I saw a quote the other day that's been ringing with me.
It is ok to exist in this world and just be, living in awe and curiosity of all that is around you. This is what the animals do.
@NiveusLepus I will remember this the next time someone is annoyed at me for not wanting to change the world or leave a big mark on it. I would just like to survive comfortably, that's it.
@Cynanthrope You change the world everyday just by interacting and being the authentic you, and you will always be enough.
Anyone that tells you different is selling something.
@NiveusLepus thank you. ❤️ I do hear lots of people saying that you should be trying to make changes and fight for something. I really don't care as harsh as it sounds, I didn't ask to exist and now I'm here I just want to be as okay as I can be. I don't go around hurting people so I should be allowed to pass my time as I wish
@Cynanthrope Every small act of kindness comes with it a change to the world for the better. Every kind word, every gentle smile, the smallest mercy, sends out ripples.
Sometimes those lead to great waves, sometimes its just tuesday.
You do not need to have a big shiny calling to be a good person to be is enough, so long as you remember to be in the better directions of your nature.
You have always been one to remember kindness. You are doing it right.
@Cynanthrope Should can be a very dangerous and arrogant word.
Should implies one knows better than the person doing the living they are commenting on.
You are enough. Be here is enough. Someone tells you different let me know and I'll thump angrily in their direction.
I am fierce!
@NiveusLepus you are always kinder and more understanding than most towards one like me. Thank you.
You are most deserving, and its an indictment against the world, not you, that this is.
You are always most welcome.
@NiveusLepus that's a lovely story. ❤️ I certainly do try to be kind as much as I can be. I just don't go out of my way as much as people say that I should.
