I realized like a marionette, I had strings attached to me that others had been pulling on. I had become a puppet and was being manipulated and directed in the moves I made. Finally, I’ve decided to cut those strings so I’m no longer being controlled by others.

It’s easy to get caught up and become a stringed puppet especially if you want to see everyone happy. However, a puppet has no voice and only comes to life when it is being pulled and for the purpose of entertaining others. A puppet can’t tell its puppeteer to stop pulling its strings because as long as the strings are there, they will be pulled. The only way to break free is to cut the strings!
