Favoured Frenzy
There was a girl who always seemed happy around everyone. She laughed at every joke, talked to everyone, and acted like nothing could ever bother her.People thought they knew her because they knew her secrets, her favourite things, and all the little details about her life.
But nobody noticed how carefully she chose what to share.
She had learned that not everyone who listens actually cares, and not everyone who smiles at you wants the best for you.
So she stopped explaining herself to everyone. She stopped trying to prove that she was a good person to people who had already decided otherwise.
And slowly, she became quieter—not because she had nothing to say, but because she finally understood that her peace was worth more than everyone's approval.
One day, someone asked her, “Why have you changed so much?”
She smiled and replied, “I haven't changed. I've just stopped giving everyone access to me.”
Sometimes, growing up means realizing that not everyone deserves the same version of you.
