I've always been careful that my actions shouldn't hurt anyone, even if they hurt me. I've always made sure I should never make any selfish decisions that could ruin another person's peace. And in the end, I've always ended up getting hurt very badly. For once, if I had put myself first, I could've saved many sleepless nights and restless days. I've thought being selfish and taking decisions based on that is a cruel thing to do. So I've stayed honest with my conscience because it never let me be at peace. This was the biggest cruelty I've done to myself. In a world full of mere humans, don't try to be an angel; your wings will be burned. I think it's high time we stopped glorifying or romanticizing getting hurt for others. Putting yourself first is the kindest thing you can ever do. Enough of all the angelic drama. If you want to be an angel, then be one to yourself first. Period.
