A while ago, I locked myself in the restroom because I just wanted to be alone so I could cry. Let the pain drift off with the tears.Honestly this has been the most reason-less sobbing moment I'd ever endured in life.I guess I'm just stressed out.I stayed home all day,woke up at noon with an ache in the back of my head. Crying helped. Why am I having this feeling that everybody in the world has it together but me? I feel tired.broken.Alone.And it's terrifying.
Some thoughts. Our old generation glorified selfless acts to the point that they started calling putting themselves first as: 'selfish.' To a certain period of time, I have also followed this pattern. I thought taking care of me is selfish. Where taking care of me is fundamental. You cannot pour out of a cup, which is empty. So pour yourself first. I have to unlearn so many of these toxic patterns because these have made my life only miserable and problematic. I am learning that evolving is crucial for living with inner peace. These days, I value so much about inner peace. I'll choose it over others anytime, and it is not selfish. It is in fact for greater good.
