when people misunderstand you, slander you, take you out of context & paint you as someone you are not, it's so tempting to shrivel up & hide! but the antidote is really to just be even more of who you actually are. the truth doesn't need proving, only radiating.
was walking my 8yr old brother to school today and we saw a car with a Biden sticker so he said out-loud “it’s really weird to idolize politicians instead of viewing them as public servants” i was like yea whatever but finish ur beer u know u cant take that inside the classroom
I’m not even fazed at this point. People sympathize w my abuser for the same reasons I did and they see what I saw. I have no control over that. Just know I’ve been you dude. I’ve been you on an even deeper level. And it hurts to see it from ppl that know the facts. But I get it.
