If you see yourself through others’ eyes,
You will never truly know yourself.
You won’t recognize your own strengths,
If someone criticizes you, you’ll feel hurt,
If someone praises you, you’ll feel temporarily satisfied.
That means you’ve handed over control of your life to others.
But you know who you truly are, don’t you?
Then why let anyone’s negative words affect you?
Keep doing your work with sincerity,
Find joy in what you do,
Live life stress-free and full of happiness.
How do others see me?
It depends on the lens they choose to look through!
From today, I will not be disheartened.
I will live my life to the fullest!
