Like the wind...What are some self care things you've learned much later in life?
flamingo_pinyataYou don’t have to.
Anything really. No matter what your friends say, what your family says, you’re not obligated to live your life in a way which is not comfortable for you. Or put yourself into situations you dislike just to please other’s expectations.
BoozillaApathy is also my old guy super power. Not about everything, just all the shit that doesn’t matter.
Nice perspective man. It really gives you time to breath.
Oh thank God. I really don’t want to shower or brush my teeth. It’s good to hear that I can just decide I don’t want to.
The word “No” is such a life-changer and it’s definitely something I learned to apply only recently. I grew up being told to be obedient. Parents demanded it and school enforced it. It made me into a people pleaser and it sucked having to do things that I did not enjoy simply because it was what was expected of me.
I’m still struggling with No but I’ve been trying everyday to keep saying No to things I don’t particularly like.
