I am not ashamed that my teeth are not perfectly straight. I wasn't always able to say this, but my BF has turned that around for me over the past year. He makes me feel so beautiful.
I am not ashamed for the things I've been through in the past. Sometimes, on the rare occasions that I share the stories, the words sound so crazy that I even think in my own head that I sound like I'm lying, even though I lived through the actual event and I know it happened. I'm over that though, I know what happened, and more importantly, how it has effected me positively. I would not be as understanding and considerate and compassionate and empathetic if I hadn't been put through hell.
I am not ashamed to dress however I want. I never wear bras, even at work, they're just so unnecessary and I won't let society dictate a single aspect of my life. If I want to wear a dress or a skirt one day, and then turn around the next day and dress in jeans and a tshirt, and then turn around and wear a pirate corset dress, then I will dammit.
I am not ashamed to attend music festivals. I know most people have a generalized assumption that they're just a bunch of dirty hippies getting inebriated and acting like fools, but I have an advantage over those people...I know the real truth. I know how much love is captured and spread at these events, how at home and peaceful you feel being surrounded by other humans who love music just as much as you, and feeling absolutely free to express yourself in any way shape or form.
I am not ashamed for playing these adoptable games. I started when I was 12, and that was a long, long, long time ago. I love showing off my cool animals to my friends, I'll never feel like a child for playing adoptable games.
ParacosmA paracosm is a detailed imaginary world. Paracosms are thought
generally to originate in childhood and to have one or numerous creators.
The creator of a paracosm has a complex and deeply felt relationship
with this subjective universe, which may incorporate real-world or imaginary
characters and conventions. Commonly having its own geography, history,
and language, it is an experience that is often developed during childhood and
continues over a long period of time, months or even years, as a sophisticated
reality that can last into adulthood
