Should I be singing? Not at all. But I've been sick for 3 weeks now and barely able to talk for most of it and I'm jonesing for some singing. So am I fucking up my throat even more by singing? Yes. Do I care? Not right now. Though I'm sure I'll regret that tomorrow. 🤷‍♀️

3 poems down now and I finally feel like I have my head on straight again. I still have a lot to get through though. But at least now I'm not losing my mind. I couldn't even concentrate on repotting my tomatoes because my mind was weighed down so heavily. Time for a break.

It's been about 20 years since I wrote a poem. They've never been good, so eventually I just stopped. I wrote one earlier today, and I wish I had something better to write about. It's still not a good poem, but I have a lot of identity issues to face, and this seems like the most natural way to face them.

I'm going through old photos to organise some of my digital shit and generally speaking, going through old memories is very hard for me. There's a lot of pain there.

Which is still true at this moment, however the particular period of time I'm scanning through at the moment is not only mixed with that vague feeling of dread deep in my stomach but also mixed with thoughts along the lines of, 'I was such a little hottie??? Wtf?' In particular there are photos where I am seen next to my best friend at the time, and I remember how much I struggled with the comparison between us. To be more specific, how I felt that she was breathtaking and I was not. Now I can see that we were both beautiful in our differences.

I have truly held so much disgust towards my body throughout different stages in my life and it makes me so sad to look back at that girl, that woman, and think she felt she was anything short of beautiful.

Looking back at past versions of myself and noticing the tenderness I feel towards her has truly been such an integral part of my journey with self-love. I even keep a photo of myself at around age 5 at my desk, the same one that was owned by my great grandmother, and remind myself that I am still that little girl that deserves love.
