So, I have three bangles now, one of which was gifted to me for Christmas. The "Sassy AF" bangle was just for fun because I am sassy AF and people know it. The other two have to do with how my life has been going over the past few years. In a nutshell, I got involved with someone who was incredibly bad for me, but because my self esteem was so low and I hated myself so much, I didn't care what he put me through. It got to a point after him lying to me about a lot of different things, that I told him off and decided I was better than what he had put me through. I am an actor and hadn't performed in years, and because my depression got unbelievably bad, I gained a lot of weight. So, once I decided I was better than what he did to me, I moved back home, started auditioning again, and lost 50 pounds (I am now smaller than I was when he met me). So, the two bangles that remind me of my journey and my continuous search for my happily ever after, are "Fuck Your Body Standards", and "I'm A Fucking Warrior", because I should be proud of who I am and how far I've come. I worked through the hardest period of my life by myself, for myself, and no one can take that power away from me. I love these bangles because 1) they remind me of my strength, and 2) I curse like a fucking sailor. Thank you for bringing these into my life!
