I accidentally came across this photo online a couple months ago & I felt this urge to save it. Its just something about it that kept me staring. Its 1 am ish right now and I'm just reflecting on this crazy adventure of a life I'm living. I'm looking into the mirror surprised at how happy I am... Because as a child I was very depressed. I hated the world... it was so cruel so cold to me. Grammar school, 1st half of high school... Just jeez. I cried a lot man I went through so much pain... all alone. But one day, idk specifically who/what it was, maybe it was just me looking into my heart, but something made me decide to take control of my life and to make it beautiful. And this is what this art reminds me of... The transition that led me to the beautiful life I live today. Something made me realize that this world is worth living in. Find that something. Enjoy the world. Its yours! I'm not rich. I'm not perfect. I make mistakes and I go through many struggles and stressful times, but I'm happy. So happy because I'm unapologetically being me & living life the way I want it to be. Oh, & I've gained amazing friends a lot the way who support me! Live your life 😁.
