This is a fitblr I made to motivate myself to exercise more so I’m not extensively posting about the genocides in Palestine, Sudan, and Congo or persecution of indigenous water/land defenders in the US but every single one of these catastrophes are built upon systemic racism which supports capitalism and colonialism and it’s important for all of us to find where we can get involved in anti racist work offline in whatever capacity. They’re often the ones taking direct action anyway if you’re looking to help

I want to run a mile every Sunday this month and then 3 miles on the last Sunday. Let’s start this up again slowly.

Bed rotted until 3pm? No problem get to work at 3:01

Not only did I finish the most important things on my to do list for school, I took time to do a home workout and made spinach dal. I usually spiral when I bed rot and end up being completely unproductive but I swear time slowed down once I started focusing and getting things done the day actually felt long and nice. It’s never too late to get started

Just read on TikTok “Remember your education is also a form of protest” and it just hits so hard.

As a daughter of immigrants and refugees watching all that’s occurring in the U.S. it’s a good reminder to all of us just how important education is. It’s something they can never take away from us. And even when it seems inaccessible it’s still out there.

I remember my grandfather telling me how terrible he felt leaving school before the age of 15 to work and provide for his family. But even in those times when food was barely on the table he managed to teach himself. He’s still one of the smartest, well spoken people I know.

My mom grew up during genocide. Her house was bombed, village surrounded by armed forces. She still proudly boasts how she’d stay up with candle light studying and when the war was finally over passed all her nursing requirements with flying colors. Despite this all, her high school education and nursing degree were not accepted in America because of the instability and uncertainty in which she obtained them. But that love of learning never left and she’s one of my greatest inspirations to follow a career in healthcare.

And I’m here complaining about the chance to take an expensive exam. When really I should be grateful that we survived to be able to allow me to take it let alone have the money to register for the MCAT.

This is just a ramble and a gentle reminder to myself more than anyone that we are the future our parents fought for. It’s something to remember now more than ever.

That being said if you live in the United States call your representatives! Support local immigrant owned businesses and love your neighbors and communities! We’re nothing without one another.❤️❤️
