My resolution is a bit late, but waiting is better than never. I always reach out to my friends.
Let me say that first. I contact them and then wait for them to contact me back. I was watching a podcast about realizing your self-worth. It said that if someone repeatedly does not contact you back or stays away for two to three weeks before contacting you back, you are not important to their life.
That really hit home.
Because if they didn't respond to me, I would send another email, text, or Instagram message about something different, just to get a response. I wasn't trying to bug them. I was curious whether they were okay, whether their job or career was going well, whether they had a good Christmas or a good birthday—you know, friendship things. The podcast was all about where you expend your energy. 🔋
I realize that I wanted to go down the path of the same amount of energy to others—the others—on a regular basis. Energy for energy to make it even. To make it fair. You have to not hold a grudge; do it without anger. You have to do it as part of being a better person for yourself. You can't do it for spitefully. 🤬
To wrap it up it for my mental health and it's gonna be sad at times I want to reach out to that friend, are there friends. And if they choose not 2, reach out to me you know I will value friendship, add with them and just leaving that I always room. I remember it's a good memories and the good times. This Andy saying good night!
Want as hulle nie op my gereageer het nie, sou ek nog 'n e-pos, SMS of Instagram-boodskap oor iets anders stuur, net om 'n antwoord te kry. Ek het nie probeer om hulle te pla nie. Ek was nuuskierig of hulle oukei was, of hulle werk of loopbaan goed gaan, of hulle 'n goeie Kersfees of 'n goeie verjaarsdag gehad het—jy weet, vriendskapsdinge. Die podcast het gegaan oor waar jy jou energie bestee. 🔋
Ek besef dat ek die pad van dieselfde hoeveelheid energie na ander—die ander—op 'n gereelde basis wou gaan. Energie vir energie om dit gelyk te maak. Om dit regverdig te maak. Jy moet nie 'n wrok koester nie; doen dit sonder woede. Jy moet dit doen as deel van 'n beter mens vir jouself. Jy kan dit nie vir kwaadwillig doen nie. 🤬
Om dit af te sluit vir my geestesgesondheid en dit gaan soms hartseer wees wat ek na daardie vriend wil uitreik, is daar vriende. En as hulle nie 2 kies nie, reik na my, jy weet ek sal vriendskap waardeer, saam met hulle byvoeg en net dat ek altyd plek los. Ek onthou dis 'n goeie herinneringe en die goeie tye. Hierdie Andy sê goeie nag!
