I’m slowly learning that the energy it takes to react to every bad thing that happens to you drains you and stops you from seeing the other good things in life.  I’m slowly learning that I’m not going to be everyone’s cup of tea and I won’t be able to get everyone to treat me the way I want to be treated and that’s okay. I’m slowly learning that trying so hard to ‘win’ anyone is just a waste of time and energy and it fills you with nothing but emptiness. I’m slowly learning that not reacting doesn’t mean I’m okay with things, it just means I’m choosing to rise above it. I’m choosing to take the lesson it has served and learn from it. I’m choosing to be the bigger person. I’m choosing my peace of mind because that’s what I truly need. I don’t need more drama. I don’t need people making me feel like I’m not good enough. I don’t need fights and arguments and fake connections.  I’m slowly learning that sometimes not saying anything at all says everything. I’m slowly learn

But that harsh truth is, that it does. Often we're so in grossed in our work that we forget to value,  appreciate & recognise those that we're actually working for.  We get so wrapped up in our own lives,  that we forget the people that make up our life.  Whatever is taken for granted will eventually be taken away.  That's when we end up missing the most, the people that we least appreciated. Because we never think that the last time will be the last time,  we think we have more but we dont. Because this is really the last ~
