I think overall though I've become much more accepting of certain qualities about myself and the way I live life, while learning to let go.
When I was younger I really vied for acceptance from others by emulating them(In high school).I was a belligerent psedo-DL mess and I adhered to views that matched. This continued up until my late years in college.
I really didn't start accepting things about myself until a few years ago. It's okay to be feminine, its okay to be a Black man without dreads or braids or a fade, its okay to not be the smartest or richest in the room, and it's okay to be kind and not so guarded.
I try to accept that it's cool if I gave it my all and it didn't work out.
