Existing and Resisting

As long as there is a breath in my body, I shall not cease to be a thorn in the side of those who would prevent others from being who they want to be, or denying the rights of others to live as they choose, or spreading hatred and fear of our fellow humans instead of love and understanding.

There is a quote I often come back to as a guiding principle: “Who you want to be is who you should be.”

Those who would claim to espouse personal freedom cannot in the same breath say that the choices people make with that personal freedom are invalid or make them less than human.

“Who you want to be is who you should be.” Full stop, end of story.
