Despite your best efforts, things don't seem to work out. Where you struggle, others seem to have it better. How do you handle yourself in the face of doubts, hardships, and a life that appears to be in Hard Mode?

You may not always be able to control the hardships that confront you, but still, you can get to choose how to handle them. You get to choose to walk your own path.

Between being so selfless to the point that you allow others to take advantage of you, and confusing selfishness with self-love.

To be unworthy of rejection. To be ignored completely is more harmful than parting ways. Knowing that someone you care for didn’t think you deserve the courtesy of an explanation. Is it the lack of respect, or the fear of confrontation?

You've been too hard in dealing with yourself. So unforgiving until it left you feeling numb. And now, all you do is endure. How do you admit that you're weak, vulnerable, and possibly wrong?

Change is inevitable. However, you could be too afraid to leave your comfort zone and confront it. Along with the necessity of change, it's crucial to not confuse what's common for what's normal.

You're overwhelmed by feelings that overburden you. Feelings that make you wish to be emotionless and numb.

Overthinking overthinking, the balance between order and chaos, and those who don’t want to listen but only want to speak and project their thoughts.

It isn’t always easy, or straightforward for that matter, to be honest with yourself. But that is a prerequisite in recognizing the truth, and being able to speak it.
