This time last year Isak Valtersen was in biology googling the boy he couldn’t stop thinking about but never thought would ever love him back.
This time last year Isak Valtersen was afraid of who he might be.
This time last year Isak Valersen couldn’t talk to his friends.
couldn’t see his parents
was afraid of his mothers mental illness
unable to sleep at night
This time last year Isak Valtersen was alone, lost, and delving deep into self hatred.
and now?
a year later Isak Valtersen is loved, open, proud of who he is, who he loves, where he came from.
No matter where you are right now, how you feel, how lost and dark and lonely the world seems, remember this.
This time next year it will be just a memory.
so much can happen. so much can change.
and when you have love and support; you can truly do anything.
You are beautiful and strong and i love you so much.
