it used to be something that I did for the doctor
then it became a habit
and what became habit, turned into an obsession
everyday I woke up not knowing if I was gonna love or hate myself
my body turned into a prison and my mind turned into my tormentor
I loved looking into the mirror until it was the worst thing I had ever done
hated the body that my ancestors worked so hard for
but my reflection started to take a different shape this year
because I realized that my future will have traces of me in it
my children will look like me just like I look like my mother and father
could I tell my child they were too ugly for this world?
could I tell my parents that what they are is never good enough?
I couldn’t
i felt too big in a world so small
i felt too small for a world so big
but now I know that my body is a map of love stories
and my children will inherit my beauty
thank you for this tiny tim <3
THIS IS AMAZING I LOVE IT SO SO MUCH
this whole part:
“I loved looking into the mirror until it was the worst thing I had ever done/ hated the body that my ancestors worked so hard for/ but my reflection started to take a different shape this year/ because I realized that my future will have traces of me in it”
and how you likened it to your kids and hating yourself vs. hating your kids, bro that was powerful
this post might just save the planet
