It's staggering how if you talked to Me, A Few Years Younger I could not have anticipated like...anything about my current self?
Try telling high school me that I'll end up a trans girl who likes model kits and wrestling and is a huge furry and my head would explode or something.
Despite everything I do think I feel my most fully realized at the moment? Even if there's a lot of unresolved tension, the fact still holds that I'm the most Me I've ever been.
I feel like if high school me and current me had a talk high school me's takeaway would be "wow I am a lot more resilient than I thought :)" and also "wow not as much crazy hedonistic gay sex as I hoped :/" which is I feel a fair criticism
