it kills me inside when i try to act cold just to protect myself, knowing that i have the sweetest soul you'll ever meet.
@JaYunnaMonae you can be kind without being vulnerable you can be modest while being confident you can be considerate while being careful life ain’t black & white
@JaYunnaMonae breaks me every single time cause that's not me..we both know 😫😭
@JaYunnaMonae Just tell ‘em you deserve the way I treat you you not worth more.
Putting up that tough exterior to guard yourself, I know that move. Inside, you're soft and sweet, but you feel like you've got to ice over just to make it through. It's like every time you let your guard down in the past, the world didn't miss a beat to remind you why you built those walls. It's a real drag, feeling like you've got to hide the best parts of you just to keep from getting hurt. But then, when you're all closed off, it's like you're not even being the real you. There's this awesome, kind person in there, but you're stifling them, keeping them under wraps because the world's a tough place, and people can be harsh. It's this weird balancing act, trying to protect yourself while also aching to just be yourself – to laugh freely, to offer a kind word, to be the person you know you are deep down. It's exhausting, right? Constantly trying to seem tougher, colder, like nothing touches you. But deep down, you know that's not who you are. You're someone who cares, maybe too much sometimes. And that's not a weakness; it's a strength. It takes guts to be kind in a world that can be so unkind. Maybe the trick is finding the right people, the ones who make you feel safe enough to let down your guard. Or maybe it's about learning to be okay with being a little vulnerable, even if it means risking getting hurt now and then. Because that sweet soul of yours? It's worth more than any armor you could put up. And the people worth knowing, the ones who truly matter, they'll see that, and they'll love you all the more for it. Keep that chin up. It's okay to be soft in a hard world!!
@JaYunnaMonae Me too. I've been avoiding users and abusers lately and I gat my peace but sometimes it feels like I'm mean but I maintain my boundaries still and use the grey rocks too. I've been overused by ingrates.
