"Are you who you were one year ago?"
So, at first glance, this is stupid question. A year is a long time, of course I've changed. But let's really think about it.
It's nearly my year anniversary on Tumblr, and that's had such a huge impact on me and my happiness. A year ago I found a place where I could be totally myself- and I was. I had inside jokes, and amazing friends. They kept me constantly laughing, and still do. I love them, and I mean it. And maybe Tumblr can't be that for me anymore, but I still love them. And the fact that IRL friends are on my blog can't change it's impact.
A year ago in my life I was in a terrible place. My best friend hated me, I hated my family, I hated school, I hated myself.
But the combination of people like Jill and Jenny, and the internet gave me a place to be myself. And I am forever grateful.
You know it's weird how much something so little can change people. Little communities of people, my small groups of people on the internet changed my life forever.
Weird isn't it?
