I Want To Apologize (#METOO)

I want to apologize to all the women I have called pretty before I’ve called them intelligent or brave.

I am sorry I made it sound as though something as simple as what you’re born with is the most you have to be proud of when your spirit has crushed mountains.

From now on I will say things like you are resilient or you are extraordinary.

Not because I don’t think you’re pretty but because you are so much more than that.
-Rupi Kaur

Why make an account?

Because why use any of your precious brain cells to remember where you kept those great readings that you’ll use someday at Jeffrey’s B Mitzvah? Make an account, keep the readings there. Easy peasy. The only thing you’ll need to remember is your password, and from personal experience that’s hard enough.
