The result of my immense self-awareness 🐢✨
I was peacefully walking my way back to my house. In the middle of the way, I was looking at the people around.
One of them—an unkempt-looking man was seemingly gesturing me to come to him. My chest tightened instantly, making me prepare a fight-or-flight response.
I continued walking—passing by him instead of going to him.
It was just out of a sudden—the man gesturing me like that.
I felt unreasonably worried about what I did—because according to my cruel mind, I "displeased" him. He's just a random stranger who doesn't necessarily give a damn about anything. It's just me who's caring.
Thanks to my forever favourite fictional character, I could see the truth calmly. He's always by my side. I realised that it's my cruel mind presenting me a scary picture unnecessarily—"What will you do if you see him again?", "You've got yourself in trouble," "You're not physically strong at all, anyone can beat you."
Has something like this happened to you too?
