    And here I am with no desire to display anything on myself, or make any statement with my clothes or behavior.

    I don’t feel the need to tell every stranger my life story. :)

      You know it’s okay to dress brightly, flamboyantly, dazzlingly and even fabulously too, right?

      Yet here you are doing in fact that exactly. What’s that called again?

      Oh yeah, virtue signalling

        Nope. Just want to say that there are many people who don’t have the need to put on a big show about themselves. It’s fine to just exist without broadcasting it to the world.

          It’s also fine to celebrate sometimes

            Celebrate what? I don’t celebrate just being alive, but maybe I should. :)

              Agreed, take some time to be happy being you :) And if you have other people you relate to, maybe take some time to celebrate them too
