Why Some People Will Never Understand You—And That’s Okay

 

Where Do I Get My Content From? – The Truth Behind My Words

The other day, a friend of mine asked me, “From where are you getting all this content? Are you just writing it randomly? Or have you actually felt these things?”

And to everyone who has ever wondered the same, let me make this clear—everything I write comes from within me.

These words? These emotions? These stories? They are mine. They are the echoes of my own experiences, my own struggles, my own victories, and my own realizations.

I don’t just put words together randomly. I don’t write just for the sake of writing. I write what I have lived.

If I were writing just to fill pages, I could have picked any topic. I could have written about finance, business, or things I’ve never truly lived through. But I don’t. Because the best thing I can offer to this world is my truth.

There are plenty of writers, bloggers, and influencers who gather information from books, from news, from trending topics, and then create content. And there’s nothing wrong with that. But that’s not what I do. I don’t just absorb ideas and repeat them.

Because here’s what I believe—until I’ve experienced something firsthand, until I’ve applied it in my own life, I have no right to preach it to the world.

Why? Because I wouldn’t know the real consequences.
I wouldn’t know the depth of it.
I wouldn’t know the pain, the struggle, the lessons.

And if I don’t know that, how can I speak about it? How can I tell you to do something I haven’t done myself?

I don’t believe in half-truths. I don’t believe in pretending to be wise when I haven’t walked the path myself.


I Fail. And I Have No Shame in That.

A lot of people just write.
Some people write their dreams.
Some write their imaginations.
Some write their life experiences.

And I? I write about my failures.

Yes, you heard that right. I fail.
I have failed many times in life.
I have lost battles.
I have fallen down so hard that it felt impossible to rise again.

But you know what?

I never stopped there.

Every time I failed, I rose again.
I tried again.
I became better.

Not because I was forced to, but because I chose to.
Because I knew that every fall had a lesson hidden within it.

And let me tell you something important—failure is not a bad thing.
Failure is not a curse.
Failure is not a sign of weakness.

Failure is proof that you tried.

And when you try, you learn. When you learn, you grow. And when you grow, you become unstoppable.

That’s why I never fear failure. I never feel ashamed of it.
Because I know—it’s part of my journey.


I Don’t Chase Perfection—Only Growth.

A lot of people say, “Become the best version of yourself.”

But me? I don’t chase being the best version of myself.

Why? Because I don’t want to burden myself with perfection.

Instead, I focus on being the better version of myself—
Better than yesterday,
Better than my past mistakes,
Better than who I thought I could be.

Because the truth is—there is no ‘best’ version of you.

If you keep chasing perfection, you will always feel like you’re lacking.
You will always feel like you’re not good enough.
You will always feel like there’s more to do, more to achieve, more to prove.

And that’s exhausting. That’s a trap.

So, I don’t want to be the best.
I just want to be better—for myself.


Your Inner Child Matters.

We live in a world that constantly tells us to grow up, to be mature, to act our age.

But let me ask you something—at what cost?

Growing up doesn’t mean killing the child inside you.
Maturity doesn’t mean becoming a machine.
Success doesn’t mean ignoring what truly brings you joy.

When you silence your heart’s desires…
When you stop doing things that bring you joy…
When you start listening only to logic and ignore the emotions that make you human

That’s when your inner child starts dying.

And when that happens, you don’t become more mature—you become a machine. A robotic version of yourself that no longer knows how to feel, how to laugh freely, how to embrace life fully.

So, yes, I refuse to kill my inner child.
Yes, I am growing, learning, and evolving every day.
But that doesn’t mean I will stop being silly, jolly, or full of wonder.

Because that part of me is just as important as my wisdom.

When was the last time you did something just because it made you happy?
When was the last time you danced in the rain?
When was the last time you laughed so hard that your stomach hurt?

If you can’t remember, then ask yourself—what part of you have you lost?

Your inner child is not something to be ashamed of. It is not a weakness. It is your soul’s light.


It’s Okay.

  • It’s okay to be silly.
  • It’s okay to fail.
  • It’s okay to not have everything figured out.
  • It’s okay to do things just because they make your heart happy.
  • It’s okay not to please others.
  • It’s okay to experiment.
  • It’s okay to be yourself.

And that’s the only truth I know.

That’s why I write. That’s why I share my experiences. Because I have lived through these things, and I know how they feel.

I write to reflect, to heal, to understand where I can do better, and to question how our society can do better.

So if you ever wonder where my content comes from—it comes from my life. My truth. My journey.

And I hope, in some way, it helps you in yours.
