Who Gives a F*** What You Do.
If you find yourself struggling a little bit to find your happiness, that could be related to the fact that you are not allowing yourself to live your own life. You may be too worried about what other people are doing with their lives or what they’re thinking about yours.
I’ll tell you right now you need to take back your life. It doesn’t matter what everyone else thinks about anything. Everyone has something they’re worried about, and it’s not you. That thought alone should help you move forward. A harsh truth I’ve heard is, “No one really cares what you’re doing with your life.”
And it’s true. Nobody cares because everyone is dealing with their own life.
But from my experience, nothing sucks more than the thought of people always watching your every move to make sure you are doing trends or any part of life right. There is no right way to live life, though. Probably, there will never be.
And that’s the reason you should do whatever you want to do. Stop living your life in fear of what other people will think. At the end of the day, it’s your life. Shouldn’t it matter whether what you do with your life makes you feel happy? Grateful? Proud?
It is completely up to you, no one else.
For example, if you want to dance in front of your favorite ice cream shop just because, hey, you go for it! Do it because it makes you happy. The happier you are, the freer you feel. Feeling content and free combined gives you the power of control over your life.
Yesterday, I had a date with my boyfriend at this amazing restaurant. (True food Kitchen in Broadway Plaza, CA, for anyone wondering.) And for me, my happiness involves not giving a f*** what anyone thinks when I'm laughing my literal brains out. Sometimes my laugh comes out more funny than the joke. And sometimes, it sounds like a bird is laughing. This is just to say my laugh always sounds different. Honestly, when I’m having a good time, punching the table while laughing, I don’t care about anything else.
Laughing is the one thing that can turn our mood around in an instant. It definitely does for me.
So, even with all the weird looks and gazes in my direction, I’ll still laugh as loud and crazy as I want because nothing can ruin how I feel at that moment. I’m far too happy to let anything interrupt it.
You should do the same with your life.
Wear your favorite outfit because you love it, not because you think everyone else will. Get the job you want because you feel fulfilled working there, not because everyone will see your success and congratulate you.
You shouldn’t tiptoe through life always wondering whether people will like you or what you do. That’s an unhealthy way to live. Speaking from experience, it’s a draining process to be constantly wondering what others are thinking. It takes a toll on your body and mind. You tire yourself out trying to meet everyone's expectations.
Again, it doesn’t matter what anybody else thinks. It’s your life.
Romanticize it as much as you want. Get in touch with your personality. Dress the way you want to dress. Act the way you want to act. Embody whatever aura you want to embody. Treat life as if it’s in the palm of your hands. And you pull all the strings. Sometimes my metaphors and analogies are too over the place, but I hope you get what I’m saying.
Your life matters because YOU make it matter. Walk around with your head held high knowing you do things your way for nobody else. Once you realize it's you who determines your happiness, nobody else will ever knock it down.
I hope you have a wonderful day today :)
