Overextending yourself for people and making their emergencies your own emergency doesn’t make you more loved; it makes you more used. Trust me, they’d be fine without you. Being kind is powerful. Being kind without boundaries is exhausting.
"The greatest sin you can commit against your own life, is to know what you want...and not to act." - Stafford
Do not betray yourself.
Take the Chance.
Denzel Washington was right, always be thankful for the bad things in life. They open your eyes to see the good things you weren't paying attention to before.
The easiest person to take for granted is usually the hardest to replace. Why?
Because they made loyalty look normal. Because they made consistency look normal. Because they made effort look normal
So normal that you start believing you can find that anywhere. That's why many people leave good partners NOT because they found better BUT because they assume that can be easily found
The person you get "bored" of is often the person you'll end up looking for in other people
If you have that person in your life, value them.
The kindest thing literature does is remind you that your peculiar little feelings have always existed. Someone, in some century, was equally confused by love, bored by society, tired of performing, and hungry for meaning.
