“I yearn for mornings where I don’t wake up with dread, for afternoons that don’t feel like drowning in cement. I yearn for a life that feels like poetry instead of routine. I yearn for the arms of someone who sees me as more than a project to fix. I yearn for freedom so raw it stings, for a horizon that doesn’t cage me in.” this whole paragraph is incredible. thank you for sharing this amazing piece!
“this world will happily sell you a version of yourself that feels like prison.”
This makes me think a lot. Lately I’ve been on a social media detox, and honestly, leaving that addiction behind makes me love my life more. I stopped comparing myself so much to people who might be living differently than me, but that doesn’t mean I’m wrong.
So honestly, writing again helps me free my mind and focus on the things that matter.
I needed to read this today because I’ve been so hard on myself for not doing everything and making my life fit inside a perfect little box where I get up and go to the gym, have a healthy breakfast, tick everything off of my todo list. But this just reminded me it’s not all about that
Thank you and I mean it. I am so fing tired of the system, of the people who always told I have something to fix. I am so f in tired of every bs . It's my life and mine only❤️
The old me was like that before — never contented. I always saw myself in a cage, comparing myself to others. Then I realized, I was never in a cage — I was the one putting myself in it. The moment I started to feel every emotion, go through the hardships, and change for the better, life has been good to me. I finally saw beyond my flaws — it was never them, it was always me. But I love the way she sacrificed so much for the present me to end up like this. It was never easy, but the peace, satisfaction, and love that I have right now are worth it.
