The Power of Humility

We are all afraid of being alone; it’s normal. But the only thing is to not settle for something because of this fear. Fear can cause us to become desperate and make wrong choices.
Often heard the Loreal quote and thought “yea right?”. How often do we go into our mind and think of all the random reasons why we might not be thaaaat worth it. But there are sooo many reasons why we are truly worth it! Isn’t it?
Somewhere, most of us believe that our value in a relationship is when we can make our people happy. that we need to be their shoulder to cry on or laugh on. But when this becomes a pattern for people to make you their emotional anchor, with no emotional boundaries that is when you need to start thinking.

Ending a relationship can most often be devastating and can play havoc on your emotional well being. But don’t give up. Here are a few things I learnt from my separation.
