ya know. I really hate a lot of things about myself that I should feel lucky to have
I hate my legs because I feel like they are fat
but there are girls who can't gain weight that would probably love to have legs like mine
I hate my smile because my teeth have weird little gaps in between them
but there are people who can't afford to get braces and have worse teeth than mine that would love to have teeth that are straight, despite whether or not they have gaps
I hate the way I get attached to people so easily
but there are people who are born with people problems or grow into them and can't love anyone or like anyone and I'm sure they would LOVE to get attached easily than not being able to get attached to anyone at all
I hate the way my hair grows, in some spots faster than other spots
but there are people who don't have hair at all and cry themselves to sleep because people laugh at them or look at them weird and would love for just one day to have hair like mine
i hate myself and I hate being alive and breathing
but there are billions who didn't ask to die and would love to still be breathing right now.
and I want to give everyone all these things
but I can't because they're me
and I feel selfish because I am never going to be able to give any of those people those things
because they didn't have it for a reason.
everyone's flaws are what makes then so much more perfect
and they don't realize that, but I realize it.
i may not be able to be strong for myself because I feel as if I don't deserve it
but I'm going to be strong for EVERY SINGLE girl or boy who doesn't have hair,
EVERY SINGLE person who can't gain weight,
the kids and adults who don't have perfect teeth,
EVERY SINGLE person who can't get attached to anyone, I will give them endless love and affection in ways that they can't, so they feel loved even though they can't give back,
for EVERY SINGLE person on this earth.
I'm staying strong for them.
