Festival of Self

My mind wanted to find you among the people at the festival— all standing in groups, dancing, having fun. And I dissolve into music, forgetting everything for 45 minutes.

Wake up. Another day. Whether you are there. Whether you are not. Wake up. Another day.

Looking in the mirror— laugh, smile, being someone. Whether you are there. Whether you are not, I am.

Tips for falling in love with yourself

1. Show yourself some kindness and compassion – This can be hard at first, but it’s so important to be kind to yourself. Don’t forget that mistakes are part of life and they don’t define you. Treat yourself like you would a best friend or someone you care about deeply.

2. Practice positive self-talk – Try replacing negative thoughts with positive affirmations. Celebrate your successes and acknowledge your progress, no matter how small. Remind yourself of all the good things about you and that you are worth loving.

3. Focus on what makes you happy – Find something that brings you joy and invest time in it every day. This could be anything from reading to writing, drawing, playing sports, cooking, etc. Doing something enjoyable on a regular basis will help build your self-confidence and allow you to enjoy the present moment.

4. Take time for yourself – We often forget to slow down and just be with ourselves. Find a few minutes each day to check in with your emotions, thoughts, and feelings. When life gets too overwhelming, take some time off and unplug from your devices and social media. Taking a break will help clear your mind and allow you to appreciate life more.

5. Make yourself a priority – Give yourself the love, attention, and care that you deserve. Find activities that make you feel happy and fulfilled and make them a priority in your life. Invest in yourself and your well-being by focusing on developing yourself as a person.

6. Set boundaries – Learn to say “no” when something doesn’t make you feel comfortable or happy. Don’t be afraid to express yourself authentically and make sure to listen to your needs and feelings before making any decisions. It’s ok to take some time alone if that’s what you need.

7. Get rid of toxic people and habits – Evaluate the relationships in your life and make sure they are healthy and beneficial to you. It’s also important to let go of any negative or toxic habits that are preventing you from loving yourself.

Loving yourself is an ongoing process and it takes time, effort, and practice to cultivate self-love and acceptance. But by following these tips, you can start falling in love with yourself today!

On My Way

New diary comic about finding self-affirmation in less than ideal conditions.

George Takei on the long history of anti-Asian hate in the US (link) Daniel Dae Kim speaking to Congress (link) Karen Chee on the Atlanta shootings (link)  

I have to learn the importance of loving myself no matter what external messages I get from my environment.

Sandra Oh famously said, "It's an honor to be Asian."

Yes, and now more than ever. Glad to know we are not alone.

✨Coming out is not the final/first stage of being nonbinary!

It can be part of your nonbinary experience but it doesn’t have to happen first!

It doesn’t have to happen at all!

Coming out is not a goal that you have to achieve, it is a choice only you can make ✨
