I just finished reading Bubz’ book (3/5 books I need to read this year). It was a good read—it inspired me to be a better person for myself and for others. Especially now that I’m trying to change the way I deal with things I have no control of.
There’s a chapter in the book that almost made me message someone. It was a strong urge to message that person—not to confront and make things more complicated. But, to voice out what’s in my mind and maybe for closure? However, there was also a part in that chapter that you don’t have to tell the person that you forgive them. You just have to find it in you to forgive that person and move on from what had happened in order to find peace. I opened this up with my fiancé and he told me that maybe what I was feeling was guilt. Probably it was guilt—I kinda felt bad for that person. I ended up not messaging that person anyway. I thought that it is better this way and go on with my life. It also made me think whether it’ll make a change. How would that person take my message? Knowing that person, they might not take it positively. I might end up on their social media saying things I will never get a chance to know because I unfollowed them a long time ago. Besides, she might not be able to see it how I and my friends see it. We have a different perspective. I sincerely wish that person happiness and success.
Trying to change our perspective into a more positive aspect is very hard. There are a lot of challenges that we will encounter. It’s like life is testing you whether you are really serious about changing. It is “easier said than done” kind of thing. Though, no matter how small it is—as long as you are trying to be a better person not just for others, but for yourself as well—it’s already an accomplishment. Just like what they said, a small progress is still a progress. So be proud and be happy because you are definitely not where you were before. Learn to celebrate your small wins ☺️
Well, this is it for now. Stay safe everyone!
Ciao!💋
