It’s going to be ok. They are words I’ve heard my entire life. They were always well-intentioned, and came from a place of love, but I always hated that phrase. Because things were not ok. I was not ok with the way I looked. I was not ok with the way I felt. I was not ok with the way people looked at me, and I was definitely not ok with the way people treated me. And I was 100% convinced that things would never change, so therefore, things were definitely *not* going to be ok. I got to a point in my life where was fed up, and couldn’t live like that anymore. It started with with my first investment into a fashionable piece of clothing. It was completely out of my price range, and at the time, there weren’t that many fashionable and affordable options in Canada, so I had to pay even more for the shipping and customs. I was so excited and nervous at the same time, waiting every day for my package to come... and when it finally did, my heart raced, I didn’t know whether to laugh, or to cry, but I put aside those feelings so I could try it on. And... oh my god... I laughed, *and* cried. I loved it. I loved it so much. It was so expensive, and I had spent so much money on it, but it felt SO good. I never forgot that feeling, and I never forgot my first fashionable piece of clothing. From there, I continued getting more fashionable pieces in my wardrobe. And as my wardrobe changed, my confidence grew. I was becoming ok with the way I looked, and I *felt* better about myself. It sounds shallow I know, but when you’ve felt shitty about the way you looked your entire life, and you find something that makes you feel better, who cares? I found that as my confidence rose, people looked at me differently, and treated me differently. Maybe it was all in my head this whole time? All I gotta say to those who have ever felt like me, is this... it’s going to be ok ❤️
