What you’re gonna wanna know first is that feeling something does not make it true.

This isnt the advice youre used to receiving.
The world wants you to believe that you should trust yourself, implicitly, and about everything.
God & Man
The words you hear most often are to listen to your instincts and know that your feelings are valid.
you’re free to feel that you are worthless, that doesnt make it true.
you’ve got the option to feel that someone dislikes you, that doesnt make it true.
you could feel that you are a genius, that doesnt make it true.
Your emotions can tell youwhatyou want, but your mind has to tell youhowto get it.
Sometimes, youll have the same feeling, and its because major change needs to occur in your life.
Either way, youre going to have to learn to think clearly about your life.
If yes, what?
If so, how can I address it?
Most of the time, the biggest shifts that need to happen are with your perspective.
If youre someone who struggles with your emotions, youll know that thats no easy task.
It will be the hardest battle of your life.
It will require a reckoning.
It will require the deepest strength you could ever muster.
It will force you out of your comfort zone.
It will set flames to everything you knew.
And on the other side, youll realize: youre okay, and you always have been.
The war was in your head.
The pain was in your body.
Youre never stuck forever, youre never in purgatory for long.
You only had to know how to reroute your thoughts, or redirect your actions.
