hi, i wrote something a little lengthy and before i misunderstand the bulletin is this about authenticity and self acceptance ? just to make sure :) 



yes! i was thinking about how i would feel so much content with myself when i realize that everything i went through is now a part of me, my ideal self seems so unreachable, it is unrealistic, but i will accept that fact. be whoever or make the choices i want without the need of looking for it in another place. i want to accept myself without having the need to build a different version of me

I totally understand what you are saying & I agree. But with everything going on in the outside world and inner turmoil that everyone faces, it is very difficult to find outlets besides sitting on the internet since it is most accessible. & some people grow up without the proper growth of finding their true selves due to trauma and upbringing. Some people do need the internet to find a personality to fit in. Even though it is very sad, it should not stop you from doing what you love and what you want to do. 



the internet really is a special place and while im always spending so much time on it, i wonder if theres even something truly mine outside of it when my real self only seems significant on the net. i dont think we should all stop using the internet as an outlet completely, i just hope we could find some balance between the personality we absorbed from the online world and our real selves on the outside. 

its fair that some people seek their own personality within a closed and vast space but i bet if we get so much information from that very space it can overwhelm our own growth as a person and make us completely detached from reality and eventually ourselves? 

i totally relate to the people you just described because im one of them too, but ive only realized recently that its only better that my identity isnt attached to anything, what suits for me defines me, i dont need anything more. i stick to whats mine, what seems to be comfortable to me, my clothes, although arent the ones i prefer, i like wearing them. and it is me, without filters, without codes.
