@MandyJ

My heart goes out to you as I have a son who is incarcerated now.
He’s well beyond your years but still, having a child in prison was
never anything I wished for. His situation affects mine and is a part
of the reason why I’m here. I hope things are better for you now.

That's great for you, Mandy! As things stand now, he won't be in long-term but
that he's there at all and this his second felony conviction, never was something
I'd ever have imagined for him as a child. I hope that if he ever goes again or for
any longer term that I'm gone from this earth before then. Good luck to you! 🤗🍀

Guess.
My mum will always be so casually racist to me, no matter how hard I try to explain to her that she’s offending me and damaging me… 😔

She shouldn't be racist at all, but especially not to you. You don't deserve that, and that's unacceptable parenting on her behalf, there's no excuse for that.

I learned that romantic love does not exist the way that I thought it did.
Plot Twist: I survived the impact.
Thinking I should change my name to Lou. Lou Seafur.

I learned 98% of life’s lessons the hard way.
Hard Knocks University advanced studies enrollee.

Yeah, that’d be me, I guess. Still learning more.

Just remember when you're ignoring someone that loves you, you're teaching them to live without you.
