not to be dramatic but there’s something really fucked up that happens to your sense of morality when you grow up and people keep telling you things like “treat others as you’d want to be treated” but fucking no one practices or enacts it. my family said “be kind” and “love your neighbor” left and right when i was a child, but i had no example of what those things actually entailed because i was simultaneously told to not make eye contact with people perceived to be homeless, shown that boundaries could be disrespected with no consequences, & witnessed countless instances of injustice where the people who raised me could have helped those around them including myself but chose not to. i grew up thinking selfishness and meanness were forms of love. i have had to teach myself empathy and compassion because no one showed me how to be kind unless it was convenient and even then there were always ulterior motives. makes me feel like an evil person sometimes but i realize i am a product of my environment and the cycle ends with me. i am full of love and light and kindness and i have worked so hard to get here.
