Okay guys. It's 11pm. But, a thought came to me. Not really a thought, a realization. This might sound cringe or corny or whatever you wanna think, but, personally, I think this might help some of you out there too.
So, prepare for a long silly thing about not caring about what others think.
For most of my life, I really cared about what others thought. I hid myself from a lot of people, and when someone I didn't trust found out something I was hiding about myself, I really just wanted to crawl into a hole and stay there.
But I've started to realize...no one really actually cares. Well, maybe they do, but...who cares about what they think?? They can call me names and do whatever they want. But, for me? I'm starting to grow. I'm starting to realize hiding myself actually made stuff worse. It's better to just be me.
Being yourself, and just giving up on caring about what others think and literally anything like that can make your life 10 times better. It's really hard to let go of that mindset that everyone cares and judges you, I know it is. But it takes a while. It's a process.
I never actually wore stuff I liked or expressed myself in public until about a few months ago. And I never really told people how I felt. It took me about two years to actually not care about what people thought.
And so what if people judge you? You are just too cool for them. People who judge other people suck, and ignoring them and being who you want to be is way better than fighting them back on it or not expressing yourself.
This is your sign to BE YOURSELF and stop caring about what others think.
I love you all /p <3
You got this!!
