I'm torn.
Torn between what I want and what I need.
The conflict tears me apart.
It makes my heart hurt, I'm constantly in pain.
It would seem easy to make decisions that protect ourselves.
Realistically, it's not.
Even when we want to put ourselves first, we don't.
What stops us?
Maybe it's because we're in pain, and we don't want anyone to feel how we do.
Maybe it's because we got used to the pain, and somehow it brings us comfort.
But to find comfort in pain, because it's our pain, a pain we already know, it's destructive.
Making decisions for yourself shouldn't leave you torn.
It's okay to be selfish sometimes.
You can't live your whole life torn.
Torn between what makes you happy and what makes you comfortable.
Make the hard decisions and put yourself first.
