I know that words won’t be able to accurately describe how I’m feeling and how much this means to me, but I’m going to try anyway. These photos were taken in Thailand the day I found out I was accepted to become a YouTube partner, and now today, July 13th, I’m reaching another milestone of 100k subscribers. What started off as me posting for fun and as a way to vent, turned into so many people around the world relating to the content I posted. My younger self never would’ve imagined becoming a YouTuber, but here we are.
I couldn’t have done it without every single one of you, like literally. I really do appreciate you guys being a part of my story. Growing up I felt very alone and making the choice to go no contact with my family broke my heart because it made me feel even more alone even though it was in my best interests. But now I see why everything in my life took place. All of the pain, crying sleepless nights, not having a safe place to rest my head at night, and hard work has led to this. It’s led to me being able to share my story for other people to relate to online.
Thank you for giving me the honor of listening to your struggling and depicting them in videos for you to connect with. It breaks my heart because sometimes I realize you guys are the same age I was when I was dealing with my hardships and abuse. I read your comments and I listen to your stories. I wish that I had the power to grab you all out of the pain just like I wish could’ve happened to me when I was your age. But I’m here to tell you that it all happens for a reason IF you let it. I’ve fought so hard to get where I am today, and it has paid off. To anyone that is still struggling, you will not struggle forever. You will have your chance to grow and build something beautiful for yourself and NEVER let that opportunity go. A lot of you are so young and impressionable with your whole lives ahead of you. I hope you realize that. If I gave up on life when I was 12 years old, I wouldn’t have traveled the world, made a best friend who understands me 1000%, met a man who always puts me first and treats me right, and I wouldn’t be helping other people on the internet. I’m here to tell you to not give up, to keep fighting for something better. Because YOU DESERVE BETTER. You deserve to be loved unconditionally, to find healthy relationships, to have peace within yourself, and build a happy life. No matter how down, no matter how impossible it seems, I want you to remember that you deserve BETTER.
Thank you for giving me the platform that I have today. I’m human and I know I’ll make mistakes which is kinda why I’m scared of the internet because of how fast people are to cancel someone on social media. I hope that with whatever comes my way in the future, that you can still believe in me. I know that so many of you are watching me as my life is on display for so many eyes to see. I hope that I do right by each and every single one of you.
I know that sometimes I post sad videos regarding my family, but I wanted to let you know that I’m not asking for sympathy. I am happy now even if you see me crying on one of my videos. I know that no contact is best, but sometimes it is hard to live with, but when I travel I am at my best. Thank you for being a part of this journey with me. I hope that we can all learn from each other as we all come from different backgrounds. I hope that we can all help each other heal. Healing isn’t always pretty, and a lot of the times it hurts. But once you heal your wounds, they won’t hurt anymore. Healing Hurts Here. ❤️🩹
