The function, the very serious function of racism is distraction. It keeps you from doing your work. It keeps you explaining, over and over again, your reason for being. - Toni Morrison
By striving to cultivate inner peace within ourselves, we allow ourselves to embrace and express our entire emotional experiences, such as happiness, grief, and fear, without the need to conceal how we truly feel...
Back to my journal for the start of a new week. It has been a busy week since I last left off and not sure where to start.
I have been feeling pretty good about the direction I have been going and learning to open myself up and tap into the emotions that I have for so long buried.
It is a kind of uncomfortable feeling and I kind of feel exposed. I just want to close myself off from the world and protect who I am. I just don't want anyone to ridicule or judge me negatively!!!
The ADHD (Adderall) medications seem to help with that. I just go out and I don't have any worries. It could also be that it is allowing me to be more task driven so I don't even dwell much into my paranoia.
I will keep it short tonight as I don't have much to get off my chest and it is going to be a long day for me.
My journey continues...
"The only true limitation is the one you set for yourself."
