I Thought Leaving Would Feel Like Freedom.

Image
  After a month, everything seems so normal and dull... as if nothing ever happened. I am happy, but I feel empty. I waited for this for the longest time... three years and counting. I honestly did not like how I left things. It felt rushed. It felt sad. And honestly, if I could go back in time... I would probably do it the same way. I can't help but blame myself for leaving a toxic environment. I was suffering. Scars have been drawn on my body. Unwanted habits have now become normal for me. I feel restless. I am exhausted. I am tired, yet I feel like I don't deserve sleep. Why, though? I only left because I was tired of being exploited. I want to be selfish. I want to put myself first. I have been nothing but a dirty doormat. My mind, soul, and body crave peace and sleep, but I feel like the moment I lay down, I will fall behind. Am I over exaggerating my grief? Or am I trying to convince myself that leaving was the wrong step? I feel lonely. I don't crave people to intera...

Feeling Left Behind? Why Your Slow Journey Still Matters

 

Still sharing my unfiltered thoughts and heartbeats ๐ŸŽ€๐Ÿ’•.

Have you been feeling a little sad and out of place ๐Ÿ’” - like maybe I'm not doing life "right"?.

 It kinda seems like the people around you are moving fast ⏩, achieving big things, staying busy, being loud ....and always telling you to "do more", "be more" or "stay active"

And it hurts sometimes.

 Because while people are moving forward, you feel stuck and you ask yourself "what if I don't get there๐Ÿคง?"

It's okay if you feel like, you're still learning how to achieve things ❤‍๐Ÿฉน

It's okay to feel like you're still learning how to love yourself ๐Ÿ’– or still learning how to fit in ❤️.

It's frustrating when others look at your life and you're not doing enough ๐Ÿ’”. 

Maybe it's too quiet for them

Maybe you're not moving fast enough 

Maybe your journey looks too different for them to understand ๐Ÿ˜•.

Maybe people encourage you to make it in life fast, or pressure you to achieve something cuz your mates have achieved it. 

Maybe they mock and laugh at how you express yourself and live your life..... because it's different and it seems odd ๐Ÿ˜ž๐Ÿ’” 

But you know what?.....

It's your life ๐Ÿ’ž. Your pace ๐Ÿคž. Your voice ❤️. 

You're not here to rush, you're here to grow ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’•.

Why choose to slow down?

๐ŸŽ€: Because life is not a race

๐ŸŽ€: You can't measure your growth with someone's ruler

๐ŸŽ€: If you're always rushing, you can miss the best and exciting moments of your life ❤️

The truth is, slow ๐Ÿฆฅ doesn't mean stuck ๐Ÿคง❤‍๐Ÿฉน

Sometimes the quiet seasons are the ones where you're growing the most ๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’•.

 You have to acknowledge that not all progress is loud ๐Ÿคซ. 

Some of the strongest people are the ones who keep going softly, gently without needing the world's approval ๐Ÿ‘Ž.

So maybe you're not behind at all.... maybe you're exactly where you need to be ๐Ÿฅน❤️.

If you ever feel like you're "too slow ๐Ÿฆฅ", "too different" or "not enough".......just breathe ๐Ÿ’“


You don't need to follow someone else's timeline. You don't need to prove anything to people who don't understand your journey ๐Ÿ˜ช๐Ÿ’”. You're allowed to grow quietly. To heal slowly. To build a life that feels right to you❤️


๐Ÿ’Œ: You're not late. You're not lost. You're just on a different road and that's perfectly okay ๐Ÿ’—
