I really like wearing my dainty little pride necklace because the straights just think it’s a cute necklace but the gays...they know.

Things you should not comment on:

someone’s weight

someone’s scars

how much or how little they eat

what type of food they eat

the validity of a POCs experience with racism.

the validity of someones (experience with) grief

the validity of someones (experience with) mental illness

whether they’re sure about their gender/sexuality/orientation

*These things? Are none of your business. If they want to disclose something to you they will, you do not need to pry.

if you are sick of seeing blm posts, i hate to break it to you, but you need to ask yourself why. if you 'just want this to be over with', you need to ask yourself why. i'm not here to tell you what i think of you, i'm simply saying if you want this world to be a better place for everyone, you need to take part in the collapse and transformation, which always starts with you. this is never gonna be over. it never has been. it's been happening for hundreds of years. it's time we take our power back, it's time people of color can use their power freely. question your thoughts, change them, listen.

You have only one choice. The Ring must be destroyed.

What does your heart tell you?

[insomniac-dot-ink]

You can put it down now. I know you’ve been carrying this around like a martyr trying to remember God’s face by finding the bottom of punishment and burrowing to heaven through suffering. You can put it down now.

The grass does not mind. Though it may bow it’s heads under the weight, it can still accept your burdens trapped in the tar pits of your chest, the ones you’ve been told are yours alone to swallow and choke on. You can put it down now.

The waters do not mind. Though they grow darker from the sediment they can still sweep away the heaviness that you’ve trapped like shackles to your own image. Never good enough. Strong enough. Whole enough. You can put it down now.

The shadows do no mind. Though they are feared as limbs of the shrouded secret world they can still bear your many wounds and hide your face for as long as you need. It is not for weakness that they cover you, but for strength to fight another day. You can put it down now.

I do not mind. My friend, the day is long and the world is ever-changing, you are not here to shoulder it alone as if pain is the most shameful thing to witness. I do not mind your hand in mine and do not mind that we are here together and not smiling.

Rest with me awhile, show me all the ways in which you’ve grown in twisted and I’ll show you a thousand people that are better for their crooked pieces. Gardens are not beautiful for their perfection, but for the fact that they are still grasping for the sunlight after each and every winter.
