Or: Bless Your Heart, and Buh-Bye.
Let’s not sugarcoat it.
We’ve laid out the path:
- Be kind.
- If you can’t be kind, be nice.
- If you can’t be nice, be funny—but don’t punch down.
- If you can’t be funny, be quiet.
And now we come to the final step.
If you can’t do any of that, then go away.
Genuinely. With love. But also… with firmness.
Don’t let the screen door hit you on the way out.
Because the Cult of Brighter Days is not for everyone.
It’s not for trolls.
It’s not for people who think cruelty is a personality.
It’s not for those who confuse honesty with hostility, or “keeping it real” with tearing people down.
We’re not trying to be everything to everyone. We’re not a universal adapter.
We’re a solar-powered flashlight in a blackout—and if you’d rather stay in the dark, that’s fine.
We’re not begging anyone to stay.
We’re curating a vibe.
☀️ This Isn’t Exclusion. It’s Curation.
Boundaries are not cruelty. They are clarity.
The Cult of Brighter Days is open-hearted, yes.
But we’re not an emotional doormat.
We say:
- Come as you are,
- But not as a wrecking ball.
- Bring your pain, but not your unchecked projections.
- Bring your opinions, but hold them with curiosity, not combat.
If that doesn’t work for you?
Truly. Sincerely. We wish you peace. Over there.
🧳 Sometimes the Most Loving Thing Is a Goodbye
We’re not here to argue you into decency.
We’re not handing out emotional labor like Costco samples.
You’re free to choose another path.
We won’t hex you.
We won’t roast you.
(Okay, maybe just a little satire—lovingly.)
But we’re not afraid to say:
If this space doesn’t feel good to you,
then may you find one that does.
We’ll be here, making s’mores and bad jokes, hoping the world gets better one tiny kindness at a time.
🚪What “Go Away” Doesn’t Mean:
- It doesn’t mean you’re beyond redemption.
- It doesn’t mean we hate you.
- It doesn’t mean you’re unworthy.
It just means:
Right now, this isn’t your table.
And that’s okay.
There are other tables. There are other fires.
(They probably don’t have marshmallows though.)
☀️ In Conclusion: Choose the Light, or Don’t
The Cult of Brighter Days is not a cult of coercion.
We don’t shame people into being better.
We invite kindness.
We encourage honesty.
We require respect.
If you can’t meet that bar—even on your off days—then with all the sunshine in our hearts:
We hope you find a better fit.
We won’t chase.
We won’t beg.
We’ll just hold the door open and wave you out.
And if you decide to come back later—maybe after a snack and a nap—we’ll be here.
Probably still weird.
Definitely still laughing.
Always ready with extra marshmallows.
