And I forget just why I taste, oh yeah, I guess it makes me smile.

Welp. I've come to acknowledge something that was obvious but I guess I didn't really think hard about. You can have a job but also still be a total loser. You can be disabled but still be successful. Things aren't black and white when it comes to certain statuses.

 

I always felt like a loser and a waste of society's resources because of being disabled feeling 'defective' or 'broken'. I didn't think that MAYBE just being kind to people and trying to do the right thing morally would make me worth something. I didn't feel like it was okay to exist.

 

Maybe, just MAYBE being empathetic is a talent worth acknowledging.

 

Maybe deep inside I knew this all along but let certain types of people drill things into my noggin about myself.

I love this. Being a kind, empathetic person will always be a net-positive to society. And we'll hopefully inspire a few other folks to do the same.

(i do have a dumb job tho but its so fking dumb lol)
