Different and Unworthy


Being different and feeling unworthy of love often go hand in hand. Because for those that fit in, its so easy - examples are everywhere, your kind is all around, you're never alone. That's what makes those different, so susceptible to  manipulation. Because those that are different feel so elated when they find any kind of acceptance that they put down all their guards. For once they feel seen, feel like they matter,  feel like they can have dreams too. for once,  they feel loved. EVEN IF FAKE. They feel it, because they so badly want to. 

It's like the tale of 'the little match girl' - the little girl is dying with every matchstick that she strikes while dreaming up a life that keeps her heart warm while the cold kills her body. 

If you're different, and you're reading this, hold on. Give life a chance. Bloom to the best version of you. That's the best thing you can do for yourself. That's your true journey.  and if someone decides to join your journey and make it more beautiful together, That's beautiful. Cherish it with all your heart. But don't ever let that accompaniment come as a bargain of your happiness or at the cost of what you are. 

Never accept being loved or accepted DESPITE of what you are. The only love and acceptance worth having is the one that is FOR what you are . 

Love,
