One thing I learn being adult is........
DISCONNECTING
Being alone is ok
Avoiding negative people is not bad
Unfriend and Block unwanted persons is fair
Reduce number of friends is good
Distancing from other is acceptable
Hiding from the chaotic and brutal world
Fighting your own battlefield without the help of others
Leaving an unhealthy relationships
Stops following and chasing others
Having a small circle of friend rather than a big one
Choosing peaceful place rather than a busy street light
Choosing different path from the others
Spending less time with friends and family
Willing to stay quiet and let other people just be
Laughing my own mistake
Other people find it not good and offensive but that's ok.
If that's what you think so, then let it be
but for me, it is a BIG STEP
It is my way of PROTECTING MYSELF.
Only the day before yesterday, I told myself,
โI need to slow down.
I need to take a break from all the interactions.
I need to be quiet,
I need to clear my mind
I need to pay attention.
I need to close off from the world for a little bit.
I need kindness, and comfort.
If it's not coming from the outside,
I need to find it on the inside.
But for that I need to slow down.
And soften my body.
Disconnection in this situation serves as my self-protection mechanism, and my way of finding peace.
