Bravery

You know what’s funny? I really haven’t been trying to prove anything for many years. I stopped doing that a long time ago.

I know they’re together. And I know Louis isn’t a dad. I’m here because it’s fun. Most of the time. I post stuff about Larry because I love their love.

In the eyes of many, One Direction was just another cheesy pop band. A group of five young men who were lucky enough to profit off of the supposed "hysteria" of millions of teenage girls.

Though I am not even two years deep into my One Direction journey, I can confidently say that they are so much more than that. 

One Direction is a family. A group of people you can completely be yourself around. Those who will support you through your difficulties and your victories. Whether it be the love from the boys or the rallying of the fans, One Direction is there through the highs and lows of it all. 

One Direction is a shelter. While the outside world is swirling with evils and atrocities, One Direction provides a place to breathe. For some it may be a distraction from the horrors and for others it can be a comfort. Within the walls of this fandom, nothing else can hurt you, even if only for a moment.

One Direction is a love. The bond between the boys and the fans is unlike any other. An evolving connection that's almost magic. An indescribable force that no one outside can understand. Something that will never fade.

All of these pillars are what make One Direction so extraordinary. I am incredibly lucky to have been accepted into a space where I can experience these wonders. 

So thank you.

Thank you Directioners.

Thank you Louis.

Thank you Harry.

Thank you Niall.

Thank you Zayn.

Thank you Liam.

It’s July 21st. 7/21

7+21=28

28. Are you kidding me?

Lots of the radio pages on insta have posted some really nice things, particularly Louis acknowledging Liam, but when there’s REALLY nice press about Louis to share?? What happens?? Absolute SILENCE so far from the celeb newspapers

This tells me everything that all Z’s stories are fed by her, if he does something (like attend the World Cup semi final) it’s always her first in the headline or they can’t write a story about him without using her. He doesn’t need or want press like that.

I’ll almost put money on the “supportive gf 🤮 and sister” at his final show once Z’s posted something 🙄

I just wish we could bottle the happiness we saw in him at the gig yesterday and share that forever. I hope he gets some rest with H now 💙💚

It’s so aggravating. I don’t get it at all. It’s like there’s an embargo on positive press about him.

🥹😭

🥹 that’s lovely.
