Before being merciful to others... don't forget to be merciful to yourself.💕
Many people are taught to be good.
To sacrifice.
To be patient.
Always understand others.
Until one day...
We forgot to ask ourselves
"Can we do it?"
We try to forgive those who hurt.
But never forgive yourself.
We comfort everyone.
But let your own heart break quietly.
A kindness that doesn't extend to itself.
Not goodness.
But it is self-harm in the name of goodness.
Self-mercy
Not selfishness.
But is to accept that
We are human.
Have a weak day
Have a tired day
And have a day that needs a break.
If we still force to smile, even if the heart cries
If we still forgive the wound, it's still fresh.
If we still help others even though we are sinking
That mercy...
Could become a burden, not a power.
Be merciful to yourself first.
Dare to say, "No."
Dare to retreat from what hurts the heart
Dare to love yourself. Even no one understands.
Because of true mercy.
Must start with a heart that is not neglected.
And when we take good enough care of ourselves,
The kindness we give to others.
Will come out of willingness
Not a compulsion.
Before embracing the whole world.
Don't forget to embrace yourself first.
