'ME'
This evening, while sipping tea, I found myself thinking about who I am. I thought that I would type down my thoughts before I feel like not doing it..
I just realised that what works for other people… doesn’t always work for me. Just because everyone’s doing something doesn’t mean I have to. Sometimes, it doesn’t even make sense.
Take coffee. Some people can’t live without it. It’s their obsession. Me? I love it. I enjoy it. But I don’t need it. It’s just there. It doesn’t matter if I drink tea for a change. The warmth of the cup, the quiet sip- I like it. That’s all.
I have my own pace, my own way of doing things. I know what I like. I know what I don’t. I know what I need to feel okay. I get angry over things that feel like a violation. I get emotional over things too, though most of the time, I don’t show it. I just… hold it inside.
Boundaries aren’t walls. They help me feel like myself. I don’t feel obligated to explain them to people who don’t want to understand. And honestly, I don’t see why I should.
I don’t want to change myself for anyone-not family, not friends, not anyone. My preferences, my personal boundaries, the small and big things that make me 'me'… they’re mine. And they’re not negotiable.
Even if my choices look strange to other people. Even if they question them, roll their eyes, try to convince me otherwise. That’s fine. They’re mine.
My peace is mine. My life is mine. And that’s enough.
