I think they're (society, media, etc.) constantly telling us how to feel. And think, and do. It's rather annoying.

"Acceptance leads to aging gracefully"

"Start using retinol at 26, future you will thank you"

Fuck that, indeed.

The truth is, this is an intimate/personal journey. We can laugh or cry, or do whatever it is we want to feel okay.

You are such an inspiration.
