Yes, beautiful. Really beautiful to me.
Why? Because these are some dark and shitty times we're living in, brothers and sisters. It's easy, EASY to give up and forget that part inside you that burned for justice, for something higher. That's KID SHIT, when we grow up, we get with the PROGRAM, right?
But you know, I have 3 kids and you learn a lot from kids. Kids actually don't change much as they get older. Their personalities stay the same, but what's in there can change. They can give up, give in to the weights and pressures to the perceived reality, to they POWERLESSNESS in the face of it all.
OR
Some of them don't. Like my daughter who literally inspires me. She's magic I tell you. It's her strength. She stands like a rock until the things that LOOKED solid start to bend around the justice and reality SHE demands. She is bisexual and the strongest feminist I know and has taught me a lot. But mostly what she has taught me is that you don't give in. Maybe, just maybe she learned that from me. She says she did.
But you all, you don't give in either. You're grabbing that spark of hope, and you're making that reality bend around you too. Don't be fucking pragmatic. Reality is just what is forced on others by the strongest and most determined.
You ALL know what is right and you are going for it. However this works out, keep with it. Stay strong. That false reality will show itself for what it was. Just scenery, We are the makers of reality. Let's stay strong. Be strong together.
THAT'S why you're all so fucking beautiful.
