Hello fellow peeps, I just want to say thank you for everything, the patience and support y'all have been showing really helps. Even through this dark time I wish everyone is doing ok. I'm finally finding peace within myself and going through my repressed memories that have been popping up and forgiving others. As a child I was very innocent and tried to find the good in everyone and I still do, if you ever see someone in need of help I ask of you to check in on them and see if they are ok. Many tend to hide their emotions with a mask they put on it is not the best but it's what they have. I've been guilty of that, not having anyone to go to and figuring things on my own, with a war inside my mind I hid behind a smile that fouled many even family. Even if the person seems the happiest everyone goes through dark times. I ask of you to please check up on everyone you love and care during this time of quarantine. I am a high school student and for many of us school was our only escape from home. I ask that you be aware of people's mental health especially those close to you. I hope you all are taking care of yourselves and be careful, I also please be aware of what's going on; whether it's about other people or about what's happening in the world. Speak up about your opinions, what you believe in, I was taught to never speak my opinion as it would anger those around me and I was afraid to ever speak up, but with supporting friends and some family I was able to finally voice some of my opinions. Right now what's going on where I am is the Black Lives Matter movement, I am embarrassed by some family members and there actions towards my other part of my family. Everyone should be treated equally no matter what skin color, sexuality, or sex we are, we deserve to be treated respectfully and right and we will not stay silent. I stand with you, for those many that support BLM, I ask that you support this movement by donating to black owned business, peacefully protesting, signing petitions, anything you can do so we can finally get change for these people. All live will not matter until theirs do, but it's not just them I support it is also the Native American movement, their sisters and brothers have been going missing. I say that you educate yourself on these big movements including the ICE protests as no human is illegal. We want change, we will not stand the injustice towards anyone. The police are treating this and our president horribly, we are peaceful protesting we should not be hit with tear gas and rubber bullets. They have been shooting rubber bullets at these people in the face when that is not allowed, they are supposed to be shooting at the ground so that the rubber bullet will fly up and hit the person. I do not support how they are handling the situation, especially with the rubber bullets which can kill a person in close range. I do not support the tear gas, they are supposed to protect us not control us, the police don't care who you are anymore and will mace, shoot, or use force on you. I ask that if you are going to protests that you wear protection such as goggles, a mask, and something you can easily run in, carry a medical kit and milk or a solution that can help with tear gas in a spray bottle. I see you, I stand with you, and I will do whatever in my power to help you✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽✊🏼
