As a Black woman, I am deeply uninterested in spending the second half of my life proving how much I can endure.
I would like to explore how much joy I can hold.
no one is more whimsical and optimistic than the people who have had to fight and claw their way out of dark places and learn to trust life enough to be silly and joyful.
At some point I just stopped checking messages, email, and DMs. I stopped answering the phone. I stopped being available to every non-essential person, place or thing. Find someone else to dump your shit on, to vent to. I’m tapped out.
use whatever the fuck you have. looks, genetics, talent, connections, money, all of it.
there's nothing noble about choosing the hardest path just to feel like an underdog.
