I Changed My Mind

A change is necessary to improve my current mental health.

No circumstance is fixed in this life. Every living thing constantly evolves and grows.

Changes in lives, positively or negatively should be celebrated and acknowledged. The brave ones move forward, leaving behind their life mistakes and taking it as a lesson learnt. The less courageous ones keep on arguing about their losses until the world ends, living a ‘dead’ life by standing in the same spot until the real death comes.

I am the brave one.

I have regrets and guilt, I take the consideration of the respective others too and I believe any relationship that started from the wrong side would never prosper. “The continuous talk aka promises aka BS with no ACTION” burned me out. It was like talking in front of the mirror bla bla bla but in the end, it was just empty words. The lying, the cheating, the manipulation, the selfishness, the ignorance, the egos and other toxic traits are the ‘poison’ in any relationship or friendship.

I heal with time.

I hike, I run, I swim, I sleep and I enjoy living my life in the present.

While on my morning run, I was listening to this podcast by DOAC with Simon Sinek. For some reason, their discussion seemed relatable to me. We need the right skills to overcome our communication struggles with others. Sharing it here for y’all to listen to this.

Honesty and loyalty are the basic rules of any great relationship.

Rather than arguing about the right and the wrong, I prefer to protect my mental health and walk away from the scene. You can’t win over an argument with someone who refuses to LISTEN and negotiate. I agree with Simon Sinek that a great relationship is based on this 3-plus list:

  • Intellectual compatibility
  • Emotional compatibility
  • Sexual compatibility
  • and the plus 1 is the circumstances like location, timing etc

I am looking for a companion and not a human MASTER.

Please allow me to be a happy, contended and intelligent human being. Allow me to mourn my loss, mistakes, downtime, and not-so-glory self without your pre-judgmental perception.

Just sit in the mud with me.

Thank you very much for listening.

Cheers

MM
