I wish I had learned to prioritise myself earlier in life

Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.

I wish I did what I did in life – for myself.

I wish I had prioritised myself while doing something.

This is a lesson I learnt later in my life.

Earlier in my life I did it to please others.

But once I realise that if I continue doing things for others, I will keep feeling low and eventually give up.

I’m still working on doing stuff for myself.

And I don’t claim to be perfect. But I’m trying.

When I prioritise myself and do things for myself, I feel more satisfied.

Thanks for reading this line. It means a lot!

I wish

I wish I had the courage to tell her

That I think about her

That I care for her

That I don’t want to lose her

–

I wish I had the intelligence to understand her

To feel her pain

To let her make mistakes but

To let me feel her pain

–

I wish I was closer to her

To protect her

To be by her side

Even when she didn’t want me

–

I wish I could be someone she prefers

Someone she thinks is handsome

And be hot and cool

And everything she adores

–

I wish I could tell her

That I love her

That I just want her soul

That I just want to be there for her.

Why am I doing this?

I am doing this for myself.

I am doing this for my soul.

I am doing this for my mental health.

I am doing this for my hope of a good life.

I am doing this for my dreams.

I am doing this for my pleasure.

I am doing it for my passions.

I am doing this for my truth.

I matter, all these things matter and I am doing this unapologetically for myself.
