I spent most of my life looking at pictures of the "perfect" people on social media, and feeling behind in my life. NO ONES and i mean NO ONES life is as perfect at they portray it to be. As humans we tend to only show the good parts of what is going on in our lives, and leave out the messy. It's okay to have days where you don't want to do anything, because you woke up that morning, you took a breath and decided to keep going. I have learned that it's okay to do things that make you happy, that fill you with joy, and love, and wonderment.

Don't get me wrong, I would spend days off in bed, watching my favorite tv shows, but i wouldn't do things that poured back into me, so I was constantly feeling drained. Self care is something I have preached about my whole life, but never really practiced. I have taken a step back from my people pleasing and have learned to say no, when I am to drained to offer assistance anymore. I have learned to hold to my boundaries, and that the word "No" is a complete sentence. I have learned to use my voice, and speak up for myself. Since then, I have slowly started being more authentic in who I am, and not hide parts of me just because of people's shitty opinions.Īt 25 i feel more like myself than I ever have.
I knew my parents would be supportive, but that didn't make it any easier for me to vulnerable and raw. I picked up the phone and called my mom, and uttered the words "I'm queer" through tears. I came out to my parents when I was 25 years old. I was told growing up that being anything but straight was such a sin, and that i would spent my life in hell because of it. Coming out was not easy, growing up in the church made it scary, and hard.
I came to the realization that I had been hiding a part of myself for my entire life. I am still searching as I believe we never truly know who we are even when we "grow up". I spent months discovering who I was, and what I wanted to be.

I did not know who I was outside of a relationship, nor did I know how to be on my own. When I separated from my husband I was terrified of what would follow. I am 25 years old and just now learning who I am.
