        It’s why they got demoted from family to simply relatives

        Family is the relationship, relatives are blood

        Family doesn’t treat me like they did

        Finally getting away and being able to be me was bliss.

        It was like stepping into the dawn and feeling the sun hit your face after a long cold night. The shivers that go through your body as the cold leaves your body.

        The shaking breaths as the fresh air hits your lungs.

        And the sadness for others still stuck in the darkness. Those afraid that the new day will be as dark as the old night. Those who are trapped still unable to breathe the air of freedom.

        And for them I still dip into the shadows, so that I may show them the light. For without someone showing me the light I would have never gone through the pain to step out for myself.

    Yeah, becoming unacceptable is a good way to open yourself up to violence, abuse and corruption of the legal system itself just to get rid of you. Becoming unacceptable opens yourself up to getting killed for no good reason. The people around you have the power to collectively decide you need to go, and to remove you, at any time and for any reason, and they will subvert their own laws to do it… remember the lockdowns if you don’t believe me.

    I don’t care if it’s hypocritical of me to say. It’s the truth. People are no-good monsters to be feared specifically for that reason.
