i will admit that i am upset by the spoilers & the gross things that this fandom has done because of them. 

i will admit that more than once i have gotten so pissed off by some assholes in this fandom & by the all the bigots that are in this fandom that i have contemplated on deleting all of my accounts.

but i can’t deny the fact that i love this place. i love naruto & i love most of the people in the fandom. i love this series & i love the characters & i am so grateful for kishi making this series.

i would literally not be here if it weren’t for this series. i would have probably killed myself if it wasn’t for this manga & the friends i have made because of it.

i am between a rock & a hard place right now in my life but you guys & this manga help me get through it. 

whenever things get tough i just can’t help but think that what naruto had to go through as a child was difficult, & that he got through it because of his friends & his own will & that motivates me to get through things.

i don’t have any friends irl but i’ve learned to be okay with that because i know one day i’ll be happy. 

sakura haruno has had the biggest influence on my life, i’m actually surprised that i’m not crying just thinking about it.

nobody believed in her as a child beside ino. she was constantly put down & called weak & told she was annoying by her team & her comrades. everyone was so surprised when she was able to do anything for herself or when she was able to be strong & i know what that’s like. i’ve always been looked down on by others & i’ve been told i was worthless & that i didn’t mean anything to this world, that i would never make a change. 

but sakura learned to become strong & she persevered through all of these obstacles & she never let anyone underestimate her. she never backed down from a fight & she kicked total ass & i’ve only ever wanted to be like her. all i’ve ever wanted in my life was to make a difference & prove to people that i am worth something & sakura is my perfect idol. 

she is the reason why i want to be a molecular biologist. she is the reason why i am so devoted to medicine & helping others & she is the reason why i have come to be a better person. if it wasn’t for this series & if it wasn’t for the bravery & kindness & passion that sakura has shown i wouldn’t be alive to write this. 

i am only 15 years old & i have a long distance to go in life & sakura motivates me to look forward to my future. she proves to me that with determination & perseverance you can overcome any obstacle put in your path.

this series has taught me a lot about love, respect, kindness, friendship, pain, understanding, family, & so much more. even with the close-mindedness of some people in the series & things like that i could never hate this series or kishimoto. 

naruto saved my life. 

ninja clan forever, guys! ♥
