MY LIFE JOURNEY

This picture reminds me a lot of things.
It reminds me of two men that lived in the same hood, “the little timid sad boy and the man that breaks boundaries now".
It reminds me of the mockery, the “bad teeth" joke, the “ugly face" laugh, the “iron-pressed" buttock, the height problem, the comparison, the hate and many of them.
It reminds me of the “cowardly" act, the “victim shoes” I wore for long. The blame I shoved on God. The fingers I pointed at him. The words I muttered because I thought I was cheated. I believed I was a mistake but never knew I was the one that created rooms for them.
It reminds me of those tears i shed in my hidden spot. Those bad vibes I got and the worst part of this feelings came from my friends then.
It reminds me of the questions I asked. The hatred I have for my parents, myself, and the world. The pains I carried around for long.
It reminds me of those times I would stand in front of the mirror and let those lies stared back at me.
It reminds me of the day I broke away from them. The countless times, I would look at myself and called him “king of smile”.
It reminds me of those beautiful compliments. Those acceptances. Those love I felt, and those things I saw myself do.
Anyways, I just want to thank the other man for taking that courage to break out. For ever believing in himself and not that “timid ungrateful" boy , that believed in all those lies. Who blamed God, his parents and the world for his unsatisfied life.
I am so thankful to this man, for proving to himself and not to anybody that he is so contented with his small body, bad teeth and short height. And not that little brat, that wanted the world to feel sorry for him.
I am so grateful to this man now, cause he is moving fast and he will not stop till he achieved what he came to do on this Earth, and not to that disgusting fool, that made himself what he felt in the past, slowing the movement and creating room for those "self-hating and not believing” in his life.
My advice is: don’t belittle yourself for anything and anybody. Say no to body shaming and live your life the way God wants it.
