Dear people who are always available for everyone,
Please learn to disappear sometimes.
You don't have to answer every call.
You don't have to explain yourself every time.
You don't have to be present at every gathering, solve every problem, or carry everybody's burden just because you have a good heart.
Some people have become so comfortable with your availability that they no longer appreciate your presence. They only notice you when they need something.
Learn to have boundaries.
You can love people without allowing them to drain you.
You can care about someone without becoming responsible for their entire life.
You can say βnoβ without feeling guilty.
You can walk away from situations that constantly disturb your peace without being a bad person.
And please understand this: being needed is not the same as being valued.
Sometimes, you need to step back not because you hate anyone, but because you need to hear yourself again.
Stop exhausting yourself trying to prove that you care.
Protect your peace. Protect your time. Protect your energy.
Because one day, you may realize that while you were busy being everything to everybody, you slowly became nothing to yourself.
