2018

This new year, place yourself where you can grow and learn.

Place yourself where you feel safe.

Place yourself where you feel comfortable.

Place yourself with people that make it feel like home.

Place yourself where you can help, but don’t let it drain you.

Place yourself where you feel loved, but don’t let it change you.

Place yourself where you can listen, but don’t let it overwhelmed you.

Place yourself where you belong, but don’t let anyone take advantage of you.

This new year place yourself where you can grow and learn; not anywhere where you’re devalued.

Do you understand me?

Do you understand me?

Do you know the pain I hold inside?

Taken advantage of, my childhood destroyed.

Life came along, and robbed me of all I’ve ever loved.

In several ways I could have went out, too many to count.

I was a fool, but I couldn’t seem to figure me out.

I couldn’t figure life out, suffocating in the pain and the substances is all I knew.

Do you understand me?

I don’t understand you.

No one ever will.

Because only you know what you’ve felt.

And what you have dealt with, you’ve never shared it.

I see your sorrow though, and I can feel it.

I see your pain, and where they’ve robbed you.

I see what life has done to you.

I know you’re lost, I see your hurt, I know that I can get a call and just like that you’ll be gone.

I don’t understand you,

but I feel for you…

because I see you.

De un lugar 

Me siento nostalgia, de un lugar que ni estoy segura si existe? Tengo un sufrimiento que no se ni de que es, ni de que se trata; solo sé que aquí permanece… extrañando la felicidad de ese lugar. 

Uno donde mi corazón está lleno, mi cuerpo y único ser es amado, mi personalidad es apreciada y entendida, y donde mi alma se siente entera.

It’s about…

It’s about what you do to live; to feel alive and actually be present. It’s about making life beautiful for others, and touching lives with your kindness and love.
It’s about unity, humbling down and understanding that you might not be able to walk in someone’s path but, you can give them a pair of shoes to make that walk easier.
It’s about giving those in need the clothes that was once on your back, sharing the bread the lord has blessed you with, or simply being a helping hand.
It’s about seeing that every time we unite, the universe changes; every time we reach out and touch a heart or a life, the world changes.
It’s about kindness, because with every kindness and service, seen or unseen, you are truly living and not just existing.

I am the daughter of an immigrant 

I am the daughter of an immigrant.

I am the prayers she whispered as she crossed and left her country.

I am the pursuit of happiness that led her to the unfamiliar.

I am the sacrifice she made as she dealt with betrayal, abuse, and discrimination.

I am the encouragement that didn’t let her give up when in frustration, as she struggled with her tongue because she didn’t speak the “native” language.

I am the voice she didn’t have when belittled and forced to be silent due to fear and embarrassment.

I am the hope for that dream; that better life she chased that was supposed to be on the other side.

I am the daughter of an immigrant, and its my job to represent her with pride.
