This morning my daughter told me that she is happy to be alive and that she is glad I am her mother. Then a few minutes ago she told me she wants to be my mother in her next life. I teasingly asked if she would be a nice mother. She looked at me very seriously and said, “I would be just like you! The best mama!”
So anyway I will be riding this high for the rest of my life.
I'm a big fan of the "GPS Theory" when you miss a turn, your GPS doesn't judge you, it recalculates. No matter how many detours you take, it finds another way forward. Life works like that too. You'll make mistakes, but your destination doesn't vanish. The route just changes.
Europe spent 400 years using slave labour in colonies to build its wealth, rebranded this extraction model in the 20th century and somehow its citizens still believe their social conditions are a result of some superior intellect rather than inhuman violence.
read a quote that said “if you’re persistent, you’ll get it. if you’re consistent, you’ll keep it. and if you’re grateful, you’ll attract more of it.” and I’m very much in love with it.
And they have the gall to criticise the feminists all day but there’s never a pim on femicide, domestic violence and all of the ills misogyny brings. Theyl spend their days criticising women, but they’ll never speak about the suffering men inflict
Thinking about how in barbie land where everything is perfect for women, men still aren't suffering. they aren't in servitude, they aren't being objectified or harassed. they are just not the main characters. but in a world run by and for men, women are NEVER safe. that's the difference between feminists and misogynists. women just want to be left alone, while men don't see us as humans.
