NOT BRAGGING- I’M CRYING! PLZ READ ⚠️ If you all only knew my story. I grew up very insecure and I was (still partially) a tomboy. Growing up I was called all sorts of names that made me feel like I had to change/hide who I was to be accepted. & that became a habit of mine. The so-called friends I had around didn’t let me express or embrace my wins/ME. Anytime I would feel like I accomplished something or liked the way I looked a particular day & voiced it out, I was told I was being conceited, delusional or vain. & trust/believe I was nowhere bold then like I am now. When I started getting fed up with the bullying & running behind false friends, that’s when more problems occurred to the point that I was bullied, jumped, harassed, and all sorts. To the point that since the boys at school liked me (I think simply because I was good in sports & cool) the girls were very jealous & decided that it would be better to jump me (6 girls) & make school hell for me. I was even threatened that if I ever was caught attending prom I would get jumped again, so you know what I have NEVER BEEN TO PROM. 😢 🤦🏾‍♀️ Growing up wasn’t easy for me because either I was trying to please everyone or I was fighting my own identity. Aiming to be the greatest that I COULD BE bothered the peers around me & I didn’t feel like it was fair but I was too insecure. To the point where the fighting/bullying was just too much that I cried to my mum & asked to be pulled out of public school & attend a private school. & WAS. Thx mum 🙏🏾 NOW I stand here still w/ flaws & imperfection, BUT GREAT beauty & strength saying that I AM HAPPY to be able to witness my growth & confidence. IT DOESN’T MATTER IF UR SKINNY, PLUS SIZE, FUN SIZE, THICK, IMPAIRED, TALL, SHORT or ETC! IT’S WHAT YOU TAKE W/ THAT & WHAT YOU DO WITH IT. I’M CRYING RIGHT NOW, because for the 1st time in my life I’m ready to TAKE CHARGE of It CONFIDENTLY regardless if anyone leaves. Bcuz when my father passed away a few months ago this year I realized that I was already alone. So I’m strutting through this journey of Life & showing you, MYSELF & The Most High HOW GREAT I AM!! & YOU ARE TOO- DON’T LET ANYONE LIE TO YOU. 🤍ChiChi
