Reflection

At some points, I was hesitant to make goals or plans for 2024. Well, that's because since 2020, life has been so full of despair and misunderstanding. It's been lots of ups and downs simultaneously and I was kinda tired. But here are some reflections that might be helpful for me in this year:

1. People come and go. Trust me, it always like this. It's not that I didn't trust anyone but 2023 made me realize that relationship (either with male or female) has its own expire date. Expecting them to be with you forever was a big mistake. Well but you know, even though people come and go, it's always 1+ 0 = 1, means with or without them, you are enough. Your best companion is yourself.

2. When you want to do something good, do it with a right motivation. No matter what the result is, there will always be one or two people who will mistake it as a wrongdoing, and it is okay. Still, you have to do something good for you and for other people.

3. Find your own happiness. Remember that when you cling your happiness from someone else, you will be disappointed. Happiness come from within yourself and you don't need to seek it from other people. Well, I know that there are some people who are truly care about you and your wellbeing but remember that happiness must be coming from yourself not from other people.

4. You have no time on seeking for validation because you are already great as the way you are. You will always be loved, by God, by you and by people who are truly care about you.

5. Don't forget to take an enough rest. You should be responsible for your own health and well being mentally and physically because you need to keep on living. Not for other people but for yourself. You know, you are no longer on the period where you need to struggle on getting people's attention anymore. The validation is coming to you without you need to work very hard on it. So, have an enough rest, love yourself, use your me time well, no need to fulfill other people needs anymore, help them when you really have free time not because you are afraid of losing them but because you really want to help them.

6. love yourself.

7. be happy.

Good luck 2024!
