Added 2023-02-06 01:25:14 +0000 UTCI wanted to share something I wrote a few weeks ago with you. I have not shared my writing here for some time, because I'm not sure it is really the place for it. That being said I think it gives you a better look into my mind, because my writing is just my thoughts with some added rhyme. ••• Who am I? See that's a tough question, so I thought about it for a while... I am someone who comes from a place of feeling little. Feeling like I'd never really accomplish much at all. "Hey, someone will do it for you. You just gotta stand there and look pretty, comb your hair and do a twirl." What a sad thing for a little girl to think, to feel. Looking back, I understand. Unintentionally, it's a slow sculpting, an undermining of worth, really. It starts when we are kids, our environment, our surroundings, the building blocks to how we perceive ourselves. We grow up and there's no superiority complex, no... but worse, there's no hope at all. You see, I was weak, easily controlled, by the ones who told me I was nothing, these manipulators. At some point in my life, I finally realized something wasn't right, and that's when I asked the question... Who am I? I discovered, I was being held back by this notion that I latched on to since I was just a little girl. Like I was not destined to have freedom at all. So now when I am asked, who are you? I say, I am a person who is strong but not the kind of strong where I rip bricks out of walls. I am the strong that faces adversity, that leaps at the chance to try something new, even if I know I might fail. The strong that lifts people up, not in the physical sense, but because I know how it feels to be trampled to the ground. The strong that despite all odds, is standing tall. The strong that shows people around me, they can be strong as well.
