I cannot hide my anger to spare you guilt, nor hurt feelings, nor answering anger; for to do so insults and trivializes all our efforts. Guilt is not a response to anger; it is a response to one’s own actions or lack of action. If it leads to change then it can be useful, since it is then no longer guilt but the beginning of knowledge. Yet all too often, guilt is just another name for impotence, for defensiveness destructive of communication; it becomes a device to protect ignorance and the continuation of things the way they are, the ultimate protection for changelessness.ALT

Audre Lorde, from “The Uses of Anger: Women Responding to Racism” (1981) [ID in ALT]

So many things have changed since I’ve last logged into this website.

Personal life turned upside down, extended family exiled from their homes, the world much colder & cruel.

Alhamdulillah through it all. I pray that we all see justice & experience peace in this world & the next.

The right circle of friends around you will give you the worldly support you’ll need to get through life. Regardless of how much our generation may romanticize isolation, the truth is that we were put on this planet to live in community, we were never meant to do life alone.

It is better to be alone than surrounded by the wrong people, and it’s even better to be surrounded by the right people than to be alone.
