FREE YOURSELF FROM THE EXPECTATIONS OF OTHERS

Free yourself from the expectations of others. The only person you need to impress is yourself ! I stopped caring what people think of me a long time ago, as long as I am true to myself, to my values and honest, i can sleep on both ears. And that should be the goal …! F*Ck all those beauty standards telling you how you should look to be beautiful.

I believe the most important part is self love. I know this word has been thrown around so many times it almost lost all meaning. I’m not talking about empty intellectual masturbation. I’m talking about digging deep inside yourself, embracing your defaults as well as your qualities, work on what you don’t like but stop hating yourself for it. We are only tolerant and compassionate with others as we accept ourselves. How can you recognize somebody else’s pain when you can’t face your own?
The journey can be long and very difficult but once you master your mind you master your life.

I know my journey has just begun and I am enjoying every day, every moment that is leading me towards a more peaceful life. Harmony is the key, you only hate others when you hate yourself, because anger is a self violation that you inflict to your own being. Free yourself.

Don’t give up, if being a good person was easy, we would already live in utopia. Make the world a better place by making peace with yourself first.

Love

Your Red
