Feeling very simple today...
I don't know how to word what I'm feeling other than it feels simple.
My whole life, I was the weird quiet kid, the girl who got good notes and way too opinionated in history class, the one who was always reading something, the one who asked too many questions, too curious, too smart, too loud, not loud enough, not street enough, not understandable enough, and my whole life I saw myself as all of those things, but today I feel simple. I feel like me.
It took me 28 years to realize I don't have to be something, I'm just me. I don't have to fight myself to prove or negate the concept others have of me. Yes I am all of those things, but I'm just me.
It feels strange to have this notion now. Relieving. Very relieving but strange...
I don't know. I don't know where I'm going with this but I think this app has taken the place of a small journal for the moments where I feel something I want to share but I don't have anyone to share it with, so there it is LOL.
