1 : You want to know what the saddest thing is?
We live in a world of hypocrites where people wish for your failure, but smile in front of you as if they love you. If i had to live my life over again, i wouldn't change a thing. Except i'd open my eyes a little. Sometimes my excessive kindness causes me problems. Too kind. Too naive. I've learned that it's not my job to fix what i didn't break. I used to fear losing people, but now...i fear losing my time. If i live according to others opinions, i will never become the person i'm meant to be. Life is too short. So i enjoy each day, laugh whenever i can, cry only when necessary, and never let anyone bring me down. One value i never want to lose is my dignity. I've realised that as i grow, there will be fewer people around me. A mature mind does not tolerate falsehood in others. It doesn't matter who i lose, as long as i don't lose myself. I'm fine with that.

2 : I never force anyone to choose me. If you think you can find something better elsewhere, then go ahead. I'm not holding you back. Life's too short to hang on to someone who's not sure they want to stay. I believe in freedom, in the truth of feelings. If you must stay, let it be your heart that tells you this is where you belong. Not because i asked you to, i want to be a choice...not a default option. I want someone who stays for who i am, not who you want me to be. The door is always open, you're free to leave at anytime.

3 : I would rather be hated, for who i truly am, than to be adored, for someone who i'm not. Love based on a lie is of no worth. I would rather be rejected for being my true self, than to be embraced by the false side of me. People don't have to like me, and i won't change, how...i am, to suit, other people. What you see, is what you get. I've done bad things, and made plenty of poor decisions. But i'll always remain true to myself. No matter who you're with or what new friends you make, never change yourself to suit them.

4 : I haven't changed, i've just understood. I've understood that i need to prioritize myself, because nobody else will do it for me. I've spent too long taking care of others...now...i'm taking care of myself. For years, i've put others needs before my own, hoping that someone will do the same for me. But...the reality is, if i don't take care of myself...nobody else will. This might seem selfish..but, i can't keep exhausting myself. People who don't even recognize my efforts anymore. Everyone has their limits...and i've reached mine. It's time for me to reevaluate my priorities and place my well being at the top of the list. If you're looking for me, i'll probably rediscovering what truly makes me happy, and honestly, it's about me time...it's time to be the king.

5 : I don't care who is doing better than me, because the truth is...i'm not in competition with anyone else. The only person i need to be better than is the person i was yesterday. Last year i was different, i've grown, improved and learned a lot. That's what really matters....it's me versus me. Every day i wake up ready to push myself further, to challenge my limits and become the best version of myself. I don't let other people's success to make me feel small...their journey is theirs and mine is mine.

6 : Let me make one thing clear. I don't care how important you are to me. The moment you make it clear that i'm not important to you, you become a stranger to me. I've learned that loyalty is everything. If you can't see my worth, then you have no place in my life. I don't waste time on people who don't value me. Respect is earned...not given. And i give respect to those who deserve it, but the moment you show me that you don't care, you lose my respect, you lose my trust. People come and go, i don't have time for games..or for people who think they can treat me any way they like. Simple, you respect me, i respect you, you stand by me, i stand by you...but if you decide to walk away, don't expect me to follow. So, if you're in my life, remember this. It's a privilege, not a right. I won't beg for attention, i don't chase after anyone. I focus on those who matter.

7 : The reason you overthink is because someone in your life, that you trusted and loved..hurt you, and they just didn't hurt you a little bit, they hurt you bad, and the wounds were deep. So now you have to start predicting every scenario...you had to be hyper vigilant on protecting yourself. You've got the ability to walk into a room and determine if it's a good place to be, or a bad place. You can meet somebody, and you know if they're good or if they're bad almost instantly. You think of every single scenario in your head, you think of a way out, you think of all the good things and all the bad things that could happen. You got this amazing sense to tell if somebody is telling the truth or lying to you, and one thing that you don't ever want to do..is lie to an overthinker, they know almost instantly.
