just expect you.

be ok with yourself. like this meow.

 
imagine two people looking in their mirrors.

one, a normal villager, living in a small shack,
livelihood being a fisherman, farmer maybe.
surrounded by family members every day.

the other, a high-flying worker, living a
luxurious life in the big city, surrounded by
fancy friends, houses, cars, all sorts of things.

now, who do you think is happier?

if you think of the initial possibilities,
it could be the villager, because of the person
being close with family and loved ones daily.
but it could also be the city worker right?
because the person seems to be successful.

but then again, maybe both of them are unhappy.
one might struggle to support the family, and the
other might only have possessions but not love.

but then again, BOTH of them might be happy.
because they both might be living the lives that
they always dreamt about, and have worked for.

my point is, we shouldn't care if one is happier
than the other. the thing we should be looking at
and hoping for, is that both of them are happy.

secondly, this is the danger of living your life
based on other peoples' expectations and opinions.
who cares if both of them doesn't fit in OUR
idea of what success and happiness SHOULD be.
as long as they are happy, that's all that matters.

so now i turn to you.

when you look in the mirror, you shouldn't be
expecting to see someone who is unhappy because
you haven't met other peoples' expectations, but
you should be expecting to see someone who is
honest to oneself, and who is perfectly ok with it.

just expect you.

now THAT, is something we'll both be happy about.
