I feel this so much! Especially the part about living on your own terms—it’s something I’ve been trying to embrace more, especially in a place like India where everyone’s got an opinion. The whole “showing up for friends” part really hits me too. It’s the little things, like unplanned hangouts or calls, that make a difference. And yeah, sticking to non-negotiables is key. It's tough sometimes, but when you do it consistently, you can really see the shift in your life.
