hi, i just found this, ive been little for a long while but i never found ppl who shared it, and i ended up crying a bit reading your blog... ive been wondering, i dont show my littleness a lot cuz im shy and scared of being judged, but i still feel little inside... is it okay to say to myself im little?
sorry it took me a while to respond to this, I’ve been a busy bee!
But, anyway, of course it’s okay to call yourself ‘little’! No matter how you present outwardly!
Some kidz have very grown-up jobs or have a lot of responsibilities and can’t show their littleness openly, because they have to pretend to be very big and in charge for a lot of the time! Some kidz were told that being childish and silly was a bad thing and they needed to ‘grow up’, and now it’s scary and hard to act small because people might be mean to them when they’re feeling most vulnerable.And some little ones just feel embarrassed at the thought of people seeing them being little. They feel a lot of pressure to act like a big kid, or they think people would only like the grownup parts of them. It’s really sad when you have to pretend to be a grownup all the time, or hide the little parts of you away. But it isn’t your fault, kiddo. The world can be a scary place sometimes. And you know, sometimes hiding the little parts of yourself is a good thing, because it keeps them safe from getting hurt.But that doesn’t make you not little. It’s okay if your littleness is something you keep secret and safe. It’s very very precious, and that makes anybody you do share it with incredibly privileged! I promise you’re little inside, tiny one, and that that is a very special and important thing. It’s definitely okay to think of yourself that way!- Azzy x
