Its nice to feel understood and for others to have some genuine interest in what were going through.
Hai Phung
Guidance.Not everyone needs to be a hero.
But someone can be a helping hand to anyone who feels lost or confused.
A little help goes a long way.
Life is a cycle of emotions.
How we are treated is how we will treat others.
Honesty.This includes being honest to yourself, to others, and being brutally honest.
Its good to be around people that can handle your true and authentic feelings and emotions.
Those are the people you want to surround yourself with.
Those are the people that will stay with you through hard times.
Its always good to take a step back and evaluate your feelings and emotions.
Being honest with yourself and with others will help you in life more than it will hurt you.
The right people will accept your honesty even if it is uncomfortable to hear.
Forgiveness towards ourselves.We all make mistakes.
Theres no way to prevent that.
Maybe we escalated something and made it worse.
To be more spontaneous.Going out to a place youre not familiar with.
Randomly contacting a friend who you havent seen in a while.
Having a night full of self-care when youre normally a workaholic.
Being spontaneous spices up life and can bring new energy.
It helps you feel young.
To step outside your comfort zone is healthy even though we have the ability to believe its unhealthy.
Intimacy.This doesnt have to mean sex.
There are different ways to be intimate.
you’re free to share experiences with someone who understands you or wants to help you.
Being intimate means being vulnerable and giving yourself up.
Trusting another person to surrender yourself to.
Finding someone to be intimate with does a lot of healing.
No matter what form of intimacy it is.
Encouragement.Like I said earlier, we all make mistakes.
Its nice for others to have our backs when we do feel down on ourselves.
Sometimes we need a hand to help us up.
And that its okay if you have days where you cant be the best version of yourself.
Hope.This isnt the most peaceful time.
But, I dont think being hopeless that these problems wont be solved will do any good.
Its important to keep hope.
The idea that things will get better is what will keep us going.
Its also going to provide change in the world.
Everything starts with an idea, and an idea comes from hope.
For people to rest.You cant be strong all the time.
You cant be productive all the time.
You cant be at your best all the time.
We need to be easier on ourselves and rest.
The days we feel weak, we should rest.
During holidays or celebrations, we should allow ourselves to relax.
Even if youre not doing your best, its unhealthy to punish yourself.
Sometimes the best thing you could do is rest your mind not just for yourself, but for others.
A well-rested version of yourself is a better version than a tired version of yourself.
