This is Me

      Yesterday I watched The Greatest Showman, that musical staring Hugh Jackman as P.T. Barnum. I know the movie heavily glosses over fact that he was in fact a terrible person, but if I wanted facts I would watch a documentary and not a musical. I however enjoy musicals, and this one had a song that really struck a chord with me. "This is Me", a song sung in the movie by the "freaks", but I think anyone who has ever felt different or hurt by someone else's words can relate. I know I did. Being told by someone that no one will ever love you seriously can mess with a person...for a long time. I won't get into it because this is not the place for that. It did inspire me to take a picture in my digital life reflecting some of my non-digital imperfections, because they are part of what makes me, well me.

This is me


      Even this isn't truly me, there are still many scars missing, and tattoos too. Every mark on my body is a sign that I have lived, some of those times the scars were worth it and other times, not so much, but they each tell story. Those times when I am feeling weak I have a playlist I listen to and I look at a tattoo that reminds me I am strong. And now I have written a total bummer of a post. I promise the next one will be full of lightness and my usual randomness.
