note to self: i’ll be there for you, always

written june 6, 2021. Photo by Kristine Cinate on Unsplash I have always looked for myself in other people. I think the idea was that they would somehow hold the pieces of me that I felt were missing. That maybe, if I wrapped my identity up in theirs enough, we would somehow make a whole person. It's not healthy to live like this, but I did it anyway — burning through relationships and searching for something I couldn't quite name. It was never enough, not to be myself, but it was never enough to latch my identity to other people, either. I got close, several times — I thought I had reached the pinnacle of self discovery. I thought I had completed myself. But in the end, relying on other people to help build yourself is never a viable way to do things. It's only recently that I've started to become comfortable with the idea of being enough, as I am, on my own.

Rough Day/Vote

Hello! Today has been a hectic day at our household!
We got up ontime this morning, but somehow we didn’t get ontime with school.
We didn’t finish all our assignments ontime for lunch, so after quiet time we had to finish up on that and now we’re behind on chores. Plus, my three-year-old sister is bothering my brother and me! < That’s almost what it’s like! On top of that, this morning I had a breakdown because I felt like I didn’t have any friends, and I was lonely. I was up late, too. So, it’s been a pretty long day. Last night (while I was up late), I had the idea of having a poll with my readers to see what things they like, colors, animals, etc., and this month it’s seasons; spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Post a comment and tell me what you think! Later, Kylie P.S – You have until midnight on October 15th to vote! Also, bloggers cannot vote more than once each.

I would go for fall definitely. Followed by srping summer and winter. Unless we’re talking about a winter with lots of snow then it would be, fall, winter, spring and summer!

Fun poll – I like easy ones
