my different selves + Frida .
first of all, Happy Wednesday, we're already half way through the week.
A quote by Frida Kahlo, which I adore and connect with is the following,
.
"I used to think I was the strangest person in the world but then I thought there are so many people in the world, there must be someone just like me who feels bizarre and flawed in the same ways I do. I would imagine her, and imagine that she must be out there thinking of me too. Well, I hope that if you are out there and read this and know that, yes, it's true I'm here, and I'm just as strange as you."I'd like to think that Frida was talking to me, and in that I do not feel as strange. I'm not sure if its just me, but sometimes I just watch people, I watch how they interact, and love, and communicate, and sometimes I feel as though I can not relate. I sometimes feel my views on life and experiences differ. without getting all deep and too personal, I have different selves, I mold and shape, I am one with myself, but I have different selves. I am aware this may sound strange, let me continue to elaborate. I am loud, I am quite, I am shy, I am curious, I am rude, I am kind, I am passionate, the list goes on. This Frida saying is honestly one of my favorites, it makes me feel like my thoughts arent totally bizarre.
so, thank you Frida.

I am learning to accept me as me and stop comparing myself to the things that I simply will never be.
My hideous laugh,
the way I cry over things I am passionate about,
the things I find funny
my big nose,
my fat lips,
my hips,
the way I feel
the way I think,
are all things im learning to accept.
