YOU ARE WHAT YOU TOLERATE
I've had read it somewhere here online that you are what you tolerate and it's a hard pill to swallow but it's true. Because all of things that happen to our lives are entirely up to us. How we want to be treated, to be viewed, to be seen or to be perceived.
There are many instances in life that applies to this phrase, like if you are constantly just being lazy about the things that you want in life it will not definitely come to you. If you tolerate disrespect, then you are likely to be disrespected. Imagine yourself in a relationship, there are many times that your partner had been showing a lot of red flags like hitting you or even cheating on you but you still stayed. In that situation, you are tolerating his behavior. You are allowing that person to constantly abuse and hurt you, not just physically but emotionally and mentally. Why? The answer is always because of that so called love. But let me ask you, do you love yourself enough to leave such relationship that gives you stress and pain? If the answer is no then you are really what you tolerate. It defines you, because it is what you wanted. If it is what you want then stop whining, it's your responsibility to get yourself out in that situation if you really love yourself. Always bear in mind to love yourself enough to the point that you don't just let anyone be part of your life and give you such treatment.
If you work on yourself and make efforts to be better than yesterday, then you might be able to get the treatment that you wanted. I have a quick story about a girl that I've had read somewhere, this girl told her friend that she always attract the bad guys or what this generation called as f*ckboys. Her friend laughed and said, "No, you attract everyone. You just choose the wrong ones." And that hit her.
See? It is up to you what you want to be served on your table. Allow yourself to leave if respect and goodness is no longer there.
