I Apologised for Fat Shaming

Now I reflect back. I should not.

As a writer who’s desperate for any kind of feedback or critique on the articles, I know only non-stop learning and embracing diverse opinions can improve my writing.

So, I welcome any fact-based “comments.”

As I thought about making a post for this article. A plot in Harry Potter ran into my mind: Aunt Dursley could no longer use ‘baby fat’ as an excuse for Darley being too big to fit into the school uniform.

So, I wrote, “If your friend wants to lose weight, stop telling them it’s just baby fat and tell them to get to workout.”

As if,

I want to write better.

= I want to lose weight.

So,

Give me critiques, and don’t find excuses for my typos.

= Tell me the truth that’s not baby fat at 30, and find me a gym.

I never expect myself to apologise for not having empathy or sympathy for others since I AM not blessed in life and DESIRE to love and to be loved.

Guess people are resilient to attack in the name of justice but refuse to attempt to clear out a fact.

I dreamed of being an employed writer, but now I enjoy balancing learning, working, reading, backpacking, and occasional writing. And rapping my heart out!
