Limitless

We are not limitless ladies and gents. It's a hard truth we have to accept as adults.

The truth is, sometimes, the only thing you can do is control yourself in the moment. You can give your full self into something, do your very best even, and whether or not people accept your efforts is not up to you.

So, if you're like me, this can be really hard sometimes. I am driven to please others. I really want to be happy, and I want others to be happy. Well, I cannot control how someone reacts to what I give out into the world. What do I do, to maintain my happiness then? I work as hard as I can for me. And I know my limits.

You should try your hardest in life. You should consider why other people are the way they are... But you need to remember your limits.







In friendships, for instance, it should be a two way street. If you give and give and give and often find yourself wondering why it's so one sided and often find yourself hurt by this, where do you draw the line? You cannot make someone like you. You cannot make someone care for you the same you care for them. If you are finding that you are this situation, I ask you to consider the situation. Why are you putting so much effort into something you are not happy with? Focus on you and your happiness, and the person may come calling. If they don't... Well what does that say? There are people who care about you, sometimes you just have to kiss some friend frogs.



In relationships, it's the same thing. Don't spend your life fighting. Don't spend it struggling to get what you think you deserve. Be kind, be understanding of the person you love, and hold those same standards for yourself.

An easy way to tell if you have crossed your limits: If you feel worthless, weak, wrong, like a failure, that no one can help you, that no one understand or cares for you

You are far past your limits... You are worthy of love and understanding but you just may be in the wrong place to receive it. Don't give up on yourself.



I have recently reached my limits, which is weird for me because I am extremely resilient. I've realized though, that being limited does not mean being weak or wrong or a failure. It does not mean I am not resilient. It means that I am human. It means recognizing what the healthiest course for my life may be.


For everything in your life: friends, family, coworkers, loved ones... It's important to recognize your worth, and how much you're willing to take for the sake of your own happiness. We only have one life to live... Live it happy. Live it healthy.
