Oh you beautiful soul.
Don't let the world get you down. I hope the walk helped <3
" If you close your eyes to facts, you will learn through accidents." - African Proverbs
Master Ugwe would say "There are no accidents".
And I'd have to agree, you know.
Closing your eyes to the facts is a choice at the end of the day :D
I just Googled his name for some reason - Ugwe translates as "Cord" in English. Lovely, isn't it? The knowledge that binds us.
There are no weak women in the world, btw. You can't walk in this world in the body of a woman and not be strong. It's not possible. I think we underestimate ourselves far too much!
You are very powerful! 💥
Life would strike the right cord if people in power had a brain not to close their eyes to the facts around them. Woman in power can be just as wicked as the men, both have strengths yet sway toward greed.
People need to talk to each other, work toward the change they wish to see not pontificate possible outcomes, it is the poor who feel the abject poverty.
Also... I'd like to drop a comment here for my beautiful daughter if she ever makes her way over here...
That I'm so sorry I never "saw" or understood male privilege at all and she suffered so badly because of my ignorance. And our family's ignorance.
And I thought I was "liberated", "educated" and "woke".
My bad... :(
I totally unconsciously allowed her to get hurt because of this as well. Before I knew better. I simply thought some stuff was "normal" and never even thought to question it further :/
Equality without accounting for inequality is not equality at all. Take the hungry child at school vs the well fed as one example... this becomes very clear. <3

Hopefully you will get to sit and talk this out, obviously something that needs to be addressed together.
