You are completely, 100% right and it's amazing how much of what you wrote is what my mother and I were just discussing, after she read my blog post. And the offer to crash is beyond amazing! I miss NYC so much! <3 It's funny how we take things for granted, like living close enough to NYC that I could hop on the Metronorth for a quick day trip. Maybe I am a northeast gal after all lol!Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14623332204339129728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9209676174513114077.post-60101781504737592772015-06-22T16:12:00.413-04:002015-06-22T16:12:00.413-04:00The most important thing right now is for you to t...The most important thing right now is for you to take care of you. Get your head in order and figure out your next steps. You cannot be an effective activists if you are not advocating for mental health first. Once you have that in order (none of us ever have it figure out - we are all just making this shit up as we go along), then work towards social change. But, we must never forget: SILENCE = DEATH<br /><br />As for living in The South, it only has to be a temporary measure to get you moving ahead again. I feel the same when I go visit my parents in the Midwest where they moved to; there is a lot of homophobia, racism, and sexism. We are at a tipping point culturally, but we must never lose hope!<br /><br />And, you are ALWAYS welcome to come crash here at my place of you need to get to NYC, without hesitation! Seriously, let me know and thy will be done! ;)<br /><br />Love you!Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00804010111361227265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9209676174513114077.post-80912705762227138562015-06-22T13:55:05.803-04:002015-06-22T13:55:05.803-04:00Thanks hon! <3Thanks hon! <3Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14623332204339129728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9209676174513114077.post-60530540872554479872015-06-22T13:54:55.352-04:002015-06-22T13:54:55.352-04:00Thank you!
