But I get how powerful we as humans are and how resilient we can be. And this world can be dark at times, other people can have your back at times but it's important to be strong enough to overcome things alone. A lot of people aren't aware, empathetic, or exist in a higher conscious state. I don't subscribe to the new age beliefs I once did about seeing the good in everyone. That stems from putting others before myself. My goal now is to be strong enough to stand toe to toe with the negative people of this world and come out on top. People can and will mess with you if they think they can, so at this point in my life I think I'm better off making those manipulative people think twice about that. I think being raised to be overly nice to people has made me a target. No more of that, I'm not holding back anymore for the sake of being a "nicer" person.
Thanks for the reminder, Mat. something I still struggle with these days. We gotta know how to protect ourselves.
