Whatever it is that you are working to achieve, try to ensure that it will bring value to your life; if it removes value, or makes you feel less, what purpose does it serve?
You can only be yourself and no one else, you may pretend, but who you are will show through; it's always better if your true self, is the person, who they are seeking and truly want.
You can't remove everything that causes you stress from your life; and, that doesn't mean you should add more factors, items, or situations that could make it worse.
When you are in my company, an observed text, is you letting a stranger come over and whisper into your ear; a replied to text, adds insult to injury, by you whispering back in return.
If every voice around you echoes what you wish to hear, tread carefully; life weaves contradictions, and the absence of discord is one of its greatest illusions.
