Dear stranger,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I used to be just like you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I used to think that keeping the peace<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Meant letting everyone else disrupt mine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I used to sit quietly under the weight<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Of someone else\u2019s bad mood, walking on eggshells,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Telling myself that if I just held on a little longer,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If I was just sweeter, kinder, more available…<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They\u2019d finally see my value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They never did.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Because you can\u2019t make someone appreciate<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A price tag they never intended to pay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You can’t force someone to value a soul<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They only intended to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you do not understand your own worth,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
People will treat you like you’re disposable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They will step on you, unapologetically,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And walk away without a single backward glance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They will ruin your comfort,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Wreck your sleep,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And call it a compromise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But here is the hard truth we both need to hear,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The one that stings but saves:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nobody is entitled to fight for your worth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No one is going to act as your emotional bodyguard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There is no knight in shining armor coming to rescue you<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From the people you keep letting into your life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You have to stand up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You have to be the one to reclaim your space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This isn\u2019t about running away<\/p>\n\n\n\n
From every difficult conversation,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Or hiding away in isolation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s about standing your ground<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And drawing a line in the sand<\/p>\n\n\n\n
With permanent marker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s about creating boundaries that say,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“I love you, but I love me more.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It takes a personal initiative<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To stop the self-pity cycle,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To look in the mirror and say, “No more.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stop thinking you deserve the worst things<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just because you\u2019ve gotten used to the taste of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stop romanticizing your suffering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Being broken wasn’t your choice;<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The fractures were handed to you by careless hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But staying broken?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That\u2019s a daily decision you make<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Every time you allow the disrespect to slide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choose to heal today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Choose to be fiercely selective<\/p>\n\n\n\n
About who gets access to your energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Add that tax to your value,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Stand tall in your own space,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And never offer a discount again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
