In life, I learned that not everyone who says they'll listen is a friend. I learned that not everyone who stands beside you wants to be there, so I started to keep things to myself—my sentiments, my secrets, my dreams. I built a wall between me and the rest of the world, not just for my benefit but also for others.
But if there's one good thing I learned, it's that building a wall around you lets you meet the best people. Because if someone genuinely wants to know you, walls won't matter. Not even the tallest and the strongest ones. If a person wants to know you and seeks a place in your life, all walls will crumble, and they'll do anything to be by your side. The others? They'll just back out. That's why I'm grateful I learned to build invisible walls around me. It may have prevented me from having more people around, but I know that the ones I have will stay with me until the end. I can live with that.
