Prompt: Write about a conversation that changed you.


 One time, my friend told me, “You don’t always have to make everyone happy.” I didn’t realize how much pressure I was putting on myself to please others. That short conversation made me think about how often I ignored my own feelings. Since then, I’ve learned to set boundaries and do what feels right for me. It really changed how I treat myself and others.

Summary:  a conversation with a friend who told me they didn’t have to please everyone. This made me realize they were ignoring their own needs.

Reflection: The conversation helped me understand the importance of setting boundaries and valuing my own feelings. It taught me to care for myself, not just others.
