Sometimes, I honestly think that my biological make-up, combined with my specific set of circumstances, and the emotional aftermath of having certain encounters with the violence in our patriarchal society, must have made believe that I must identify with the marginalized, oppressed and forgotten people more in this life then the average person seems to want to.
"They don't go away just because you act like they're not there," is what I feel like saying to some people. Even if a marginalized and oppressed person dies, their spirit lives on and might come back in another body, and other people are going to live out those destinies too. I feel like we need to embrace change as a collective to allow more different kinds of people to flourish in their lifetimes on this planet.
