I don’t need your approval to be OK and you don’t need mine. I - TopicsExpress



          

I don’t need your approval to be OK and you don’t need mine. I don’t need your love and devotion to be happy and you don’t need mine. It took me two different therapists and several years to finally take back my power and accept that certain family members, friends, coworkers and colleagues would never accept or approve of me. Never. When I finally tired of holding myself back I let go of trying to win others over. I let go of trying to fit in. I let go of trying to be someone I was not. I let go of needing what I so desperately wanted—their validation. I’ve since picked up the shattered pieces of my heart and soul and have accepted that some people will never love and accept me. Never. I’m perfectly fine with it. There are over seven billion people in the world. There are plenty of people who love me and always will. There are people I haven’t met yet that will be crazy about me! If you’re tired of beating your head against the wall, if you’re tired of trying to be someone you’re not, then it’s time to let go of seeking validation from others. It’s time to be exactly who you choose to be. That’s freedom! credit to theboldlife
