I'm one, are you too?

I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too.
Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you. ~Frida Kahlo

Have you ever read her novel?

A natural linguist, became proficient in Bengali, English, French and Sanskrit during her short life span.

She left two novels, Le Journal de Mademoiselle drivers (published posthumously in 1879), the first novel in French by an Indian writer, and Bianca (thought to be the first novel in English by an Indian woman writer), in addition to an unfinished volume of original poems in English and Sanskrit translations.

She did not anglicise her ideas but kept close to the ethical values of the original tales. At the same time, her understanding of modern life and dedication to craft helped her to make them more relevant to posterity while leaving behind an impressive collection of poetry.

Don't cage yourself. You got to read this

I've come to realize that some people are not worthy enough to cry for. Some people doesn't deserve even just a single drop of my tears. It doesn't mean they're worthless, but I just know now that if I invest too much time for the wrong people, my time will just be wasted. Now I know where my place is, and that is away from people who failed to see my worth.

Not all people you love can love you back. Not all people you respect can respect you too. You cannot expect all people to care for you as well as you can't make them want you. And sometimes, some people just can't stop hurting you. So I've realized that even if I try tearing myself down, they will never come to fix me. Self-destruction won't change them. Hating myself won't make them love me. Not taking care of myself won't make them care for me. I can't change them, so I am bound to change myself to become better than the person that they tried to mistreat and took for granted.

I realized that some people are not worth begging to stay. Some people are not worth chasing to come back. Some people are not worth fighting for. Most of them have received everything from me but I never knew that they don't even deserve anything from me. Some people deserve to be treated well but not worthy to be loved. Some people deserve forgiveness but not worth giving another chance. Some people deserve acceptance but not worthy to be kept.

Some people are worth letting go. And that, my Darling, is worth moving on.
