You did well 🧡 When they said you weren’t pretty, you didn’t believe them. You did well. When they said you had a mean heart, you didn’t believe them. You did well. When they said you brought bad luck, you didn’t believe them. You did well. When they said you couldn’t do well in a bigger city, you didn’t believe them. You did well. When they said it’d be hard for you to find a partner, you didn’t believe them. You did well. When they showered you with all the negatives, you filtered it all - only listened to your heart. You never turned sour. You did well. When it seemed like all the doors were shut & there was no way out. You stubborn child - you still didn’t believe it. You did well. All that noise, all that dirt & like a lotus, you bloomed through it. My love, you did so effing well! I am so proud of you ❤
