When you think no one is listening....
I love my S girls, they're a group of amazing women who have made such an impact on my life. Their power, energy, and just pure awesomeness always astound me. Whenever we get together we always delve deeper into our history, our emotions, what we're feeling, things we're going through, things that have shaped us into the women we are today. We are each other support system and its like nothing I've ever experience.
Tonight we talked about finding our voice and certain life experiences that stilled our voice and it felt so good to finally be able to verbalize the shit I was going through with my parents. I was finally able to speak my frustration, my hurt, my anger, my annoyance without judgment, without being told that I'm over-reacting, without having my feelings dismissed.
We all come from different races(I'm the only black girl in our class), different class in life but we've at some point, walked the same path and we're able to share our feelings and experiences and find a common ground with each other. We shared a lot tonight, our hurts, our joys, we talked about the people we loved who helped silenced our voices and how we are slowly learning to find our voice when everyone wants us to be quiet and play along.
I didn't realized how much I love being on this journey with them.
They make my world a little brighter.
