On the eve of my departure...




Love and Hate


In terms of association, the men I have spent 80% of the last five weeks with are not good for my soul.


Why?


Because they have shown me that I cannot tolerate racism, sexism, and condescension, and therefore, have been depleting my spirit.


In terms of recognition, the men I have spent 80% of the last five weeks with are fantastic for my soul.


Why?


Because they have shown me that I am judgemental, that I have my own cross to carry, that I am adaptable in difficult circumstances, and therefore, have been strengthening my spirit.



I want to hate them but choose to love them.

i think the choice you decide to make at the end is sharp, you go from one side to end on the other side
i use to do the same but i don't like it

I think it's a case of whenever you depart, you take something with you, but it's only you that chooses what it is.
