I don’t care how many followers you have on social media

My name is Jojo and I don’t care how many followers you have on social media.  I don’t care what your engagement is like, I care about how well you know yourself.  I care about how you make people feel and how you feel about yourself.  I’m interested in what you do that brings you joy.  I want to know what keeps you awake at night and which changes you wish to see in the world.

I don’t care about other peoples perceptions of you.  I care about how real you are when we speak.  I may compliment you if I like your jacket, shoes or hair but deep down I am more interested to hear about your passions.  I don’t care about the people who let you down, I care about who you are thankful for.  I want to hear about how you look after your well being.  I don’t care about who has rejected you nor do I care about mistakes you have made in the past.  I care about the lessons you have learnt and the areas you feel that you have grown.  I don’t care about how much money you earn or where you live.  I care about what makes you laugh and cry.  I don’t care about how busy you are.  I want to know about the times you are present and feel most alive.  I don’t care if you have rock solid abs or extra cushioning, I care that you eat and move in a way that feels enjoyable and authentic to you.  I don’t care about which school you go to or went to.  I care about what you want to do with your time here.  I don’t care about what other people expect of you. I care about what excites you and makes your heart beat a little faster. I don’t care what your job title is, I care that you do something that makes you feel alive.  I don’t care if you shop in charity shops or designer boutiques, I care that you wear things that make you feel fabulous.  I don’t care if you are into make up or the natural look.  I care about how your eyes light up when you talk.  I don’t care about your gender or sexual preferences, I care about your vibe and energy. I don’t care if you would prefer not to sing or dance with me.  I care about the kind of music that makes you feel unstoppable.  I don’t care about your status, I care about your intentions.  I don’t care if you bake and craft with your child, I care if you raise them with empathy.  I don’t care how often you have sex with your partner.  I care that you feel loved and valued.  I don’t care about your flaws, I care about how you use your strengths.  I don’t care how many likes you get on your social posts.  I care that you feel every word that you share.  I care that you take the time to be true to who you really are.  I care that you do things that make your eyes light up.  I care that you live.  I care that you feel.  I care that you connect. I care that you connect with humans, animals and our planet.  I care that you look at the sky and admire a beautiful cloud pattern, sunset or star.  And realise that there is a place for you in this world.  I care that you know your value and that you stop being so hard on yourself.   My name is Jojo and it’s incredible to be here.
