A few years back Gabes Torres (@ gabestorres on Insta, she is an amazing writer, organizer, and careworker, go give her a follow/support her work if you can!) posted these incredible affirmations she wrote on Instagram and I used to say them every morning. I recently went back to doing it. They really ground me in the work that I do every day and help me dream about a new world.
- “May I love in ways that devastatingly disrupt organized state violence.” - “May I hope in ways that stand in direct and fervent opposition against white cis hetero patriarchy.” - “May I rest and play in ways that trouble and tremble the forces and figures that exploit and capitalize on the fear of lack.” - “May I create and strategize in ways that destroy pipelines [I also add “and prisons”], the legacy of the rich and of landlords, and the passive illusion that we don’t have what it takes to do so.” - “May I write, sing, speak—communicate in ways that invite you to become a student of a new world—where we count on each other for safety, resources, accountability. Where all are free.”

I make a digital collage at the end of each month to show what I was up to, it’s a great creative outlet and gives me time to reflect on all the good things happening in life. Here’s some pieces of some past collages :)

coconut milk coconut oil (2 tbsp) matcha collagen peptides stevia or glycine as sweetener
