I think one of the ways you’ve most helped me is in helping me redefine what it means to be a good person. Because so often in our culture it feels like to be a good person you just need to shut up and garden your whole life (to use your analogy), and I felt like I was a bad person for wanting to enjoy life and learn and explore the things I was interested in.

And you also helped show me that it’s okay to like myself, and liking myself is not the same as becoming an egotistical jerkface who’s completely oblivious to any of his flaws… I was so afraid of being that, and I thought the only way to be a good person was to actively dislike myself, or else I would never improve. But you gave me reason to question that belief and helped me discover that liking, loving, and being myself helps life go so much better, helps me think more clearly, and ultimately helps me improve as a person and motivates me to face my flaws instead of endlessly obsessing over them in self-loathing.

There’s a lot more I could say but I’ve already stayed up too late writing this, haha
