The worst thing that can happen to a human is to be a woman stuck in Afghanistan under Taliban rule.
Your education is banned. Your voice is silenced. Your future is stolen.
Yet Afghan girls still dream, still resist, and still refuse to disappear.
A society that fears educated women fears its own future.
Stand with Afghan women. Their human rights are not negotiable. #GenderApartheid #HumanRights #LetAfghanGirlsLearn
@recovery_your Everything will be ok Lorraine, it is totally normal to be a little nervous or with some little difficulty, but at the end you will got this 🙌🏾
La idea de que siempre hay que estar bien, pasarlo bien, ser feliz, exitoso es la gran farsa de Occidente. Eso es imposible, nadie lo ha logrado ni lo va a lograr. La felicidad consiste en hacer la voluntad de Dios. Ello requiere construir desde nuestra fragilidad e imperfecciones. Por eso, la propuesta de Cristo es imbatible, y la vida de María insuperable.
Imposible no emocionarse con la tristeza infinita de Juan Luis Ossa por la muerte de su hija Violeta de 14 años. Es q es muy contranatura q no sean los hijos quienes lloren la partida de sus padres. Un abrazo fuerte a los papás y a la abuela Lucía
Depression is,nt just sadness.
It’s hating yourself.
Having no motivation to do ANYTHING .
Never being able to sleep.
Struggling to get out of bed.
Knowing you have stuff to do.
But can’t do it.
Ignoring hunger.
Forgetting about self care.
Depression isn’t always sadness.
It’s quite telling that as August marks half a decade since the Taliban’s return, they’ve successfully achieved their interests on their terms.
The world could not achieve a single diplomatic solution, not one, for women and girls.
5 years banned from school.
Afghan woman rights activist protested against Taliban child marriage:
“They are dressing me as a bride. An old bride. They have blindfolded my eyes and silenced my voice. But my heart is still screaming. I am a child, not a wife. Let me live. Let me breathe.”
The Taliban has codified child marriage into law, permitting the forced marriage of girls as young as 9 years old. Independent Women condemns this horrific act.

Since when did the UK start calling members of the Taliban leadership “Ministers”? Has the UK recognised the Taliban regime as the government of Afghanistan?
And to post this in a week when the “child marriage” of little girls has been legalised makes it even more shameful.
I honestly don’t get what the UN’s “grave concern” is going to do for the girls of Afghanistan. The Taliban just legalised that a girl as young as 9 can be “married.” It’s a crime against humanity, slavery, rape and all you can say is “grave concern”? Sickening.
@hoyer_kat This is so sad, and I think it is so hard to realize that it still happen today, for example, with women in Afganisthan, they are in great pain and almost no one really care about it
Stay humble. You can seem like a millionaire to one person and a homeless person to the next. The ants think you are a giant, and the trees don't even notice you. You think you have a boring life, but the next person might be in love with your lifestyle. Don't compare. Ever. Everything is apple and oranges. Comparison is the thief of joy. Stay humble. And just be gareful for what you have. Life is just a big game of perspective.
''Girls are being raped. Not metaphorically. Not as legal shorthand. The day their bodies bleed for the first time, they will be made pregnant by a man four, five, or six times their age, and their small bodies tell the rest. Thirty-two per cent of deaths for Afghan girls aged 15 to 19 are pregnancy-related and Afghanistan's maternal mortality rate is among the world's highest, 521 deaths per 100,000 live births.'' - Writes @NasimiShabnam
