RE: Nobody Is Watching! [Weekend-Engagement 259]

This blog resonates what I feel back then. I'm still young, 22, and I will be soon joining the league of adulthood. In my recent years, I feel like every move I take, the way I speak, the way I show myself, everything that I do is being watched by the people that surrounds me. I always assume that they're having bad thoughts in their minds about me. I constantly feel that I am in a spotlight, being watched, getting judged, and getting laugh at. It's a battle within ourselves, with our own minds. And the only thing that will set us free is by helping ourselves to cope and fight. I realized that, I just assuming things. That it is just all in my head, and that is not true.
Whenever I feel like someone is thinking or saying bad about me, I always ask myself this:
"Who said that? Them or just me?"
This helps me a lot. To cope and battle my own thoughts. I eventually leaned how to not mind other people's opinions about me. It's their own anyway. I know myself and they don't, so any opinion of then will just be always an opinion and not a fact. In that way, I can be happy, I can be at peace. I don't overthink. I can be calm and just be happy, just be me.
I see that our paths have been very different, and yes, our parents are usually the ones who rule our lives in the early years, but over time I have realized that no one is really watching, and if there are people who dominate us, then we must break free from that yoke, because we are the masters of our own lives. Of course, everything must be done with love, but also with determination. Thank you for your words, my friend. I wish you all the best ❤️
