For the rest of your life, you don't owe others and don't wronged yourself
On this quiet afternoon, I sat in front of the window, my mind drifting away, reminiscing about the past. When we are young, we always yearn to grow up quickly and look forward to a free life. However, as the years go by, we find that adult life is not as beautiful as we imagined, but full of helplessness and sadness.
In the past, I was always busy for others, for my family, for friends, and for work, but I often neglected my own needs. I'm used to thinking about others, but I've never thought about taking good care of myself. At that time, I always felt that as long as I could help others, it was worth it. As a result, I became more and more busy, busy adding color to the lives of others, but forgetting my heart's desires.
Until one day, I stopped and quietly looked at my life, only to realize that I had lost myself in the crowd. I've given so much for others that I've neglected my own heart. I found myself forgetting how to really care about myself and how to be kind to myself. I am generous to others, but I am very demanding of myself. I have always been in the habit of giving up my own needs to meet the expectations of others. In my pursuit of other people's approval and affection, I gradually lost myself.
However, when I realized this, I knew I had to change. I can no longer allow myself to indulge in the trajectory of living for others, I must learn to take care of myself and care for my inner needs. I can no longer grieve myself and cater to other people's expectations, I must insist on being myself and living my true self.
So, I began to learn to say no to things that weren't right for me, to stay away from unhealthy relationships, and to get out of situations that weren't suitable. I learned to respect my heart, listen to my inner voice, and walk my own path with determination. Instead of seeking the approval and affection of others, I began to pursue my own heart's desire. Instead of aggrieving myself for the expectations of others, I began to work hard for my own happiness.
The rest of your life is a precious time for everyone. During this time, I want to be able to take good care of myself, love myself, and live my true self. I don't want to leave any regrets and regrets for the rest of my life, I want to be able to do it without indebting others and not wronging myself. I want to live the life I want and be the master of my life. I want to be my true self and live a truly happy life.
