Happy reading
the year of consistency
I do take solace in the fact that God is always ready to forgive me as long as I come clean to him, but I wish I was as welcoming to myself as God is with me.

have you seen antebellum yet?
Of course I am very proud. I just wish life would move forward for all of us because being comfortable in our own skin is something we all would love.
