Exactly.

The people we love change us. When they leave, they don't really leave as the live within us through the actions and quirks that we pick up from them.

I think it's a beautiful thing and something to be embraced. I hope everything goes well for you.

I'm sending hugs your way!

And that is really the best way of seeing it.

We're like canvasses and the people in our lives come in and paint on us, make us who we are.

Some people paint over each other and others are obscured under this paint. But they stay there, under all the layers, making us who we are, even if it's under the surface.

Others are the primary colors, such as family and other loved ones.

Honestly man, people pick on you right now but in a few years, that won't really matter.

People don't really care about your looks in the real world, unless they like you.

Kids your age are just assholes but don't listen to them. They're just insecure about themselves and making fun of you helps relieve their insecurity.

As hard as it may be, try to ignore them as much as you can. You'll be okay
