sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.
The next president has to do two things: 1) right the wrongs of Trump and go after those who broke the law and were corrupt. 2). Then spend time divesting power from the presidency and building real guardrails and passing laws like, “the president is not immune” etc.
Oh and get the money out of politics

As a fellow Venezuelan, your story resonates deeply. The culture of victimhood can be so alluring because it offers validation without the responsibility of growth. Your journey from self-victimization to self-empowerment is inspiring, especially in a country where real suffering is undeniable. It’s refreshing to see someone embrace nuance in a world that often pushes extremes. Do you think there’s a way to help others break free from the same mindset without pushing them further into it?
I've learned that you can't force anyone to come out of any patter. What we can do is to keep writing and sharing. Having nuanced conversations with people who maybe we wouldn't have thought we could agree with and that's how it starts. If someone is willing to listen, talk to them. If not, walk away and keep showing your values through example. No sabía que eras venezolana, bella, mil gracias por leerme.
