spending half of your life repressing your wants and needs just for the sake of keeping everyone else happy is really going to turn you into a resentful person who hates the world and wants nothing to do with it
do something. anything. even something that feels mundane is a step towards something even better. but your worst enemy is always going to be yourself and you have to be your own pillar no matter what. no matter the set backs. no matter if life is moving at 25mph and not 80.
not that I've come from absolutely nothing but taking life by its horns is what living is, and you have to create every single one of your opportunities if you weren't born with a silver spoon on your tongue. what the hell is a puerto rican girl going to do in kentucky? something
anyone else feeling like they're a filler person who is just not meant for big things. like getting a good job or moving to live abroad is always just a distant dream cause despite planning it you feel like your life is just not meant to have big changes in it. anyone.
Racism is why America canโt have a revolution. Most white Americans will look at a group of black people protesting issues that affect them too, and condemn them as โviolentโ, yet with the same eyes, see white college kids rioting after a sporting game, and call it mischief.
