UNLEARNING
<p>Nobody warns you that growing up is mostly unlearning </p><p><br/></p><p>Unlearning silence</p><p>Unlearning the need to be understood by everyone </p><p>Unlearning the need to shrink so others can feel comfortable </p><p>Unlearning the idea that love must hurt to be real</p><p>Unlearning friendships where you always have to be the understanding one </p><p>Unlearning the idea that silence always means peace</p><p><br/></p><p>Unlearning the idea that being busy means you’re progressing</p><p>Unlearning the belief that rest is laziness</p><p>Unlearning the idea that older means wiser in every situation</p><p>Unlearning the belief that suffering is a requirement for success</p><p>Unlearning the idea that you must always explain your “no”</p><p>Unlearning the idea that a cheap item is fake and the costly one is original </p><p><br/></p><p>Nobody tells you how confusing it feels to question things you once accepted without thinking </p><p>But growth will always demand a version of you that is willing to let go.</p>
