Forgive yourself. For conforming to beauty standards projected onto you when you knew there was no metric that could capture your beauty. Forgive yourself for not creating boundaries and allowing people into a space they didn't deserve to be in. Forgive yourself for not showing up for yourself. Forgive yourself for not being your biggest cheerleader. Forgive yourself for the friendships lost because of the constant second guessing. Forgive yourself for thinking you couldn't be loved and it was your responsibility to make people love you. Forgive yourself for pushing yourself too hard when all you needed was rest. Forgive yourself for not speaking up when you should have. You know better now. You'll actively try to be better. Don't beat yourself up for making mistakes.  It's how you learn and unlearn.
