In the introductions when Kelly said she felt as if she didn't fit in this life. I felt myself hold my breath, because that is such a painful thing to say, then it got even worse when she said she felt she was born to be a joke.
I know that feeling. We all knew it at least once or twice, and hopefully, only for a few fleeting moments. Now, with the help of her family and the BL people, Kelly has a chance to change all that. WE DO TOO!
I know what it is like to live in both of those families!
My mothers side is loving and supportive. There is no yelling, never gossip. They show self restraint and keep emotions in control. They would never be rude to another, so they keep quiet even when they see you not taking care of yourself. They dont say it- but you can feel their eyes see it! So, the elephant is always in the room and never mentioned.
(I was the usually elephant. They are all very naturally pretty people, weight was not much of an issue for any of them, I never fit in. As much as I love them all, I am self conscious to the point of PAIN in their company.)
My fathers side is loud, bossy & overbearing. They dont see anything wrong with you unless you complain about yourself. Then of course, they know exactly how to cure you, and they all disagree about how to do it! Funny thing is, they are all naturally thin too. I have no clue where in the world I came from! However, the hugs are tighter, the love is genuine and acceptance is overwhelming. You truly are cherished and wanted even as you are being yelled at to step it up and stop being a nudge. There would be no communication if there was no yelling! They see beauty in all you create, and can't see what you think are flaws.
Back to the show-
I can't root for one side over another. I can say that I believe without this show Robbie might not see 40. So, whoever wins, the people who love him will get the best prize of all. Good Luck to all of them, and good luck to each of us.
Now, all this typing has burned at least 50 calories, and I am having a few apple wedges, and 4 almonds as a reward! ~ Mia
