Weird answer maybe buuut... myself, and my dream families and friends. Sometimes I spend all' my time daydreaming and I often come up with critters who end up close to me, sometimes even very close. Between their love and support and my own disregard or outright disdain for various useless opinions of who I'm supposed to be... I'm getting pretty firmly into the DGAF region of my mindspace: I'll be me on my terms. I'll try to be my best me, the Keris in my dreams, but that's my journey to make.
... I'm kinda busted so it's hard to connect with real people any more :-\ 🤷 Was really shocked when I found out the hard way I'd really bonded with some dream critters. Thought I'd gotten the risks managed but nooooope Misery was building a bigger batch of sad. Anyway, wordsy wordses blar blar blar et ctera 🤷 😴
you are loved. never forget that Keris ❤️
Not a weird answer at all! Being your own best support is a dream that most do not end up fulfilling.
Be proud of yourself Keris, you're a lot closer to that dream Keris than you realize ❤️
I see it and I know everyone here and in the chats do as well 😘
