How other people live their lives. The decisions they made, the choices the choose, the things they say and how they behave.

This is my family, people I care about and people I dont care too much for. When its the ones I love, you always try to “fix” things or make things better for them. You cant. You need to let them make their own choices.

When it comes to people I dont care too much for, their actions or how they carry themselves with things they do or say, frustrate me — but I cant change them. I cannot make them see something they dont want to see or are not interested in seeing.

The level of effort that goes to the loved ones is not fully appreciated, and the frustration for the other lot is energy wasted.

Decisions that I have made in the past that were not done in the best way. Those things are done now. Known to others or not — there is nothing that I can do to change any of them. All I can do is think twice about the decisions and choices I make today and tomorrow, and remember the lessons.

As we grow we make dum decisions. We have regrets. Yes they have helped shape us in some way and if we reflect we know the feeling of never wanting to do it again — alot of people say they have no regrets because its made them who they are today — truth, but lets be honest there are just some things you wish you didnt do. But they are done know — so its actually just wasted brain space thinking back to it all the time.

Things others have done, said and thought about me or my actions. The things that hurt, the things that I took personally. The discouragement, the rejection felt and anything that made me feel less than the person I know myself to be. When you hear things it is hard to not take things personally or be bummed out about them.

When it comes from your close ones it hits differently. The shit makes your stronger, but not before you hurt a little first. If your intentions were always good, then you cannot do much about how others receive that. If you done shit with some side agenda, then the hurt will hopefully make you better.

In the end, there are people who care for you out there and who will hold you accountable — but their opinions and observations do not trump your own. Take their views on board, and what has some truth then take it on, but what doesnt — let that fuckin shit go and tbh just dont tell them as much next time.

At the end of the day, all we can be is Bodly and Freely ourselves.

Fear will always fuck us up — that is all the above is, fear.
