Don't Be So Mean

January 19, 2026

I hear the way you talk
The unkind words you use
The cruel jokes and jabs
Rationalizing while insulting

All aimed at yourself

“I'm meant to be alone”
“It's fine, no one notices me”
“Silly, why would anyone care about me?”
“It's okay, I always mess everything up”

Why not stop?

I know kindness is hard
Complementing yourself feels impossible
Little by little, you can do it
I believe in you

Start with small steps

End the cruelty
Silence the harsh words
Cease the insults
Stop being so mean

Because you deserve better than that
