SOPPY POST INCOMING! šØ
This handsome bastard you see before you was me at the age of 21 (8 years ago). And let me tell you, he had at absolutely nothing about him. He was anxious, none of his clothes fit, he ate his feelings, he was scared of social interactions, he felt like a nobody. Sometimes, we have to go through some real heartache and self loathing in order to grow. Sounds crazy I know, but bare with me. I remembered hating myself everyday, looking in the mirror and being ashamed. āYou used to be captain of the football team, you used to win the bleep test, you had the best abs, the best flexibility, look at you now!ā
Look at me now⦠Look at where we are now. We did this, we got ourselves out of that hole. We got up every morning, we went to the gym, we got our life back on track because nobody was going to do it for us. There is no knight in shining armour thatās coming to save us, itās just us. And we did it!
Never in all of my life have I ever felt such a āpinch meā moment. Because, thanks to all of you Iāve never felt so attractive in all of my god damn life. And I owe you so much for that.
Now if you havenāt realised already, Iām a bit of an emotional guy. š
So Iāll Brb Iām just getting some tissues. š
(No itās not for wankingā¦š)
Iāll end with this, if you had told me 8 years ago this is where Iād be now I would never in a million years believe you, so if anyone is going through a tough time, similar to what I was going through then.
Donāt worry.
It gets betterā¦
I promise.
All my love,
Neil ā¤ļø X
