This place taught me to contemplate a meaning beyond the self — beyond ego, success, and achievement.
A meaning I felt through my connection with God, with myself, with wildlife, nature, and the people around me.
A pure connection — woven with light and darkness, highs and lows!
Somewhere on Earth right now, rain is falling on an empty road, waves are breaking on a beach with nobody watching, and the sun is rising over a mountain with nobody there to photograph it.
The world keeps being beautiful even when nobody is looking.
You can't fix how people perceive you. You can be your most honest self and still be misunderstood. Nobody sees you for who you actually are. People see you through their own experiences, insecurities, and expectations. Let them. And stop trying to change what they think of you. Protect your peace, and just stay true to yourself. That's all that matters. Let them think whatever they want.
