For A Class, I Had To Redo An Old Piece. I Decided, Instead Of A Complete Redo, To Rework It. By Rework

for a class, i had to redo an old piece. i decided, instead of a complete redo, to rework it. by rework it i mean add three pages like an insane person.

i’m trying to see the good parts of me, and trying is the first step.

Be careful with your honey, my friends! <3

Yup, I see this a lot as well when a celebrity or large figure gets dragged for good reason but then bullied for unrelated things that may apply to people who've done nothing wrong.

I've seen it so many times. Someone takes the heat for some dumb shit they've done and then, all encompassed in the energy of the angry mob, people start just insulting them for random unrelated shit like their hair, their face, their weight, their makeup, etc. I can only imagine how many people would see comments like that and start taking those insults to heart.

Being critical isn't a bad thing necessarily, to yourself or to others. Being critical helps us grow and improve. Being critical helps us keep ourselves and others accountable for our actions. You have to watch what you choose to pick on yourself/others for though.

Remember: If you wouldn't say it to a friend going through the same thing as you, then don't say it to yourself!

thinking about how fiona's bit in the first shrek movie about how ogres are so ugly and unlovable, which is overheard by shrek, is the perfect example of how self-deprecation can really harm not only the people around you who love and care for you, but also people who share the same characteristics that you are mocking in yourself

We reinvent ourselves every time we're impacted by something, every time we watch something influential, ever time we have a meaningful conversation. We are constantly reinvention ourselves. We are not a puzzle to be put together or a vase to be painted and then fired, but a piece of clay that never goes dry, constantly being molded from day to day, hour to hour, second to second.

You ever see a pretty dress, a well-organised notebook, a peculiar balcony or read one line of poetry and get the overwhelming urge to reinvent yourself
