An Australian morning show decided to interview possibly the most xenophobic, Islamaphobic, pathetic excuse for a human being politician in the wake of the attacks on Paris. I’m so angry. How is that responsible journalism?? It is fuelling hatred. Pauline Hanson does not speak for me, but I’m genuinely concerned and disgusted by the multitudes of comments across the internet saying otherwise.

Girls fuck the same dick 50 times it doesn’t matter. Girls fuck 50 different dicks and their vagina has stretched into a black hole. Fuckboy logic.

10 Things I had to learn by myself (my mother never taught me): i. Blame the person who hurts you, not yourself. Never blame yourself for not being what they wanted or not being “good enough.” You are made with perfectly flawed traits, stitched together to be loved unconditionally. ii. Not everyone you love will love you back and the people who do love you, you won’t always reciprocate the feelings. But that doesn’t make them or you a bad person. You can’t love everyone and not everyone will love you. I refuse to blame the people that can’t find it in their soul to give me what I give them. I don’t give to get back. I give because I want to and because I can. iii. Don’t let one person tell you negative things about yourself. One opinion out of a million does not make you who you are. No one paints a masterpiece for you, you are the art piece. You make who you are. You are the artist. iv. Don’t ever settle. People always feel safer with things that they are used to and comfortable with instead of seeking for the heart pounding feelings and moments that take their breaths away. I never want it to be easy; I want it to be hard to breathe and suffocating when I give something my all. I want to learn how to survive through that. v. Learn how to say no. No, I do not want to dance with you. No, I do not want to kiss you. No, I do not want to date you. No, I do not want to do this. No, I do not want to do that. Because that does not make me happy and that does not make me feel comfortable, so no. And I don’t need to give you a reason nor do I need to make up an excuse to say “no.” vi. There are different kinds of people. Don’t always catergorize people in groups because people are not meant to be labelled. Just because one person hurts you, does not mean the ones in the future will. Just because one person holds a knife doesn’t mean the next one will use it. There is good out there; there is good in the world and there is good in people. Not everyone is a monster. I strongly believe that majority of the population is good. vii. Do not let the past prevent you from living in the future. Do not let the pain and hurt take over. Don’t close yourself up to others just because you have been broken before. Never allow the demons of yesterday to control the beauty that is to come in the future. Vow to never allow it to always be stormy for the sun does eventually shine down on all things beautiful. I am beautiful, and so are you. viii. You can swim across the world for someone but they might not even step outside in the drizzle for you. Even if you hold the umbrella for them. ix. Never give someone the power to rid you of yourself. Don’t ever fall out of your routine or lose who you are permanently. That is so important. x. Love yourself. Learn to love the birthmark on your face, the chipmunk cheeks, the thighs that jiggle when you walk, the nose you think is too flat, and your fingers that are too short. Learn to appreciate your almond shaped eyes, your skin color, the thin hair that doesn’t grow fast, the beauty mark above your lips, and the small gap between your teeth. Learn to love your sense of humor, your laughter, your emotions, your tendency to trust easily, and how happy you always are. Learn to love the way you love others deeply, how you sometimes fear being lonely, the way you enjoy walks alone, and the radiance in your soul. Learn to love yourself at 3AM when you cannot sleep and can only think of the skeletons hiding in your own closets and learn to love yourself at 3PM when you are cranky and unable to get out of bed. Learn to love yourself and come to terms with the fact that you are you, and that will never change.

Dear Father-in-law,

Your son loves you. He has loved you from the moment you first held him, the moment he first heard your voice and from the moment he gazed into your eyes. He has loved you for 22 years, this Sunday.

He is a good man. He is a hard worker and he loves his job. He is ambitious. He is honest. He is supportive. He is kind. He is loyal.

Your son is intelligent. He is wise. Your son in humorous. He is responsible. He is educated. He is quick-witted. He is thoughtful. He is sensible. He is strong-willed. Your son is logical. He is perceptive and he is clever.

Your son is stubborn. He is bold. He is critical. Your son in unconventional. He is careful. Your son is guarded.

Your son is the love of my life. He is compassionate and smart. And he loves his family. They are his favourite people in this world. 

Your son is a good man. Your son loves you. And it is this love that keeps me awake tonight. Because your son is hurting.

Your son remembers you. Your son remembers your love. Your son hurts.

He is angry. Of course, I'm sure many would be, but he affords you his kindness. He is kind to you. It is a kindness i do not wish to understand, and it is one i could never afford to you.

He remembers when you left. He remembers the new life you created. He remembers how you made him feel. He remembers you and it hurts.

Your son remembers your new family. He remembers the times you saw him and turned your head away without a sign of hello. He remembers. He still feels it everyday.

Yet he still affords you his kindness, his compassion. He affords you his love.

Not a day goes by where he forgets these feelings.

These feelings carried us across the country to you. Where he gave you an option that should not have been yours, to see him again. He needed to see you. Your son needed to have a conversation with you. Just once more in his life he needed to see you. But you ignored us.

We drove by your house. Three times. He was scared. He could not stop and walk to your front door. He couldn't violate your home like that. On our last day, we went by your house again. He had worked up the courage to stop but he saw his new brothers on the lawn and he did not want to ruin their childhood like his had been ruined. Do they know they have a grown brother and sister? A niece and nephew? Do you know you have grandchildren?

Your son is hurting. He is hurting because he loves you.

Your son blames himself. He blames his six-year-old self for your mistakes. He blames his eight-year-old self for you ceasing contact with them. He blames his twelve-year-old self for not walking up to you in that shopping centre. He blames his twenty-one-year-old self for not having the courage to see you for what could be his last chance.

He awards you his kindness, his love and puts the anger on himself.

Your son is a good man. He is someone who i wish you would have stuck around for. His pain will stay with him, you should know.

In some way I hope this reaches you. Because I know you will know I'm talking to you. You will know that your actions had a consequence. You will know that not a day has gone by in the last 14 years that your son has not hurt. You will know that he still loves you. And you will know that it affects every part of his life.

And you should know, at least, that you've missed out one an extraordinary person because you are the one who should feel his pain.

Your daughter-in-law
