#life statements

“..if you are travelling with a child or someone who requires assistance, secure your mask on first, and then assist the other person..”

Ya, the flight attendants always remind us to save ourselves first before helping others. Is it a selfish way? No, it’s the most logical way. You do need to be in good state before you can have a reasonable expectation of being helpful to anyone else. If you help the person on your right/left first, you’ll pass out even before you help them. But if you fit your own mask first, you may help both, the person on your left or on right.

And I adopted it as one of principles of my life.

I will no longer say “If something bad happen then I’ll help him/her or them first” or “I love you/him/them more than I love my self”. I’ll love my self, first. I’ll save my self, first. I’ll make my self as my priority, first. I’ll be happy, first. Then I can help you, love you, make you happy, or put you on my priority list.

For some who think that I’m so selfish to living a life like this then what can I say is I’m sorry I can’t help you with that. If being a sweet one feels like cheating yourself then stop doing it. You can’t make everybody feel satisfied, well you don’t have to. It doesn’t mean I don’t need anybody else even I need them to hurt me so I can learn to grow well.
