Peace be upon the daughter who helped her parents grow up. Accepted their cold shoulder, excused their anger, pardoned their mistakes, taught them how to be human. Peace be upon the sister who paid the price of rebellion. Screaming to her fullest, shaking like a leaf but standing tall, never letting the dictatorship go without a fight, paving the path for her siblings to breathe easier. Peace be upon the first child of an immigrant father. Aching to find their own purpose in life, firm in their own beliefs, contradicting generations and generations of cultural values. Peace be upon the girl who shouldered her mother's trauma. Swindled it into her own, morphed herself into an image of the womb she once resided in, immersed herself into troubles that weren't even hers, covered up scars that she couldn't even recognize. Peace be upon the woman who forgot who she was. So determined to be the savior of everyone, to fix her family, to nurture and love everyone around her. So deeply lost that she forgot she's just as worthy of love. Peace be upon you.

Black Transfemme needs help paying Utility. (Black History Month Request)
They charge us for below freezing temperatures. The irony is that my usual bill is $50 a month. I never turn on my A/C or heater because I KNOW I can’t afford too. I only use my A/C or heater when its either below freezing or 100 degrees. Otherwise I suffer in silence.

Everything is snowballing. I’m trying to crowdfund for my Diabetic Alert Dog. While simultaneously trying to keep my lights on.
Goal: $225

People may not tell you how they feel about you, but their actions will speak for themselves. Pay attention.

Being a writer is searching up the meaning of words you only know through context to make sure you can use it.
