    Okay well this is wholesome AF and has melted my heart … the white thing that Tom Daley was spotted knitting is a Olympic cardigan 🥺

    Sometimes all you need is one person to believe in you , for you to begin to believe in yourself.

    I ended up watching a few of her vlogs the other day after she won and saw the video she did about her accident. She had such an inspiring message about getting back up after you fall down. I'm really happy for her that she won a bronze medal, such an inspiring story :)
    Maybe somethings don't get better, but we do. We get stronger. We learn to live with our situations as messy and ugly as they are. We fix what we can and we adapt to what we can't. Maybe some of us will never fully be okay, but at least we're here. We're still trying. We're doing the best we can. That's worth celebrating too ❤

    @Millie2787 @meila It looks so good! I found his Instagram page for his knitting and he's really talented. He sells them to raise money for a brain cancer charity which is so sweet. :)
