It is never too late to try.
Life will constantly ask of you to be aware of your own emotions.
To be in control of your internal world.
Courtney Nuss
Otherwise, it will control you.
Because how we respond, means so much more than what actually happens to us in our lives.
But we cant have both.
In my past love relationships, this is something I immensely struggled with.
I was never able to speak my mind to someone that I truly cared about.
And in doing so, I became incredibly unhappy, and also extremely dependent on the other person.
Rather than asking myself at the time, whether I truly was.
Because you couldnt imagine living without them.
A pressure that they simply cannot ever fulfill or live up to.
Because its so hard to be yourself, in a world that constantly judges you.
That constantly tries to tell you that you are not enough.
And this in my opinion, is not just the key to a healthy relationship-but a key to life.
Lets be honest with them about what we want, instead of hiding and burying it away.
While also encouraging them to communicate what they want.
Thus, finding a healthy balance of what makes two people happy, to make it be together.
Imagine a world for a moment, in which people communicated openly and honestly.
They said what they felt, when they felt it.
They said what they mean, when they meant it.
How much better this world would be.
How much happier people would be.
But it all starts with you.
And it starts with one single decision, that ripples into every person and every relationship of your life.
Will you wear a mask?
Or, will you finally start being honest with yourself and who you are?
The choice is always ours.
