My therapist reminded me of something yesterday that I'd like to share with you:

If you are doing what makes you happy, and you're not hurting anyone, then you are not a disappointment. If anyone is disappointed in you for being happy and not hurting people, that's on them.

I am not a disappointment for not going to university.
I am not a disappointment for not having a professional job.
I am not a disappointment for being quiet and non-social.

I am not a disappointment.
I am not a disappointment.
I am not a disappointment.
And you aren't either.

I've been quiet the last few weeks. I was disappointed in a lot of people, which led to massive feelings of disappointment in myself.

But I'm still doing quiet things that spark me. I still made my monthly charitable donation. I still paid rent.

And that's enough. I'm enough.

This is blowing up so if you'd like to support orgs supporting ppl who are happy & not hurting anyone, I recommend donating to one of these ethical charities

@AstraeaUpdates LGBTQI rights
@LittleWarriors helping child SA survivors
@CannabisAmnesty cannabis rights and justice
