A person talks about keeping a worn t-shirt since age 14 because it makes them happy, not because it looks good. Find small things that bring you genuine joy, whether a houseplant or a favorite shirt, and love yourself enough to keep them.

Chapters

I freaking love this shirt. I've had this shirt since I was 14. 14. It's a little rough for wear, but I love it. And sometimes you just gotta do the thing that you love, you know? It may not— it may not look great to everybody else. It may not look like anything but a tattered mess that's left, but I love it. I love it. Find that thing out there that just brings you that joy where it's like, you know what, everybody else, do you. I— this is something that's for me. This is something that I just, ah, I love it. Find that thing. Doesn't have to be huge. Sometimes it's just something small. The little plant I've got in the corner, ragged little t-shirt. Find your thing. Love on yourself today.
