oh my goodness this is precious Mo... and you are precious...

I have more than double your age and I wish I had 0.0000001% of your life wisdom. Well I am happy to be as I am.. and I am so happy to have met you here ✨

I know you don't need validation from strangers but let me tell you that you are a very unique gem, and your family and this world are very fortunate for you, for being you as you are.... wonderful 🙏

I spent almost all my adult life abroad, away from friends and family, forming a version of me so true to me that I had the opposite problem of figuring out how to coexist with others. That’s why this has been so I refreshing to read Mo, to get the perspective of someone who has been getting to know themselves. I too think we spend too much energy to make these versions of ourselves for people around us, probably so that we will be liked. I’ve found peace only when I stop thinking if I have to be this or that for people, and just BE.

And for what it’s worth, the small amount of time I have met you for you are a delight! May you be even more you tomorrow 😊
