Stories are magical
Okayyy so this is going to be sort of like a blog (is that what it's called?) I believe I am kind of weird you know? maybe it's the teenage hormones or the fact that I have been reading a really good coming of age manga....but my brain is riddled with thoughts. I honestly made a Tumblr account coz I thought I'll be like one of those cool people who post cool stuff I see on Pinterest. But then I posted something (I don't even remember) and it got zero likes lol. It was pretty depressing haha no...it seriously was. Even now somewhere deep down I believe or hope that I'll become famous from this post lol. But again maybe it's the really good coming of age manga I read thats making me try to be a bit vulnerable and like myself here. First of all are we even supposed to post such shit here on Tumblr or am I being like one of those idiotic people who post too much personal stuff online? Plz suggest some good blogging sites for me if it is.
Ok so coming back to the main point....i think stories are absolutely amazing, life changing even. It could be any platform...books, movies, manga etc...sometimes you just find a story which clicks with you and even before you know it your personality is being shaped by it. I studied in one of my psychology class that human behaviour is influenced by our experiences....so of course the stories we encounter become a part of our existence. I find it a bit sad that people tend to underestimate the power stories have over us. Just look at me...read a beautiful story at 3 am and the introvert me is typing this much for everyone to see online. Damn my digital footprint. But seriously though...for the people who say that having characters of different races, colours or even simple as nose shape, they don't realise how having this representation can be such an impactful thing. I tend to be quite insecure about my nose....its kind of flat in the front? But I was once saw Henry fricking Cavill in enola Holmes and saw he had a similar nose. Quite weird the thing that I thought made me ugly was something that the most handsome man possessed(not bragging here or am I?) Anyways now i honest to God do hope no one sees this post. Do anyone even use Tumblr anymore ? (no offense)
This felt exhilarating. Kind of like I placed my first step of being myself and not caring about others opinion? Anyways cheers future me! hope you read this and love yourself a bit more.
