Since childhood, I’ve often been seen as irresponsible or unsocial. Even those closest to me didn’t understand me, and that used to frustrate me deeply. For the longest time, I believed the challenge was to make others accept or understand me. But as I grew, I realized something far more profound:
The real challenge was learning to accept myself.

I was more frustrated by my own struggle to connect with people the way others seemed to do so easily.
So I began digging deeper, asking myself, Why don’t I enjoy socializing? And the answers started coming. I don’t judge people. But I also don’t enjoy gossip, negative talk, or shallow formalities. I’m not okay with letting others shake my dreams or dilute my purpose. Conversations, more often than not, felt like unsolicited advice or quick judgments, rarely true understanding. I’m not here for that. I won’t fake who I am.

Every day, I work on becoming a better version of myself. I have values I honor deeply. When someone doesn’t resonate with my frequency, I naturally distance myself. That might make me look “closed off.” But I know it’s just self-preservation.

I care deeply about others, I feel their pain and understand their struggles. But I also believe that people have their own journeys. I’m not here to offer opinions where they’re not asked. To me, real contribution is simply standing by someone in silence and saying: “Everything is going to be alright.”

If you can’t offer hope or support, I believe it’s kinder to stay quiet. People are already carrying enough, they don’t need the extra weight of your judgment.

I haven’t yet found someone who truly connects with me at a soul level. So for now, I keep my energy guarded. Not everyone is meant to be in your inner circle. And yes, maybe I am the “odd one out.”
But I’ve come to see that being different doesn’t mean being wrong. Doing what everyone else does isn’t the only way to be right.

Today, I know I’m unique—and I’m proud of that. I genuinely care about humanity, even if I don’t express it through typical social norms. I’ve learned to accept myself fully.

Have you truly accepted who you are, beyond others’ opinions or expectations?
