My Truths

From today onwards, I have the right to write my own life
I don’t want my future to be shaped by the opinions of others anymore
 I will reject anything I don’t want 
and I refuse to be gaslit as I have been before
I hate prejudice and injustice 
and refuse to sacrifice my needs for others 
who wouldn’t give anything in return
 I have the right to be happy
I have the right to get what I want 
I have the right to make the people I love happy
and I will pursue this mindset forever
In my life, I am the director
the main actor
and from now on, the scriptwriter
I won’t let others change my fate, I will be me, and I will be free!
