When my grandfather died, they forced my grandmother to kneel before my father because he was the first son.
They drove her out of her own home until my father gave permission for her to return(because suddenly, the house was declared his)

Not the kneeling.
Not the eviction.
Not the humiliation disguised as tradition.

That voice in your head, telling don’t go, listen to it, it might save your life.
i realized that a lot of adults are healing their inner child and that's one of the reasons why i don't make fun of people who have "childish" hobbies. Some people didn't get to have a childhood until they became adults.
Some of you pay school fees, medical bills, or give huge loans and grants to total strangers here, and you do it out of the goodness of your hearts.
I just want to tell you that life will be kind to you and all you hold dear, whether you like it or not.
