Another Me

I survived a lot privately this year. A big part of who I am is what I’ll never speak about fully.

Not to anyone.

Personally, I don’t believe that I’m being fearful of unjust judgement. I’m not being selfish about my feelings.

I just wish that I had another me to talk about everything.

I read a powerful quote recently:

“Stop being afraid of losing people, and remember that you are a great loss too. Some people will spend the rest of their lives without ever finding someone like you again.”

Your parents won’t see you grow old.

Your partner never knew you as a child.

So take care of yourself.

Value yourself.

Love yourself deeply.

You are your own lifelong companion.
