Reminder to Myself
I might not have one specific, grand dream. For me, it is enough to just be myself in every situation and do the things I love. When you live authentically, you can pursue your goals freely, without carrying unnecessary pain or baggage. We all walk different paths. Someone might be successful today, but nobody knows what tomorrow brings. Jealousy is a never-ending trap, so there is no point in envying other people's lives.
At the same time, if you just dream without ever waking up to take action, you get nowhere. I always hold onto Pablo Picasso's words: 'Everything you can imagine is real.' I use this as fuel; if I can envision it, I must make it a reality. To keep myself grounded, I practice my own form of self-healing with a simple reminder: 'Stay calm in every situation; panicking changes nothing.'
These days, people share too much of their lives. I have to remind myself that not everybody needs to know what you are up to. Honestly, do people even genuinely care anymore? Yet, even if the world lacks respect, we shouldn't lower ourselves to that level. Supporting humanity is a must. Even if I dislike someone, I would still care and help them if they were starving.
Throughout my life, I have encountered all kinds of personalities. Sometimes they bother me, but you cannot force someone to be just like you. Just because someone is annoying does not mean you should hate them. People constantly compete for success and higher education, often forgetting that they aren't the only ones in the world. Competing might be a habit for many, but you must remember: if you want to plant roses, you don't have to destroy the jasmines
