We & other NGOs are trying really hard to fill the gaps left by government. The problem is that the devastation is so much worse than anybody understands. As a Louisiana born and bred organization, we hate when people compare weather events to #katrina , but this absolutely compares at every level.
A reminder that you belong in this world.
There is a place for you. You’re meant to take up space.
Feeling like you don’t matter is a lie because you do matter. Trust me on this.
The world is better because you are in it.
I’m rooting for you 💕
I’m more than my mental health diagnoses. I’m more than what I’ve been through. I share my stories because I am not trapped by them, but because I want to show others they can liberate themselves too.
I am not a victim of my past, but a survivor. If you can’t see past what someone’s been through, you are trapped in your own cage. It’s not mine.
May you find courage to face what comes and what you’re bringing from your past into your present. A reminder: we are stronger than what we face, there is beauty in our battles and strength in our storms.
Happy Friday 🌸
