Now, at 31 years old, I'm where you were at 26. While I don't see things improving for myself anytime soon, I'm glad to have stuck around long enough to see things get better for the people I care about. I'm so impressed by your commitment to becoming a future elder and I'm so happy for you and the life you're creating. Thank you for sharing 🤍

This was truly beautiful and moving. Thank you for sharing your humanity and vulnerability in contrast to a system that demands we give those things up
