I am a very family orientated person, and I try to support them in every way that I can but sometimes I am way too hard on myself and I always put others before myself, often to the point of exhaustion 💛

I'm trying not to think of myself pessimistically. I'm trying to come at peace with the fact that I'm human, I age, I can't be omniscient or achieve everything at once. It will help me feel at peace with myself.

@stormieandpaws

It's often difficult for adults to be open about their true feelings. I can only imagine how heavy it must have felt for you when you were a kid. I hope you can find the courage to trust and share how you really feel with others.

@amiablePeace77

What expectation are you currently trying to lower? 

If we’re talking about my own expectations, none of them. If we’re talking about expectations from others, all of them bc I don’t care about their expectations. 

How would it help to have a better life?

To continue living as my authentic self and as I want to live.
