and ourselves included), and darn it, it bears repeating. And yes, while this is a shameless plug for an awesome banner from that we have for sale at the shop, we also have been reminding ourselves of the meaning behind it from the sweetly brilliant Ted Lasso himself:
"Belief doesn’t just happen because you hang something up on a wall. All right? It comes from in here (in your heart). You know? And up here (in your head). Down here (in your gut).
Only problem is we all got so much junk floating through us, a lot of times we end up getting in our own way. You know, crap like envy, or fear, shame. I don’t want to mess around with that s**t anymore. You know what I mean. Do you?…
You know what I wanna mess around with? The belief that I matter… regardless of what I do or don’t achieve. Or the belief that we all deserve to be loved, whether we’ve been hurt or maybe we’ve hurt somebody else. Or what about the belief of hope? Yeah? That’s what I want to mess with.
Believing that things can get better. That I can get better. That we will get better.
Oh man. To believe in yourself. To believe in one another. Man, that’s fundamental to being alive. And look, if you can do that, if each of you can truly do that, can’t nobody rip that apart."
So there you go, folks. A super long post for this week, but we hope you find space to believe in yourself and those around you, whether you're facing something good or bad. ♥️
