medemedemed: “If you cannot find peace within yourself, you will never find it anywhere else” • This has never felt more accurate after the year we’ve had. I’ve always been an introvert (or an ambivert at most) and have always found peace in hanging out alone, but I also do love going out and spending time with others, which has been missing a lot in 2020. I’ve learned this year more than ever how important it is to be comfortable with ourselves and to be our own best friend, and how prioritizing ourselves is not selfish. I’ve learned to say “no” and “I’m not comfortable with that”, especially in the times we live in. I’ve learned not to depend on others, and that our friends and family should not complete us but instead should complement us; that we should be whole beings, and a solid foundation on which we can build stronger relationships. That’s a state of mind I hope to bring into 2021, no matter who I’ll be able to see in person or which new people I’ll meet along the way. From my studygram -- source link
