How to survive people.

Hito wa hito, jibun wa jibun =
"Others are others. I am myself"

Other people's moods,
choices and opinions belong to them.
You don't have to make them yours.

Something feels off?

You don't Always need to understand why.
Simply step away.

Not every conversation needs to keep going.

Music needs silence between the notes.
So do we.

Someone ignored you?

It's not a loss.

Their silence frees your attention for
something more precious.

Stop treating life as a race.

There isn't one finish line.
We only see where people are,
not how they got there.

Everyone is figuring it out
as they go...

You don't need to win every
argument.

Walking away isn't losing.
It's choosing yourself.

You won't be everyone's cup of tea.

And you were never meant to be.

A life lived for everyone's
approval wouldn't be yours.

You don't exist to make
life easy for everyone else.

You are allowed to be quiet,
to rest and to go offline.
