Lost In Translation? Why Not Being Understood Is Actually Okay

Ever feel like you're speaking a different language than everyone else? 

Words tumble out, clear in your head, yet met with furrowed brows and confused smiles. Or worse — cutting remarks.  

It's enough to make you want to crawl into an existential hermit hole. 

But here's the thing: sometimes, not being understood is perfectly okay.

Imagine your soul as a kaleidoscope, a vibrant tapestry of experiences and passions unique to you. 

Now, imagine trying to translate that into words for someone whose kaleidoscope holds entirely different colors. It's a beautiful, messy process, and sometimes, the pieces just don't quite fit.

Here’s something extremely important to remember and hold onto tightly: your kaleidoscope is beautiful, regardless. 

You don't need everyone to understand every facet in order for it to have value. 

Embrace the mystery, the unspoken depths. Let your individuality shine, even if it shines a little differently.

Instead of seeking constant validation from others, focus on understanding yourself. 

Dive deep into your passions, explore the fringes of your thoughts. 

The more you know yourself, the less need you’ll have for external understanding and acceptance. 

Remember, the world desperately needs your unique perspective, your vibrant colors. 

Don't mute them just because some can't decipher the language. 

Keep speaking your truth, and trust that the right people will hear it, loud and clear. 

After all, sometimes the most beautiful things are the ones that can't be fully translated. 🙂
