PEOPLE CAN'T HANDLE YOUR HAPPINESS NOR YOUR TEARS

Strange world, isn't it?

1. WHEN YOU SMILE

They say: "She's become arrogant."
"She doesn't see anyone anymore."
"Success has gone to her head."

Your happiness makes them uncomfortable.
Because it reminds them of their own unhappiness.

1. WHEN YOU CRY

They say: "She's doing drama."
"She's an attention seeker."
"Be strong, stop crying."

Your pain makes them uncomfortable too.
Because they don't know how to heal what they didn't break.

SO WHAT DO THEY ACTUALLY WANT?

They want you in the middle.
Not too happy, not too sad.
Invisible. Silent. Convenient.

But you are not born to be convenient for others.

LESSON:

Stop shrinking your joy to make them comfortable.
Stop hiding your tears to avoid their judgment.

Some people will never be happy with you.
Not when you win. Not when you fall.

So live for YOU.
Laugh loud if you want to.
Cry if you need to.

Because the same people who can't handle your smile
Will also gossip about your silence.

YOU OWE THEM NOTHING.
NOT YOUR HAPPINESS. NOT YOUR TEARS.
