I believe you cannot be passionate about one cause over the other, and that is why I’m passionate about life and all living things!

When I was a little kid, I moved around a lot. I literally went to 10 different elementary schools. No matter where I was, I was treated differently because of my skin color. I was bullied from from all races, including my own. This made me realize how important SELF LOVE is!

Think about it.

When you truly love yourself, you don’t have it in you to display hate towards another.

With the issues we have in the world today, rather if its a humanity, animal, or how we treat the world issue, we all need to do better to be better. It is crazy to witness all the pain and confusion the world still has, considering all the time we’ve been here. We’ve advanced in some ways, but we still have a lot of work to do.

The social movements, such as BLM, Stop Asian Hate, LGBTQ/LGBTQA, anti-bullying, animal rights movement, and non-violence, are some of many I pay attention to. I believe if you come from a place of love and compassion, you’ll clearly see the issues we have and that we all have a part to make it better. These issues are often ignored, especially if you’re not a part of the those communities. However, we are all human, and if you are nonchalant about it, then you are a part of the issues we have right now.

Self love is a start, because if you do the work you’d be able to love and have compassion for other living things, no matter if they are different from you. My passion for self love comes from all of the hate we have in the world, and the more love we have the more we can spread it.

Do your part to love yourself more, find the compassion to understand and release to others, and stop the hate.

Hate can come from fear, and fear can come from ignorance. We have the power to change the narrative, but you can’t be afraid to be different.
