For many years I felt I shouldn’t exist or as if I didn’t belong too. My dad told me growing up that he wished I was a boy because he wanted a son. That inflicted a lot of emotional pain for a long time. It sucked. I constantly focused on just him and his approval etc.. Today though I focus on those in my life that I know want me here and love me for me.

You’re supposed to be here. I’m happy to hear you are grasping that idea and hope you continue to do so every day.
