Not EntitleD

“Don’t demand that things happen as you wish, but wish them to happen as they do, and you will go on well.” – Epictetus

Do you truly deserve anything? That word—deserve—is often wrapped in entitlement, as if the world owes you something simply because you exist or because you’ve suffered or because you’ve tried.

But perhaps a better question is:
What is natural?

It is natural to love yourself.
It is natural to desire love from others.
It is natural to want freedom, peace, and purpose.

These aren't things you earn like prizes. They are qualities of life that your soul naturally gravitates toward. So instead of demanding what you think you're entitled to, Align your life with what is natural and live in accordance with love, truth, and freedom—not as a right, but as a practice.

The fight isn’t for what you "deserve." The fight is for clarity, discipline, and integrity, so you can live aligned with what is natural and good. You are not owed these things. But you are invited into them.
Live in a way that flows with nature—not against it.
