It is no one else's responsibility to fix you. It is my responsibility to work on myself, and your responsibility to work on your self. To see through the lies that ego tells us and the sad cycles it traps us within. It is no one else's job to love you back to wellness, to figure your shit out for you, or even to just hold you and make it all go away. Yes, maybe we need such tenderness and support from time to time as a break from the work of seeing ourself clearly. But the purpose of life, in my opinion, is to bloom and towards that end, to do the work of clearing out everything that's in the way of our personal growth process from unfolding.

I like the deepness in your topic of discussion that you had with your friend! We should not impose on others , thinking we can somehow fix them, if we fail to examine ourselves.
But we can be an example to others and bounce off one another
:]
Thanks for getting me thinking hard again :)

Don't be so hard on yourself
You are not an island
Let somebody hold the other half of the universe

Beautiful back picture miss / Sean King's beloved hahaha

Nice form. Totally agree that each one of us must stand alone individually and account for themselves in finding solutions to their problems . To find and pursue one's passions to eventually find happiness and inner peace. Love ones can give great support and guidance of course, but ultimately one must navigate through life with its challenges and problems and eventually find themselves and reach their true potential.

Very honest words, good reflection. Thanks for share it

I agree and disagree. It's your responsibility to change yourself, absolutely. However, that doesn't mean you can't get help. Sometimes helping yourself requires admitting that you others can help you and you are not alone in your problems. Seeking help is difficult, but it is often the first step to change. If you keep saying your going to do it all on your own and you don't need help from others that's one way of guarding yourself from what others can offer you. We all all in this together, don't ever think you are alone with your problems.

Lovely picture cheers

omg..you have an incredible ass :)

Wait, did someone say there is a mountain in this photo?

So true, you can't rely on ANYONE. Love yourself and put yourself first.

Nice picture too!

Nice Post.

That is great speech

I totally agree. Everyone is responsible for​ their own happiness. So don't follow everyone else's​ opinion but think for yourself and then do something which will improve you.

Beautiful words miss , but sometimes it is indeed important to just lay back and relax (occasionally )
