“You need to learn to say no. Stand up for yourself.” -Patrick Star

As an adult, rewatching what we thought is just a cartoon for kids just makes thoughts like these matter even more in the world we live in. It is never wrong to say no. Sometimes we need another breath of fresh air before taking in the thought that we also need to take care of ourselves. It is never wrong to stand up for yourself. Maybe we need that extra push and learn about ourselves even more. It takes time, but we will get there. We will do it at our own paces.
