Hey, y'all, it is JL, and I am here for a snippet of what it's like to heal out loud and live out loud today. I was asked a question in response to a recent experience. The question was, how do you feel? Ill. What I shared with the person was how two months ago, my significant other and I went out of the country for medical tourism and that he had dental work done

Well, you did say, how do you phil, what's funny is that I have always gotten more attention than any guy I was with, whether ex husband, current boyfriend, and so I wouldn't know what that would be like if the tables return. These are attractive men, so they get their fair level of attention

And it's quite funny how you said your significant other went through a dental because I was just not looking at wisdom tooth extractions because I'm getting pulled. Mine getting mine pulled in about a couple of days. And so this post couldn't have come at a better time because now I'm able to see it in both perspectives. Right

And I said to her, I said, so likely the reason why I probably have not keyed in or looked into or thought about is he getting more or less attention is because he already, prior to the dental procedure, he already has a large following. And people that want his attention, that want information from him or females that that first part

So however you want to celebrate your birthday, now that you are a working adult, you do that. You do that and then new people that come into your life, you introduce to them how you want to be celebrated. Secondly is the best advice I was given, which it sounds like you are on that track, is I got all of my wisdom teeth pulled at the same time

Your boyfriend got his wisdom toothbrush, but how does it make you feel? Do you feel some type of way when you have a family member that's sick and people are asking about them? I don't think anybody's getting any more attention. Khan, I just yeah, trying to find something to eat and we talk about what's soft and what would be good for me to eat, and we just kind of keep on moving
I love how you put that. Scratch the season and it being us all the time, could not agree more. And then operating from a place of abundance and self full. And yes, yes, it was a strange question for the person to ask, but I think it's also very indicative of, I guess you could say, a pattern with in society

Hey, Christina, thank you for chiming in. Okay? You've said some dope things, and I might have to play this back again tomorrow when I'm in a clearer headspace. But right now, right now, especially for me, and I don't know if I've ever shared on anyone's podcast, I'm sharing now. So I have a doctorate degree. It's in health administration

What you are doing, that's the way it should be. We should be self full. Society creates all of this negativity around the word selfish, but selfish, to put it plain and simple. Because how can I if I'm not taking care of me? If I'm not pouring into me, how can I take care of you? Dr

Hey, JL wanted to respond. Did not know exactly how to respond. So I guess what I'm going to say is, which I haven't listened to any of the other replies. I don't really know the direction that other people may have taken. But since you did ask a direct question, try to answer it. That is in a state between maybe being content, maybe I think that's probably giving it too much too much clout. Might be an overstatement

And I think that when you know that person asks you that question, my mind because I'm a thinker my mind goes in so many different directions and I start to speculate, not assuming that this person is thinking that, but then again, maybe they are. Maybe they're asking you this question because these are really internalized real thoughts that they would have if they were going if something like this happened with their partner

Like, oh, it was only within one decade that I was able to make this transition and I'm able to process things differently? Or do you still have those moments more often than not? And if you do still have those moments, whether you have them frequently or infrequently, then how do you manage it in the moment and

I'm so super proud of my own growth as well and just all of the things that I'm learning about me. I am perfectly imperfect, and I am at a point where I am embracing the imperfections, more aware of them, and I'm men, right. I have my flaws

Where I have this one friend where she kind of gravitated towards this journey that you and I have been on, like the healing journey and self awareness and self care and the betterment of self. She attached on to it quick. However, we had a slight situation yesterday that I'm going to address with her to tell her that when you're on the path of doing the right things. You can't revert back and do things that are absolutely wrong. But I'm babbling now
