one of the worst thing in
a human's nature is
its seek for validation.
we want to be relevant,
we want to be loved on the things we love,
we want to be appreciated.
and sometimes we went through
extra miles just to be recognized.
to feel secured,
to feel valued,
to feel enough.
and when people around you
doesn't acknowledge the things you do,
the unbearable pain blooms
deep inside your tangled heart.
you tend to overthink,
you despise yourself,
you ruin you.
and love, that's wrong.
validation must come from you.
acceptance must come from within.
when you learn that
validation is recognition
not by others but by yourself,
you'll finally be able to see
how beautiful life is.
you don't need other's validation
for you to be complete.
just you, yourself alone,
makes everything in your life valid.
remember this:
you are your own validation,
because you are our loving God's creation.
