You are not your anger. You are not your pain.
They’re visitors, not who you are.

When you’re angry or in pain, it feels like those emotions are you.

You say, I am angry. I am hurting.

But what if you could step back and simply watch the anger, observe the pain, without becoming it?

The moment you separate yourself from what you feel, you begin to take your power back.

You realize that anger and pain are passing states, not your identity.

Try this next time a wave hits you:

Pause.

Breathe.

Notice the feeling as something happening in you, not something you are.

That’s the first step to peace of mind — awareness of mind.

What emotion have you been identifying with lately?

Also, if you're going through a tough time right now, I want you to know that I post daily mental health videos about how to deal with painful thoughts.

Have you ever been to an amusement park before, like Six Flags, and if so did you like it? Why or why not?

I went to Six Flags St. Louis years ago and was on there with my Aunt and was praying that it would stop soon. I had just eaten a chili dog, not knowing how fast this ride would drop me, but I held it down though... I had a fear that we would fly off the track, but that was years before amusement parks had all the malfunctions like nowadays. My aunt is no longer with me, she died of cancer many years ago.. #CPTSD #PTSD #MentalHealth #Anxiety #Depression #Trauma #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder

The world’s opinions change every day. Your value doesn’t.

So much of your energy gets spent trying to earn someone else’s approval.
You shape your choices, your words, even your dreams around how others might perceive them.

But stop for a moment and ask yourself:
What difference does their approval or disapproval truly make to who you are?

Their opinions shift like the wind and they only see you through the lens of their own fears, expectations, and insecurities. None of that changes your worth.

The peace you’re looking for begins the moment you stop trying to be understood by everyone, and instead, understand yourself.

You don’t need permission to be who you already are.

How much of your life has been shaped by trying to please others?
