Advice from a Friend

E- Thank you. I recently became the best version of myself I could ever be. Delaney we both know I was in a bad place. I realized this and now I'm content.
"Life is only as good as the thoughts you put into your head."
Once you understand that concept, things will start to turn around. Stop wishing you were me, and make yourself the best you can be so one day I'll want to be you

D- thats good advice but we both know how hard it is to follow it...there arent very many things mentally harder than building up confidence an all that really says is have confidence...ive been tryin an ill keep tryin but its not gonna be easy, not even close

E- No I was more coming from being optimistic and appreciating all the little things. Meditation is essential as well. When I say little things-- I mean like tasting a good food and just being so thankful for the ability to taste, or stand in the middle of nowhere and let the sun touch your body and think about how great it is to experience these simple little things. Also you have to not care about what ANYONE thinks of you. Ego is a trap, and it makes you feel so much better when you loose it

D- but what if its just myself thats blocking me? i dont see things an feel things like i used to...the little things dont effect me, but neither do the big ones...i look at everything but i dont really see it... "its like drowning but everyone else can see u breathing" i litterally hate myself, thats whats stopping me from being optimistic an appreciating the little things...i fake a smile everyday just to get by...its not my ego, that thing ran away years ago...i dont know what it is so i dont know how to solve it so thats why id rather be u bcuz u have everything worked out an u did solve ur problems an u got outta that dark place an into a good one

E- The only way I did that was to detach myself from myself. I hated myself and would harm myself to no avail. I'd let people abuse me and feel like I deserved it. You have to learn to love yourself. I know just hearing this right now will not have an affect. I look up to you Delaney. I love you with all my heart and you're the most beautiful and adventurous person I know. You are more talented than I am and you can also keep up with my crazy.. Not many people can do that. The big thing for me was discovering that I cannot Change how i look but I can change how I feel. You need to surround yourself with good, happy people which will make a huge difference
