Leia isto se se sentir como uma alma velha presa no século errado

Já alguma vez sentiste que não pertences aqui? Como se fosses um pária que, por muito que tentes, não te consegues adaptar à era atual?

Já alguma vez sentiste que o teu coração e a alma tem centenas de anosApesar de o teu corpo ser jovem? Como se te destacasses da tua geração?

And this is not just something you’ve been thinking about lately. In fact, for as long as you can remember, you were always considered to be “weird.”

Ever since you were a little kid, you weren’t interested in superficial, everyday stuff. Instead, your attention was drawn by some deeper questions.

The same goes with all of your relationships – and I’m not talking about romantic ones here only.

You’ve always craved a real bonding experience.

You’ve never settled for less than someone you can connect with deeply, someone who gets you completely.

Parece-me familiar, certo?

Well, if this is something you can relate to, one thing is for sure: You’re an old soul trapped in the wrong century. And I have good news for you: You’re not alone.

Apesar do que pensa, há muitas pessoas que preferem conversas com significado a conversa fiada irrelevante.

Pessoas que têm um ou dois amigos verdadeiros em vez de um monte de conhecidos.

People who don’t focus their entire lives on their social media profiles, aren’t obsessed with the number of their followers and likes, don’t spend their days scrolling through their phone.

There are those who don’t care what others think and don’t change themselves to please society’s standards.

There are people out there who aren’t interested in material belongings, but know that what someone carries inside is the only thing that matters.

Ones who aren’t obsessed with expensive clothes they simply have to show off and don’t become slaves of every single modern trend that surfaces.

O mais importante é que, mesmo que não acreditem em mim, garanto-vos que há homens que sabem a diferença entre amor verdadeiro e luxúria fugaz.

Men who aren’t interested in your body only and merely trying to get into your pants.

I promise you that there are guys who aren’t into casual flings and one night stands.

Guys who aren’t doing their best to become players and competing over who can sleep with more women and break more hearts.

Há de facto homens que desprezar os encontros modernos tanto quanto tu.

E I promise you that one of these days, you’ll find a guy like this – a guy who’s also uma alma velha preso na época errada.

When this guy comes along, everything will make sense and you’ll realize that you’ve finally found your true soulmate – someone who was destined to be yours all along.

Não haverá noites sem dormir, não terá de esperar que ele se decida por si, não terá de decifrar os sinais contraditórios dele, não terá problemas em rotular a vossa relação e não haverá drama.

No entanto, até que esse tipo apareça, please, don’t change the essence of yourself just because you’re different. Don’t lose your individuality just because you’re rare.

Don’t be ashamed of the fact that you’re one of a kind and don’t even try molding yourself into someone else.

Don’t shut down your uniqueness. Cherish it for as long as you breathe.

Instead, appreciate the fact that you stand out. Be proud of the fact that you’re so special and one of a kind because, trust me, many would die to trade places with you.

Veja, o objetivo da vida não é misturar-se. Não é fazer parte de uma multidão uniformizada e passar o tempo neste mundo da forma que os outros nos dizem para fazer.

In fact, it’s about being true to yourself. It’s about being brave enough to follow your own compass and courageous enough not to change your path for the sake of being accepted and liked.
