Dear Anyea

Dear Anyea,

Why do you hate youself? I love you so much, I can't understand why you can't stand yourself. How can you not see how much people enjoy your excitement, your sparkle. You believe you need to stop, you need to change. You compare yourself so much to others you forget what beauty and talent you have. There will always be those people who are better or prettier than you. But just because those people exist doesn't mean you're worthless. Stop believing those lies that you feed yourself. Those lies saying you have to be the best or the prettiest or the strongest. You don't have to be perfect. You're allowed to have flaws. You're allowed to be mediocre. You're allowed to be average. You're allowed to be weak. You don't have to keep up a facade for everyone to see. The facade that you're okay, that you'll be fine, that you're happy. The problem with that, is that people believe it. And they forget that you do have feelings. They don't believe you go home and cry everyday. They don't notice because you've convinced them otherwise.

I know it hasn't been a good day, or a good week, or a good year. I know you wish things were different. That you were seen. That you were part of something. You wish what you said matters. You ask yourself: would anyone notice if you disappeared tomorrow?

Yes. I would.

Things will get better for you. I promise.

Sincerely, your best and most dearest friend,
