The one with the advice

We all fall victim for trying to seek approval from people our entire lives, be it family or friends. We act a certain way to please them or do certain things to pacify them. And sometimes it comes with the price of forgetting what we truly want to do. Today I received the simplest yet best advice. 

Lead your own life, however you want. Do not let someone else tell you how to lead your life. It's your life. Your life.

That simple. That straightforward. &yet not that easy to follow through.

Actions speak louder than words but at times, simple words like 'I'll always be there for you' set you free more than anything else.
