Sometimes, the bad things that happen to us are not valuable lessons. Nothing can be extracted from them, there are no positives to some tragedies. It is okay to feel grief for what happened to you, to mourn what you have lost, to know it was not fair. It's not about wallowing in self-pity, but sitting with the feelings of sadness for a while to deal with them, instead of bottling them up. Sometimes, we can only let go of the past by grieving it, by admitting it was not okay, but now that we are dealing with the pain, we can hope for a better future.

This doesn’t make you different or special. Everyone has another side to them. Even me! The Affliction, Marie Howe / Turning Red, Domee Shi / Ch 100.17 / Turning Red, Domee Shi / My Mother, Madame Edwarda and The Dead Man, Georges Bataille / “Lake,” Neil Hilborn

"No one remembered my birthday-" Well, but did YOU tell anyone it was coming up and you wanted to celebrate it with them?

"I wish someone would see through it when I tell people I'm fine-" Well, but have YOU considered not lying when people ask you how you're doing?

"I am so resentful of my friend because they keep doing this thing that really bothers me-" Well, but have YOU directly communicated that the thing is bothering you?

"I am burning out because my friend keeps expecting me to help them with serious struggles-" Well, but have YOU tried to establish the boundaries you need to feel okay?

"No one ever asks me about this thing I really care about-" Well, but have YOU brought it up yourself?

"I miss my friend but they haven't texted me-" Well, but have YOU been reaching out to them?

Sometimes people are mean, uncaring assholes, in which case you get to be mad. But sometimes you just need to communicate better. Try communication before you assume someone doesn't care!

Feeling very normal about them

Ulrich Stern with the Bee Miraculous!

Ulytra is the best name I could come up with for him, but please, feel free to suggest a better one if it comes to your mind.

Learning from Vesperia, I tried VERY hard not to make him look like a wasp. His two swords are his stingers that can paralyze an enemy if he hits them just right.
