It is okay to want your own happiness.
It's okay to care about yourself the most.
It's okay to do what's healthy for YOU.
When someone hits you, it's okay to hit back and
then ask them what the he*l they expected.
It's okay. You are not obligated to sit there and smile
and swallow every drop of poison that they give you.
You are more than furniture, you're more than window
dressing, you're not their shiny toy.
You're human, and you have the right to say, 'that was
sh*tty of you.' You have a right to say 'Let me feed
that back to you; tell me, how does it taste?' You
have a right to protest your own mistreatment and
set boundaries for respectful interactions.
The rest of the world doesn't realize you have this
right, and they will act offended and appalled when
you exercise it, but it is yours.
