On Healing
“My google search told me that when a wound heals, the new skin is only 80% as strong. This means it’s more vulnerable to being broken open again.”
My body, my life.
“Who knew a little unbounded sensual self-touch could lead to such liberty?”
How I Feel About Birthdays
I hate birthdays. Or to be more precise, I hate the feeling birthdays give me. Most especially, I hate my own birthday.
"I need to see my own beauty and to continue to be reminded that I am enough, that I am worthy of love without effort, that I am beautiful, that the texture of my hair and that the shape of my curves, the size of my lips, the color of my skin, and the feelings that I have are all worthy and okay."
