I love my body so much. So many women are afraid to love themselves. They put their lives on hold so they can work to obtain a goal that society has set. I will not wait to live. I’m living and loving myself right now. So when I grab my belly I grab it for the woman who is still struggling with loving herself. I grab it for the teenage girl getting teased. I grab it for the girl with bulimia. I grab it for the people who will shame me. I grab it for the societal norms that have women afraid to live! #beyondbeauty #wearyourvoice #stopbodyshaming #stopbullying

White people, this is your legacy. This is the ruination your demonic actions have left behind. This is what your privilege is built upon.

I asked God “why do you still love me, why after all the things I’ve done you still want my heart?” He answered me “I made you for me. And as long as you let me, I will save you from yourself.”

I want to learn to read braille so that I can read in bed at night when my eyes are too heavy to stay open.

When I can’t follow a conversation my community is having about me

[howapcvputsitgently]

When HCNs are talking so fast and you can’t understand anything.

[howapcvputsitgently]

When the local grandmas ask me questions, and I don’t understand anything

When I run out of care package food

I want to be politically informed and educated but I also wanna have a good day and be in a good mood. Do you see my problem?
