Choose yourself, not once, not twice...

Image
Please don't ever abandon  yourself again.  Especially not in the name of trying to be validated by a temporary connection.  Stop holding on to things that don't demonstrate respect for your value. Start investing in things that remind you of your worth.  You deserve so much more.  And don’t shrink yourself just to fit into spaces that were never meant to hold your light.  Stop explaining your worth to those committed to misunderstanding you. Silence can be dignity too. Choose yourself, not once, not twice, but every single time it feels uncomfortable to do so. Let go without guilt, walk away without fear, and trust that what’s truly yours will never require you to abandon who you are. Grow into someone who feels like home to their own soul. Because at the end of it all,  the longest relationship you’ll ever have is the one you build with yourself.

When you get older, you value things differently. You can see how precious it is to have peace of mind, to sleep with your heart feeling at ease. You can see the true price of everything and everyone in your life. Time slows down and you can savor moments much better. Because the older you get, the more you understand. How everything is temporary. How everything is just passing. Even yourself. And there's nothing for you to do. Except to enjoy the present. And pass in this life in peace. -Metanoia

You don't ask people with knives in their stomachs what would make them happy; happiness is no longer the point. It's all about survival; it's all about whether you pull the knife out and bleed to death or keep it in. -Nick Hornby
