I am a feminist. I reject wholeheartedly the way we are taught to perceive women. The beauty of women, how a woman should act or behave. Women are strong and fragile. Women are beautiful and ugly. We are soft-spoken and loud, all at once. There is something mind-controlling about the way we're taught to view women.

I do not accept any less than someone just as real, as fabulous!

Don't you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can't be exactly who you are.

---

Acceptance, tolerance, bravery, compassion. These are the things my mom taught me!

---

You can be whoever you choose to become in the future, just do it. Just see it and visualize it and every day of your life project that about yourself.

---

Bare your struggles very close to your heart and have them be a part of you that you’re proud of instead of something that you’re ashamed of.

---

We need fantasy to survive because reality is too difficult.

---

Peace. it does not mean to be in a place where there is no trouble, noise, or hard work. it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

---

Ignore all hatred and criticism. Live for what you create, and die protecting it.

---

Celebrate all the things you don't like about yourself. love yourself.
