When I started yourfavusescontradictorylabels I was a very different person, a person I barely remember anymore. I have vague memories of the people in my life, my mental state, and the notions I was going through at the time, but that's really it.
When I started yourfavusescontradictorylabels I was quite scared of the backlash I would receive. Despite support from some friends at the time, I worried this blog's lifespan would be short due to the harassment I would experience. I was proven wrong and received much support from a community of lovely people who were glad to be seen, and in turn, made me feel seen. Most backlash was minimal and for that I'm thankful.
When I started yourfavusescontradictorylabels I wasn't sure how long I could keep up with the duties this blog created for me. Ultimately, I realized that this was my blog, and while I didn't want to leave it be, I could take breaks from it whenever I liked. And every time I came back, people would be excited and nice to see me back, the support never diminished.
Through all this time, people have been supportive of my work, this community showed me so much love in the darkest times of my life and for that I couldn't thank you all enough. Ultimately, I've grown a lot over my time running this blog. My responsibilities and aspirations have changed drastically, and I won't have much room left in my life going forward to continue running this blog. It makes me sad having to conclude here at this point in time, but I know it would've all been worth it from the many supportive messages from my community I've received.
For this, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you all so much for what you've given me and what I gave to all of you.
Goodbye.
