Not everything that weighs you down is yours to carry.
Why does every responsibility need to be a burden? As we learn to take responsibility, why does it keep increasing slowly, and why does every person need to make us aware of how little we are doing? Why can’t anyone see how hard we are trying every single day, every single minute? The burden becomes so much that we don’t even realise when we stop laughing, zoning out in the crowd and stop doing what we really love. Then I ask myself the question, who is going to save me? And the instant answer that I get is myself. My courage and my abilities to know my capabilities. As an adult, I know that I should keep myself as the biggest priority, and I should take care of myself. The day we start thinking for ourselves and saying no, which is necessary, everything will change, but for ourselves, everything will get better. What we like, what we love to do, what we want to be in the future, all of these questions are answered by ourselves only. There is no one to share the burden, and I don’t think we need anyone. It’s life, it is going to be full of responsibilities; however, when it starts to suffocate you, it’s time to take action and think for yourself. Keeping boundaries while choosing yourself is very important and healthy. I feel like the world doesn’t allow a person to live their life but to care for others, but that’s not right. Aren’t we supposed to live the life that is given to us? So just focus on yourself and don’t let the responsibilities of others ruin your life. Speak up for yourself and do it because you want it, not because others expect from you. Others will go; they will live their life while putting responsibility on you. But you have to speak up for yourself, don’t allow others to control your life. You live once, so live it to the fullest.
Lay your burden down.
