No one owes you anything.
Not love.
Not happiness.
Not opportunity.
Not even understanding.
And that can feel unfair because sometimes you give your all, and life still pushes back.
You show up with a good heart, and still get overlooked.
You try your best, and it still doesn’t seem to be enough.
But here’s the unspoken truth:
You’re not entitled to anything but you’re capable of earning everything.
The love you crave? Build it within yourself first.
The happiness you chase? Create it in small, consistent moments.
The opportunity you dream of? Go out and fight for it , even if no one believes in you yet.
This world doesn’t hand out rewards for effort.
It gives them to those who keep going even when the applause is silent, and the doors stay shut.
So don’t wait for permission.
Don’t wait for perfect timing.
Don’t wait for the world to see your worth.
Go. Get. It.
Even if you have to start from nothing.
Even if no one claps.
Even if it’s hard especially when it’s hard.
You’re not entitled.
But you’re not powerless, either.
