it's not brave for me - it simply that if someone really can't accept me for who i am, i don't need them in my life. after all, having someone in your life whose constant message to me is "you're not a good person" is harmful to me.

and since my mom is who taught me to be myself and be proud of whatever i do, i can't see that i was ever in any real danger of her not speaking to me.
