Selfish

“Know the differences between those who stay to feed the soil, and those and those who come to grab the fruit.” - Unknown

We have made the word selfish into such a dirty word. But I think we all deserve to be slightly selfish. We deserve to do what’s best for us and make ourselves a priority as long as it’s not at the cost of someone else.

So many people are made to believe that in order to be a good person they have to give up so much of themselves in order to make other’s happy and to be socially accepted. You do not have to empty your cup in order to be loved or to be accepted.

Own who you are, invest in yourself, and pour from a full cup, You are not a bad person to take time to practice self care and the word no is not a dirty word. So if you don't want to change your plans don't, if you don't want to get over it don't, and if you want to cry then do it. Think about who you are and what truly makes you happy and what feels safe.

Again I repeat it is never ok to get your happiness at the expense of anyone else or your safety at the cost of someone else's safety.
