We Are #MightyTogether

One of the hardest lessons I had to learn during my recovery was that not everyone deserves access to my peace.

For years, I gave other people the power to determine how I felt.

A rude comment could ruin my day.

Someone else's anger could become my anxiety.

Someone else's negativity could become my burden.

But eventually I realized something:

Protecting your peace isn't selfish.

It's necessary.

You don't have to attend every argument you're invited to.

You don't have to prove your worth to people who refuse to see it.

And you don't have to sacrifice your mental health trying to change people who don't want to change.

Your energy is limited.

Spend it on healing.

Spend it on growth.

Spend it on building a life you actually enjoy.

Protect your peace.

What’s something you’ve learned to protect your peace from?
