Dear Pluto,

You and I are far more similar than one would imagine.

Obviously, there are big differences as well, considering you are a planet and I am a human.

But what does that mean?

We are both made up of the same kinds of dust that were thrown around the universe like glitter.

We are both quite small.

We are both undiscovered.

We are both nothing.

But mostly, we are both happiest far away from the heat of the action.

However, we are not what people like. We are not what people want us to be.

They'd rather a Mercury, or a Venus.

Something interesting, fun. Something that likes to be involved.

But that's not us.

And there's nothing wrong with that.

I'd like to thank you, Pluto.

For reminding me I am also a Pluto.

And I am not alone...

From,
The Short Girl,
Whom has been struggling significantly lately.
