  • What People Say About You Doesn’t Define You

    In life, there will always be hundreds of people who have something to say about you — and not all of it will be kind. The truth is, you can’t control what others choose to think or speak. And you shouldn’t try to.

    What you can control is how much space you allow those voices to take in your mind.

    If someone is genuinely important to you, talk to them. Clarify things once. Maybe twice, if the situation repeats. But beyond that, stop chasing explanations. Constantly needing to justify yourself is not a sign of love or respect — it’s a sign of a weak relationship.

    People who truly value you will not make you defend yourself over and over again.

    Let your peace come from within, not from others opinion.

  • Chasing Everything, Finding Nothing

    I always use to think that I cannot understand people like if a person is lying on my face, if a person is genuinely caring or very good at faking, what people say do they actually mean it?

    Then it later hit me, when people are not true to their own selves how am I suppose to know such people. We keep on losing ourselves may be in the rat race, peer pressure, pride or ego, unnecessary material things, etc. So much importance given to such unimportant things in life that we forget what actually matters and since we are blindly rushing just because everyone else is we don’t know what exactly we are and what do we need and what is it that makes us genuinely happy.
