I cannot even begin to imagine how hurtful it must be for children of rape, kids in foster care, and people with disabilities to hear over and over and OVER again that they’re the exception. That THEY are the people who everyone uses to argue why abortion is okay. They are always the people who are told it’s okay if they don’t live because they’re a burden. GOD ABOVE HELP US, YOU MATTER. If no one else tells you, I’m telling you now you’re WORTH fighting for, you’re WORTH IT. You deserve to be alive. You’re just as precious and valuable and beautiful as anyone else and I pray with all my heart that you never forget that.
forgive yourself. whether you fail a test, eat too many cookies, say the wrong thing, fail a class, or spend a whole day in bed — learn to forgive yourself. the next day will be better. the next day will be a day closer to your next success. you can do it.
