One of the biggest trauma’s I ever experienced was when I was 13 years old I was out one summer day with friends, and anyways I climbed out to this dodgy roof that had some glass that was unbroken, the skylights and I scale across the roof, get to this metal beam sit down, and I have perfect position to kick the skylights, and I kick it and my leg goes down into it and got caught. I pulled it out and got a serious injury, literally 88 stitches. And two of my “friends” at the time made fun of it. One time a “friend” said to me on a Discord call while we were playing some video game and I killed him or something he said “Next time I see you I am going to rip the stitches out of your leg.” Another time one other “friend” mocked the way I was screaming after my injury happend, as I was screaming in a very hysterical way. And it just made me feel horrible and at the time I thought it was just “banter” as these guys would say after. “Oh I am only taking the piss lad.” “Can you not take a joke, naw?” Nonsense and I wish I could tell younger me to cut those d*ckheads off ASAP and be alone rather than be with those crabs.

Trying to convince someone to see your value is a quiet, exhausting battle. When we continually bend ourselves to fit into someone else's life, we forget that genuine connection never requires a performance or a plea. Your worth is simply not a negotiation. Walking away from forced relationships is a profound act of self-respect. It releases the heavy burden of needing external validation and returns your energy right back to where it belongs. You do not have to wait to be chosen by someone else to feel entirely whole.

Fall in love with your life on purpose. Stop waiting for big achievements to feel happy. Start creating small moments that feel good. Wake up early. Step outside. Enjoy your coffee. Move your body. Wear what makes you feel confident. These simple things are not small... they are the foundation of a beautiful life. Happiness is built daily, not someday. Create a life you don’t need to escape from. Because when you start appreciating the little moments, you realize your life is already worth loving. 🤍🌄✨

There is a part of you that is still a child! And you should not downplay that, you should heal it. Do not settle for a damaged inner child. Get that trauma out of you heal, restore your inner child. It will return so much zest and happiness to your life. :)

Buddhism teaches acceptance— not as weakness, but as deep wisdom. The moment you stop fighting reality, peace begins. You don’t have to be flawless to be worthy. You don’t have to become someone else to be enough. Your imperfections are not your failures— they are part of your human experience. And the same is true for everyone around you. People will disappoint you. You will make mistakes. Things will not always go as planned. That’s life. But when you accept yourself as you are… and allow others to be who they are— without constant judgment, without resistance— Something beautiful happens. Your mind becomes lighter. Your heart becomes softer. And peace… quietly finds its way in. Stop chasing perfection. Start embracing reality. Because peace doesn’t come from everything being perfect— it comes from accepting that nothing is.
