Just wanna say thank you 🫶

Description

Across all social media platforms, I'm receiving so much love from strangers on the internet. I'm reading words I never got to hear as a teenager. Words like; "I'm so proud of you", genuine encouragement & people celebrating even my small accomplishment with me; cheering me on from the sidelines.

It's what I wished I had as a kid—and so desperately needed—but was so deeply devoid of. I have gotten some of the nastiest comments on my posts & I seem to be able to take those easier than I am able take in the loving & supportive comments. That says something.

I never thought that signing up for GED classes would begin to heal a part of my life I never thought I could.

Maybe now I get to prove something to myself & the world I never could back then. No matter what, this is all for teenage me & mothering her the way she deserved & never got to be mothered. ❤️

Thank you all.
