Stronger Together

“Don’t let anybody know what you’re going through”, “Keep everything to yourself”, “You are strong and independent”. I honestly believe that these statements are designed to just make an already trying existence even more trying.

The truth is that no one is meant to go through life alone because nobody is an island.

Everyone needs a community. From time to time you need help from others and it’s perfectly normal. You’re surrounded by people for a reason, let them in, and stop isolating yourself so much.

Allow yourself to be loved, share your troubles, and lean on the shoulders that are constantly there waiting to be leant on. It doesn’t make you weak, it doesn’t make you any less independent.

Remember, it is easy to break a broomstick, but not the whole bundle because we are stronger together.

All my love,
