dawn! this is so lovely thank you for sending this to me! ❤️I think the first time I properly paid attention to harry was with sott (which was what made me a fan in the first place) but the first time I was like.....oh shit I’m going to become a hardcore stan of this man aren’t I was after watching his speech in mexico after the manchester attack and hearing what he said. I was going through a pretty rough time and what he said about choosing what you want to put out in the world really stuck with me. It changed my perspective a lot on how I perceived my own mental health, because if I didn’t want to see other people being the way I was to myself, then why was I treating myself so horribly? I needed to be what I wanted to see in the world, love, so by treating and perceiving myself the way I was wasn’t going to do that. it’s been my phone lockscreen ever since. his entire response to the attack really connected with me and I’ll always appreciate hearing that speech at the time I did. he’s a lovely man. seeing dunkirk also fully sealed the deal
