"When someone projects expectations onto me because of who they think I am... and expects and depends me to be someone I'm not going to be because of that... I stand firm and kind and let it drop at my feet. I don't owe anyone anything that is not the real me." - RR, friend of JT, via Facebook
I hope, pray, dream that my children will always feel free to be their authentic selves. I hope that if somebody wants to oppress them with a warped vision of who they are, that they will have the wisdom to recognize it as a false image and the courage to walk away...even if the oppressor is me.
