I Got Tired

I got tired of trying to keep up with everybody else. I got tired of trying to be like everyone else.

I got tired of checking likes, being anxious, and not knowing how to be bored. I got tired of constant consumption. CONSTANT CONSUMPTION, when I could’ve been creating.

I got tired of feeling guilty that I didn’t know what others were doing. I got tired of constant notifications in my pocket. I got tired of caring about caring.

I got tired of feeling like I didn’t measure up. I got tired of feeling like a failure. I got tired of watching everyone else’s highlight reels. I got tired of pleasing everyone else. I got tired of asking for permission. I got tired of being told to keep up.

So I stepped back and made something for myself, something worthwhile. I tried to make something that I could share with the people who feel like like I do. Something for the people who are tired of chasing a ‘perfect life’ and keeping up with everybody else. This is for you.
