Eight ways to protect your heart on a day when tears won't stop

If you want to cry, you can cry.

But at the end of those tears, I want to be able to stand up properly.

The more days my heart is about to break,

You need "habits" to protect yourself.

There is no need to be strong or fit around.

The important thing is,

Being able to return to being able to face forward again.

These eight, uh,

When I hit rock bottom, I was truly saved by "the way the mind handles."

Even on a night full of tears,

I hope it reaches people who don't want to give up on the future.

- - - -

🔁 not someday, but to "people who want to change from today"

... Read more涙が止まらない日には、自分の心をいたわることが何より大切です。私もかつて、理不尽な言葉や人間関係に悩み、どうしても心が折れてしまいそうになった経験があります。そんな時に私が意識したのは、無理に周りに合わせず「自分を守る」ことでした。 例えば、無理して合わない人に無理に寄り添わず、少し距離を置くことで心が軽くなることがあります。また、理不尽な言葉が飛んできたときは、心の中で「知らんがな」と流すようにしたことで傷つき方がずいぶん減りました。迷った時は、「自分が好きな方の選択」を基準に決めると後悔が少なくなりました。 日々の中で「ありがとう」と感謝の言葉を意識して大切な人に伝えることも、自分の幸福感を高める良い習慣です。悩んだら信頼できる話し相手に話すことで、頭の中が整理され気持ちが楽になる経験も多いです。そして、新しい挑戦に対して不安が募る時は、「どうせうまくいく」と自分に言い聞かせるだけで、心が軽くなり一歩踏み出せることがありました。 このような小さな心の習慣は、強くいることではなく、落ち込んでもまた立ち上がろうとする力を育てます。忘れないでほしいのは、涙が出る日があってもそれは決して弱さではないということ。心を守るための優しい習慣を少しずつ続けていけば、心は確実に軽くなり、また前向きに歩んでいけるのです。
