I'm not the one

18 inviernos girando al rededor del sol, pero llueve dentro y fuera. Marta Minujín grita ARTE, ARTE, ARTE. Yo grito con ella. Veró es el personaje estelar, y a veces el personaje se come al autor.

A white woman can say that a neighborhood is ‘sketchy’ and most people will smile and nod. She felt unsafe, and we automatically trust her opinion. A black man can tell the world that every day he lives in fear of the police, and suddenly everyone demands statistical evidence to prove that his life experience is real.

Candice Lanius, “Fact Check: Your Demand for Statistical Proof is Racist”

One of many incredible examples of why feminism MUST be intersectional.

You are always fixing things. But what is this, my love? A crack in the ceiling. A faulty pilot light. A keyhole in my sternum that opens to an ocean of doubt. I stared into your chest last night as if it were a telescope. I saw our future in the distance, an island I will not swim to. I have eaten my own legs. I have cut my own stitches. My love: you cannot fix what wants to be bro- ken.

4/30: “I have justified horrible things to feel loved. Done and endured.” This photo was taken in 2003 by my first boyfriend in high school for his photography class. As our relationship was my first, it is the earliest record I have of some of the behavior explained below: . Although Twos have strong feelings for others, they have potential problems with their feelings. They tend to overexpress how positively they feel about others, while ignoring their negative feelings altogether. They see themselves as loving, caring people, yet all too often they love others only to have others love them in return. Their “love” is not free: expectations of repayment are attached. Twos are often hampered in their ability to truly love others because their self-image is highly invested in having only certain positive feelings for people, and not having other, “unpleasant” feelings. . Healthy Twos, however, are the most considerate and genuinely loving of all the personality types. Because they have strong feelings and sincerely care about others, they go out of their way to help people, doing real good and serving real needs. But if they become unhealthy, Twos deceive themselves about the presence and extent of their own emotional needs as well as their aggressive feelings, not recognizing how manipulative and domineering they can be. As we shall see, unhealthy Twos are among the most difficult of the personality types because they are extremely selfish in the name of utter selflessness. They can do terrible harm to others while believing that they are completely good. . The essence of the problem is that even average Twos cannot see themselves as they really are, as persons of mixed motives, conflicting feelings, and personal needs which they want to fulfill. Instead, they see themselves only in the most glowing terms, ignoring their negative qualities as they gradually become self-deceptive. [Enneagram Institute.] . #earningthirty
