“We can’t change what our mothers or fathers or step parents were like or what demons or gods ruled them or when they died or how. We can only change who we are in relation to them. We can revise how we narrate those stories of our lives.”

Cheryl Strayed (“Sugar”) might not technically be a therapist, but she’s been doing some of the most wonderful therapy anywhere on the planet over the past couple of years through her Dear Sugar column over at The Rumpus. If you somehow haven’t read her columns yet, you should definitely go and do so right now. You might lose several hours of your day/life in the archives, but I promise you it will be time well spent.

I love Dear Sugar so much
also adding Matthew Gray Gubler to my list of inspirational people was probably one of my better decisions because now my feed thing is filled with his face. it is amazing.

(backstory: my high school mascot was the “Indians”, the school board voted to change it, finally, and a lot of people who are white are upset)
I saw this and I was like oh god you can just shut. up. jesus this video is inevitable in any discussion of racism. so embarrassing.
