To being a human!πΈ
Hey hey lovely people coming across, I hope you're doing well. π
Came across a really cool something recently and it poked my braincells a little so here I am, sharing with you too! Sharing is caring, right-oo?!π₯°
"Life is too short to be scared of being a human"
It is true!
I feel, the bottomline for the majority of our struggles and worries is being afraid to be a human. (Uber amazing if you think that's not the case for you, how does it feel to be the Universe's favorite lol!π₯°)
Okay, so what could go wrong, if we aren't being human?
We could be lacking perfection.
We could be mediocre at something.
We could be feeling broken, hurt, lost, confused, stuck, angry, monotonous, frustrated, disappointed and every x emotion you can think of!
But that's the thing, being human is being imperfect. Being human is not being the best always or at everything. Being human is having emotions.
Having emotions doesn't make you a bad person ever. You're hurting and there's a lot of sadness engulfing you, but that's the most human thing about you, that you feel hurt, that you feel sadness, that you *feel*.
And the bravest thing? You allow yourself to feel. You allow yourself to be a human.
I don't think there's anything more validating than to be a human, and to remind yourself often that you are, and you're worthy, and you're allowed to be just *you*.
Next time you miss out on nailing something, maybe take a moment to acknowledge that it's okay to miss out, you're still nailing at being a human, and it does count, even if you aren't able to see/ acknowledge it at the time! π
Being a human isn't a limitation, it's a possibility, its an opportunity to try each time afresh at being human.
I feel, *human* is like the coolest "rookie" tag lol, made mistakes? It's okay, you tried, that counts, you learned something, that counts, wanna make it count more? Give it another shot keeping the learning in mind.
You're going to have all kinds of days, feel all kinds of emotions, and maybe sometimes no emotions when it gets too overwhelming, even then, especially then, acknowledge the human in you, allow the human in you, validate the human in you, appreciate the human in you! π
The essence of your "being" isn't in what you do, the essence of your being is *you*.
Towards embracing, acknowledging, accepting, valuing and loving the human in us! π
Before I embraced my inner child, I always an apathetic human that I canβt feel much, that made me wonder am I even a human? Why it feels like Iβm broken somewhere? My amygdala isnβt developed well?
But now I could cry on even smallest thing and I like it. I like feeling things, regardless good or bad. At least I know Iβm a normal human, I can feel emotions.
If anyone says they wish they canβt feel anything, actually being robot isnβt really fun. I donβt wish that for anyone.
@Linognathus
Yay! I'm so proud of myself when I cry. Some people think I'm nuts. "Isn't it sad to cry?" Well, yes, but its OK to be sad sometimes. And it's even sadder to not be able to process or release it.
Enjoy your crying. π
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Very nice thread Sun! πΈ

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Just became a forum supporter so we probably will meet often π π
..... I was wondering who's Silπ€...then I realized it's me lol π
See you around!
@MeaningfulSilence
Hahaha aww I tried coming up with a nickname xD from the username, what do you prefer to be called here?π
And yayy for becoming a forum supporter, we'll certainly bump around often, carry pizza with you!π
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Sure, it's good to shorten my listener name with a nickname, Silence sounds good, plus i like quiet places in nature areas and at night!
Here you are a slice of pizza, homemade, it's for today's dinner so I share it virtually but it's also real! π
@MeaningfulSilence
I must say, your username is quite amazing indeed!
I feel, silence is definitely powerful and incredibly meaningful, you've got to have a good sense of "hearing" to make sense of silence.
Alrighty, Silence it is for you then hehe, I love nature and the quiet nights offer too. Thanks for sharing that! β¨
Awww home made pizzaa! That's sooo nice of you to share, and woah, what a coincidence! xD *noms happily* π₯°

@trueconfidant123 TC, you know @suni too???? :) Yay!
I love your teddy hug here and thought you should know. I guess I maybe do not know Suni super super well, but enough! to know she is great! (which you know too :)
On behalf of one 7cups friend and in meeting another, thanks for the encouragement and support you've shown even just here at this thread for our friend @Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Hugs to y'all! <3 BooksHugs
@BooksHugsandTea6370
Yess! Hugs to you too π€
Like I tell my family. Sometimes they explode with negative energy. I say, thanks for sharing your frustrations with me. Keeping it all to yourself is never good. Everyone in this living space is a good person no matter the struggling moments we all have similarly or different. We are all human after all from the title of this thread. There is nothing wrong with that. We are all raised differently along with challenges we deal with.
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
Aww sunn this is soo pawsome post!!! Thank you so much for sharing π. I so love this quote "The essence of your "being" isn't in what you do, the essence of your being is *you*." Being human must be amazing if they accepted the awesome human bean they are i think. But sometimes it's so hard to accept ourselves with mistakes we do and harder to love and care about ourselves like we do for others. We being mean to ourselves more than anyone else that time. Is it all happening because we forget being human doesn't mean being *perfect* ? . Thanks again sunnn, keep shininggg! ππ
@Depressedsoul24
Hey hey lovely soul, happy to see your beautiful comment here.π
Thank youuu so much for reflecting on it and appreciating hehe. Yesss, sometimes hoomans forget they are hoomans and that includes being imperfect.
You said it so perfectly, most of us are harder on ourselves than others when it comes to mistakes and expectations of being perfect always, super necessary to incorporate self compassion and some self kindness in our to-do list haha! (':
*you* are a wonderful hooman. Shining with youu! π
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou Itβs all in the username:)
No, but seriously I agree with you. Thank you for everything youβve done.
