Uma carta para ti quando sentes que ninguém se importa

Levanta-se de manhã não porque está ansioso por ver o que o dia seguinte tem preparado para si, mas porque tem de o fazer.

You don’t look forward to seeing people and you’re not looking forward to new mornings and days because you forgot how amazing feels.

Even if something amazing happens, you probably wouldn’t be able to notice it. Because you’re too busy feeling alone.

A partir do momento em que abre os olhos, este sentimento apodera-se de si. Acordamos com um sussurro no ouvido que nos diz que ninguém se importa.

It tells you how you need to say, “I’m fine,” whenever someone asks you how you’ve been or how you shouldn’t tell others about your issues because nobody really cares.

You get up, strip off your clothes and get under the shower. You let the water roll down your face while you continue thinking that there isn’t a person in this world who could understand you.

You feel like you’re the only one, like you’re alone. So you end up getting out of that shower feeling tired even before your day started, but you somehow resist the urge to crawl back to your bed.

É mesmo esta a vida que queres ter? É mesmo assim que queres viver? Sentir-se cansado, sentir que ninguém se importa, que ninguém compreende?

Aren’t you tired of feeling tired? Aren’t you tired of constantly bringing yourself down?

At one point you’ll have to snap out of it. At one point you’ll have to find the strength to impedir-se de ser tóxico.

You’re the toxic one here. You’re hurting yourself. And you need to stop.

You have to stop hurting yourself and decide to take care of yourself for a change. Because if you don’t do it, nobody else will be able to help you.

Algures ao longo do caminho, no conforto da sua cama, esqueceu-se de como pode ser agradável e caloroso ter alguém que realmente se preocupa.

Esqueceste-te de como é não te sentires sozinho, de como é ansiar por um novo dia e por novas coisas fantásticas que a vida te pode dar.

You might be unable to see it now, but this feeling of loneliness doesn’t come when nobody cares. It comes when the person you care utterly about doesn’t really care about you back.

There isn’t an uglier feeling than to see that the person you’d do anything for wouldn’t even do half of the things you’re ready to do.

Only then your self-doubt starts and once that avalanche has been started, it won’t take long until it buries you.

You start feeling like you’re not good enough. You start thinking how you can’t do a single thing right and you start hating yourself and your life for not being lovable.

Mas o pior de tudo é que começa a sentir que ninguém se importa. E fazes tudo isto sozinho.

Em vez de culparmos a pessoa certa, acabamos por atribuir todas as acções erradas de uma única pessoa a todas as outras pessoas da nossa vida. E lentamente começa a afastar as pessoas.

Because of this one person who did you wrong, who didn’t reciprocate your feelings, you end up thinking that we’re all the same. But we’re not.

You’re just temporarily blinded by emotions, but once you’re okay, you’ll see you’ve been projecting the insecurities of one person onto all the people around you. And that’s what you shouldn’t have done.

Por isso, amanhã, quando abrir os olhos, decida-se a esperar ansiosamente por esse dia. Sorria antes de se levantar da cama e, enquanto começa a despir-se para tomar um duche, comece a cantar.

And then continue singing. And then get out of the shower and play some music. Let it be a song you’ll continue playing in your head.

No dia seguinte, faz a mesma coisa. E no dia seguinte e no dia seguinte.

Sorria para a sua fé e dê as boas-vindas ao seu novo dia com uma canção, pronto para ver todas as coisas fantásticas que o vão atingir nesse dia.

Quanto a the person who doesn’t care about you and because of whom you started feeling unlovable and unworthy and not good enough of others’ attention, well, there is only one thing you could do and that’s to walk away.

Even when it might be hard to do it, even if you don’t want to hear it now, it’s the truth and I’m gonna drop it right here-sometimes you have to be your own hero and guard your own heart because a person you utterly care about doesn’t care about you at all.

Darling, you’re the only one in charge of your life and if you don’t love it, how do you expect anyone else to love you?

Whatever disturbs your peace, whoever makes you feel unimportant, unworthy or miserable- then they don’t deserve you and you’re allowed to walk away.

Once you walk away from such darkness, you’ll come to a daylight and you’ll be able to clearly see that there are people who truly care about you.

There are people who want to know how your day was, who’d like to go to the movies with you and who’d enjoy grabbing a beer at the bar with you.

Afasta-te de tudo o que te faz sentir miserável. Pára de afastar as pessoas boas. Aprenda a apaixonar-se de novo pela sua vida.

Cuide de si. Cuida da tua felicidade. Quando nos preocupamos, todos os outros tendem a seguir-nos.
