i have no words, truly speechless. this just made me feel at home, comforted and understood. i wished this was shown to literally everyone, because it is such a beautiful story written in such a simple way that i believe people would be bound to understand and acknowledge the message of this story "labels don't define you. who you like, your gender identity are not your personality." you're not friends with someone because they like girls, that would be stupid, i mean, i dont think anyone has even had that thought when meeting someone like "oh you like someone of the opposite gender? then lets be friends". it is such a simple idea yet, somehow ,we as humans found a way to complicate things. what good is it to worry about love? why is loving somone so controversial, you don't get to chose who you fall in love with so why are we punishing people for something they never had control of? why force them to be someone they're not? why not just simply let them love each other? live hapily together. its so simple. why wait until you come to regret after having no way back? why consume yourself with hatred, only to be left with guilt, shame and regret when you lose that person? is it really that serious? what does it mean to live? does anyone even have an answer to that? i dont know what the meaning of life is, but what i do know is how i want to live my own life. i want to be happy, live my days full of joy and laughter surrounded by loved ones. but i do not want to live with regret, i do not want my days to be spent agonizing over things i could or should have done in a different way. i know it is not possible to live completely free of those things, above all i am human, i will make mistakes, but surely will learn from them, and if its within my control i will try my hardest not to make any actian that might result in regret later on. there are so many things i won't be able to control that are bound to make me feel negative emotions, but i'll just have to accept them. life is a beautiful and terrifying thing, you dont know when or how you will die, nor the people you love, so why worry about such trivial matters as labels, love and many others, why not just live? i don't have a specific goal, i don't know what i want to do in my future, i don't have anything to look forward to, but is that so wrong? can't i just live to find and build my own happiness?
this story also shows why such "comunities" are important. its not because that is our personality but simply because we finally feel seen, heard, and when you meet someone with the same interests as you, you are bound to form a bond.just like a book club, your interest align, you finally hace someone to talk to for hours about things you both enjoy, same with video games, sports, anything really. in this case its about finding a home. living in a place where you cant even be yourself or you are bound to be harassed, abused, estranged just because of something so simple like love or gender is degrading, and most of all tiring. having to live a facade, wondering why you are different from others. "why cant it be me, why am i not normal, why can they live a truly happy life alongside someone they truly love but i cant?" thoughts like those often pop around in your head, and you can only find someone or something to bame, usually yourself. so finding a community who is just like you is so comforting, seeing ppl from diverse background, diferent ages, just gives a feling of calmness and comfort because you see that you are not alone, and even better, you can actually live like that.
so this story just really resonated with me and it's so simple yet correctly written, the characters and their actions, despite the different ages, their feelings and thoughts. I believe it should be shown to everyone. kids and adults. because as humans we tend to not understand feelings we don't share, for example, how can people even like avocado or coconut?? i hate it no matter how much i try, i just don't understand, this ight have been a bad example idk it just felt liek the right comparison. but going back to what i wanted to say: this story is written in a way that allows you to understand how the ppl in the lgbtq community feel,and show that even though somone might have the same label (like lesbian) they dont think the same way, just like straight ppl don't all think the same way lmao, and i belive they could finally kind of get a view of what it is like to live like that, how its literally not different from the "norm" that society is used to.
