" Many of us are slaves to our minds. Our own mind is our worst enemy. We try to focus, and our mind wanders off. We try to keep stress at bay, but anxiety keeps us awake at night. We try to be good to the people we love, but then we forget them and put ourselves first" -Sakyong Mipham
Why is it that I fear myself more than others?
Why do I see tears as a sign of weakness?
Why can't I put on a genuine smile?
Why do I fake emotions?
Why do I crush my hopes and dreams?
Why...am I me?
---------------------------------------------------------------------
People try to be strong but the pain always seems to creep upon them.
People try not to cry but yet the tears always fall.
People try to be how everyone else sees them but, always end up failing.
In the end, they always end up being their self, no matter how hard they try...but that's okay.
It's fine to show weaknesses. It's fine to cry. It's fine to be yourself. One day people are going to realise that being able to show weakness is the greatest strength of all as it shows you're comfortable with yourself. It shows you're okay with letting others see you at your weakest point.
And really that's all that matters; the fact you're comfortable in your own skin
