More and more I am realizing that the genocide of the Palestinians is not unique. We’re not “special” in anyway. In 2009 there was the Tamil genocide in Sri Lanka. Till this day, their suffering is not recognised by the international community or even classified as a genocide.
Really heartbreaking to hear about @pyrawy. She was an outspoken and unapologetic voice for Eelam Tamils. I admired her resilience and her honesty.
Rest in peace sister ❤️💛
your relationship with discipline changes so much when you shift from doing things from love rather than shame. from ‘i have to clean’- to realizing i deserve to have a clean home. from ‘i need to work out’- to i deserve to have a healthy body. you deserve the best from yourself
