#repost • @cjoybellc: “Omg. My mother just sent me this photograph. This was in the 90s on my 16th birthday. Sweet 16th! Looking at this, I feel a host of emotions. Not to be petty, but, I have been on a journey of saving myself lately, and, this is definitely a piece of the puzzle that right now fits perfectly. So, allow me my space for a minute. I just cannot believe I was bullied so much by classmates. And at each of the schools I went to. While I was looking like this at 16, I clearly remember my bullies looking like anthropod larvae at 16. How did they get away with making me cry myself to sleep at night? It clearly does not make sense!♀️♀️ If I could go back and save this girl, I would tell her to not let ANYONE make her cry; that they would NEVER become worth a single tear. Ever. They’d always be stuck in their same bodies, minds, and never become any better. And they’d fade away as she was just beginning to shine! This is something I’ve spoken to @mixdgrlprblems about: about how people have a general perception of racism being an inherently white people’s flaw. But that’s only because they are speaking from a perspective of living in Western lands. From the perspective of living in Asia as someone who really doesn’t look Asian, the tables really do turn. Asians are easily incredibly nasty and racist and feel no remourse or responsibility to fix their ways (because the world gives Asia a free pass since racism is just supposed to be a Western responsibility). While I can clearly see that the unfair treatment was more a result of envy than anything else; I still do think that "they” felt more “at home” being beasts to me because they assigned “humanity” to those who looked just like them. With all that been said, bullying really does happen to the best of us. If you are bullied right now, and about to give up on yourself, if they spread rumours about you in an attempt to destroy your life… please take the words above, which I would have spoken to my younger self, and speak them to yourself right now. And one day in the future, you’ll see what I mean! " #mixedgirlproblems https://www.instagram.com/p/CcijAWjORMb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI= -- source link
