I know there’s people that probably think I’m really stupid cause sometimes I truly do lack common sense and I’m not entirely “book smart” but I’ve been told that I’m emotionally intelligent. It’s nice to know it’s not all black and white. Everyone has their strengths and weakness.

I relate to this so much. Growing up in a public school that focused on standardized testing destroyed my self esteem and had me thinking I was dumb as well
