Breaking the island mentality
<p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p>I know I can’t be the only one who feels this way. There’s gotta be someone out there who’s in the same boat as I am. It’s not pride — at least, I wouldn’t call it that. It’s more of a deep sense of self-reliance.</p><p><br/></p><p>I know I can’t do it all by myself, but asking for help? That’s hard. Maybe it’s not pride. Maybe it’s the fear of being let down — again. When you’ve been disappointed too many times, you start convincing yourself it’s safer to do it all alone. After all, you can’t be disappointed if you don’t “appoint” anyone, right?</p><p><br/></p><p>But deep down, I know this isn’t the way it should be. No man is an island. (Women included — don’t come for me 😅). The truth is, we’re all meant to depend on each other, in some way or another.</p><p><br/></p><p>That sense of “I don’t need anyone” — yeah, it feels like strength, but if we’re honest, it’s a quiet kind of pride. And that pride builds walls. It keeps us isolated even when we don’t want to be.</p><p><br/></p><p>So here’s the hard part: we have to fight it. We have to learn to trust again — not just in others, but in the idea that we’re worthy of support. Because we’re not islands. We never were.</p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p><p><br/></p>
