Just a reminder! (blog version)

You are human! It's okay to make mistakes! And even if you aren't exactly human (otherkin, therian), you are still imperfect and that's okay!

Everyone makes mistakes and the best thing you can do is realise what you did wrong and what can you do to work on your behaviour! You will never be perfect but there is always space for improvement and you can get rid of the traits you don't like!

Another good thing you can do is not be judgemental and not assume that someone who did a bad thing once will be bad forever! Rather, judge by whether they realise what they did was wrong and if they are working on improvement! If they are able to apologise and admit to a mistake!

I've struggled a lot with my self-esteem due to people bullying me over something I did when I wasn't in my right mind, even after I apologised and promised to change. Be kind - both to yourself and other people!

What I find beautiful is people who actually admit to their wrongs and try to change for the better. It's people who don't strive to be perfect - instead trying to be themselves without hurting anyone.

I'm working on self-love with Lady Aphrodite and this reminder is also for me. 

I did bad things in the past, like everyone, but what makes me good is that I actually realised they were bad, apologised and changed.

I am probably too shy and anxious.

I sometimes rant about everything on here.

I might be annoying and obsessed with my dream.

I am chronically mentally ill.

I get tired.

I procrastinate.

I get acne.

My skin is too pale.

I have a bump from a pen on my middle finger.

I get stressed during practical exams.

My chest is too small.

I have scars.

My ears are too protruding.

I have knock knees.

I struggle with sexuality.

My hips are too big.

I don't always have the energy to shave.

My hair is damaged from hairdye.

I struggle with emotional expression.

Sometimes I can't help but use AI - either from loneliness or curiosity.

See? I have flaws. I tried to skip the things that aren't probably objective, but some things I have called myself were "selfish" (for wanting to have my needs met), "immature" (grew up too fast and now acting like a baby) or "lazy" (either mental illness or actually just thinking that on a free day). But anyway, I have flaws and there are things (even if not real) that I don't like about myself.

And that's okay.

Because after all we're all just people and we can't be perfect, and besides, perfection is boring!
