To me, it’s just amazing what something small like that can do. Being yourself sounds so easy. But in my opinion, being yourself and living that out takes a lot of courage. In the end, it could be pissing a lot of people off and make them shake their head at you.
But let me tell you, the people I have met by being authentically and honestly myself, and also expressing that , those people have enriched my life so much.. Those people are so amazing that it is kinda surreal for me now to think about how I was even able to meet them.
No matter how many people I might have upset by being myself, no matter how many people shook their heads at me for being myself, it’s more than worth it when I see how many amazing people I was able to get to know in such a short time!
And what comes on top, those people you’ll meet will love and like you for who the fuck you are! Not someone you made up just for the sake of them liking you. Some character you have to keep up while being with them. They love and like you for who you are and by staying honest and true, you’ll put that friendship to a test over and over again. But when it works out, it’s the best feeling there is. Those people love you for who you are, for exactly that person! Not for someone you invented or someone you think they wanted you to be!
That gives me so much power to just know there are people out there like me. People who think the same way, people who just fit.
A thank you to all those people! They for sure know if that message is directed towards them, if they read that post. And thank you for all those people who commented on my last post! You are encouraging me to keep going, for being who I am, to keep spreading my ideas and thoughts. To keep pursuing.
Much love to you all! You’re amazing for sure!
Till next time.
