Have you ever noticed that the things that people say always stick with us?
We’d remember them as clear as a bright blue sky. And the people who’d said it too.
But sometimes, just those words. Subtle, but lying there in the subconscious.
And perhaps our actions, words and feelings change based on it. We become kinder, consider another’s feelings, spread a smile, avoid something just to not cause pain. Learn to make the right decision because of an intelligent word and how to be braver.
But there are other changes too.
We become afraid, shy, lose our confidence. Our train of thoughts get interrupted, forming a mental block. We’d remember those words and somehow it would affect our actions. We’d want to be less happier, afraid it wouldn’t last. Or be less confident to avoid being a big-head. Avoid our passions for fear of being the odd one.
And we’d try to become “normal”. So that we wouldn’t have to hear those words again.
That the only words you remember are those of love and warmth. Of appreciation and courage and strength. And that the words that cause you hurt get overpowered by these. That you only take the good from that. That you’re surrounded by people who’d encourage you. Encourage you to do the right things (for that is important). And I hope their words ring loud and clear when you need them. Because you deserve to have your own thoughts, words and actions. Beautiful and unique as you are. And the world needs you. At least someone does.
I hope you hear whispers of cheer. Of warmth. And of love.
