I remember the day the stars went up was a day filled with more yelling at a child who didn't deserve it. The stars left holes in the paint on the closet door and I didn't realize how much they bothered me until I painted yesterday. It feels like a whole new room. I'm reclaiming my home.

I just want to take some deep breaths and heal. I don't regret any of the people I've cut out of my life, their absence is my mental health, but I haven't added anyone and I'm not feeling the need to. I just want to focus on my health and creativity.
