      There is no greater suffering than constantly measuring yourself and coming up short  ,  except perhaps the realization that your suffering is hurting others. The people whom you love and the ones who care about you. But where do we learn these things  ,  really ?
     We don't come crying out of the womb because of our birth weight or because we have no money in this brand new world.
     We learn to measure and we learn to attach our self-worth to those measurements.
     Because there is no 𝒈𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒕𝒆𝒓 suffering than thinking that you must isolate yourself from the ones you love and care about to prevent yourself from hurting them  ,  when really you're hurting them by telling them the lies you told yourself made yourself to believe. If you've been through everything  ,  nothing can tear you apart. Never change yourself. And 𝒏𝒐𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈 hurts more than to lose yourself  ,  and then to lose the closest thing you could have to family.
