To you, my son, trying to find your place. And to the village I’m building for you.
I know what it feels like. That deep yearning to be accepted, included, celebrated… even at the cost of who you are. I was that child too...
A love letter to my 10-year-old. A letter of resistance, too. To tell him that his desire for belonging is valid. And that what I’m building for him, this village, these choices, these acts of resistance, are not walls, but shelters. Because raising a conscious child in this world is already a political act.

Forever (Netflix): A Tender Legacy of Love and Growth
A love letter to a show, to our children, to ourselves.
Some shows we watch.
Others, they live in us.
Forever is one of those rare series that doesn’t just tell a story. It sees you. It touches you, it holds you gently, and it reminds you that you're not alone. Your experiences matter. And above all, you deserve to be seen with tenderness.
