I promise, you are tougher than you think. You got this.
those are women's clothes, those are men's clothes.... no babygirl, you bought them with your money, they're your clothes and you do whatever the fuck u want to do with them
wear what you want, eat what you want, write what you want, read what you want, go where you wanna go, do what ever the fuck it is you wanna do
as long it doesnt hurt anyone (except the conservatives), and it makes you happy, do it
this is your life... your own goddamn life and you live it the way you wanna live it. life's too short a game to play by someone else's rules

self-improvement should be because you want to improve your quality of life, not because you feel or think you *need* to be better in order to be loved or allowed to live. there's no end goal with self-improvement, it's easy to dig yourself a grave when you don't realize that you're not on a ticking clock to be the 'best version of yourself'. all you need to strive to do is be the version of yourself you are the most happy with. find out what values you find important, what kind of friend do you want to be, how do you want to react to things. what are things that would improve the way you go about life? what would make life easier, better and more enjoyable for you?
Have I never stared at myself in the mirror before? I did today for what felt like the first time ever. Dumbstruck by the natural femme qualities of my face. Luscious and full hair and eyebrows, big piercing dark eyes. I like how I look. I was always kind of indifferent.
I really needed to hear this, thank you.
I've been having so much doubt over whether or not I'm on the right track, and I haven't even STARTED university yet. It's also hard when people try to tell you what you should be doing and you're just trying to figure out who you are. I'm sure it's different for everyone, but I, at least, need to experiment. The years after high school are so crucial to a person's development and self-discovery and being constantly surrounded by negativity and comparison, whether from yourself or others, can feel paralyzing.
My advice to anyone in the same boat is just to keep going and find out what works for you. Not your parents, not your siblings, not that one kid in your class who's perfect at everything, YOU. Don't give up, don't let anyone tell you how to live your life, and go do something great!

Why can't my ribs show like this???
It's the only way to stay sane in this mad world
I just realized something about the written English language and how it uses capital letters. So we capitalize the first letter of proper nouns i.e things which are unique and there is only one of (at least ideally). The Louvre, The Mona Lisa, Rosa Parks, and I.
We capitalize the word I, which implies, each one of us is unique and there is only one of us. Which is obvious. But like, isn't this reason enough to unapologetically be yourself? Or, you know, something more poetic along these lines.
i so needed to hear this.
I want to be a kind and loving person, and I will continue to put effort into my compassion and softness instead of being swept up in resentment and hopelessness.
