I’m important too.
我也很重要。
It actually took me a while to get to the point where I can say this, but there’s no reason why my own wants and needs shouldn’t matter as much as the other people in my life.
我也是在经历了很多之后,才意识到这一点。然而,日常生活中,我的需求并没有理由比别人的需求低一等。
I deserve to have the same level of support and I certainly deserve to get where I want in life.
我应该得到同样程度的支持,我应该得到我想要的、那种平等的地位。
I deserve to be happy.
我应该得到幸福。
Helping people has always made me happy and it still does, but I’ve come to understand I want another kind of happiness too – pride in my own achievements, emotional resilience, stuff that’s really to do with me and not anyone else.
帮助他人总是使我快乐,现在也是如此,可是我开始明白,我也需要其他种类的幸福——为自己的成就、情绪恢复能力、以及真正与自己有关的事情而感到自豪。
It’s time to make that happen.
是时候这样做了。
