Thoughts are shadows of our feelings - always darker, emptier, and simpler.
Emotions can get in the way, or get you on the way.
But people tend to be a slave to their emotions. We listen more to our heart, and we allow the emotions to drown us. Anxiety comes along and makes it so hard to breathe. People around you and even your own mind have been constantly telling you to do what's best and what's right for you but your heart never listens and you give in to your heart instead of your mind and suffer longer than you should.
We allow our emotions to eat us up and became a terrible person; one that we never thought we'd be, or act like how we never thought we would act. It's so overwhelming you feel that you're slowly dying inside. Things will never be settled that soon and that easily if we carry on letting the emotions eat us inside out. People are selfish. Face it. Every single one including ourselves. Being selfish is not wrong. There's a reason why we became selfish. We've been through so much and been giving in again and again to get betrayed again and again. So it's just a natural instinct for us to be selfish.
All these thoughts are killing people around the world. But the point is, how to we handle it? How do we handle the emotions manipulating us from inside? It eats up sooooo much energy dwelling over all the negativities. Have we forgotten about our worth? Where did all the self confidence go?
If someone doesn't appreciate you, fuck it. If someone don't see the good in you, fuck it. Why did we even allow them to manipulate us? Why did we even allow them to insult us? They're not anywhere better for stooping down so low to hurt us using all the hurtful words against us. They're way more selfish than we are. Be the bigger person, laugh it off and leave. We're worth way more than that. We do not need to rely on someone to be happy especially when that person thinks that they're the best while living in denial. We are what makes us happy. Happiness comes from within, and they can carry on being a joke and move on to hurt someone else (good luck to the next).
Calm down, lock up the beast in you, move on, and be the best version of yourself for your own sake and health, love yourself more and someone more worthy will come along. Fly and be free.
Self reminder - STOP WASTING TIME AND ENERGY ON SUCH PETTY PEOPLE!
