Why You Must Live Life for Yourself
3. Because you need to fulfill your needs
Everyone has spiritual, physical, intellectual needs. If not satisfied or if buried deep within, one can never be at rest. It is your body, your mind, your life! Of course you need to fulfill these needs. What is the way to do that? To do what you truly want, to live the way you truly want, to live for yourself!
4. Because you must find happiness for yourself
You can either please everyone, find happiness in others’ happiness and die, or find happiness in your own happiness. Trust us, the latter would be far more rewarding, and you will be way more content, and then die. The choice is yours. What is it that you want to feel on your deathbed?
If all the above reasons fail to give you an answer as to why is it that you should live for yourself, consider this. What is it that you were meant to be? Were you meant to spend your life looking after your parents, and your children, and your husband, and your bosses and neglect your own needs? If that is the case, why is it that you tell everyone that they should be strong and love for their own selves and make their own decisions? Or do you tell your kids, or plan to tell them when you have them, that they are never to live for themselves and live for others their entire lives? Think about it!
