Description
So, a friend and I were talking about Hamtaro when I was finishing up a drawing.
I decided to be really indulgent and re-imagine my old Hamtaro OC, Moonlight. I drew her back when I was 14 years old. As much as I wish I could share the old pictures I drew of Moonlight back then, I like to think that my past-self would be really proud of how this turned out.
Aside from me drawing an OC, this was a sort of recreation of a drawing I made for the Mental Health Quilt event that happened on Tumblr in 2016. In an odd way, it's sorta like an old re-draw I did, except I used a different subject matter.
But I feel with these tributes/allusions to my past self, I am really content with the affirmation here because in essence we're all like stars--we've got a light inside of us that shines brilliant and w have a heart full of love, too. While we can extend compassion to others in life, we can extend that same care to ourselves--and treat ourselves kindly, as well.
