I am many things to many different people. I am Mom, Grandma, Wife, Sister, Daughter, Friend, Teacher, Student, Child of God….and many more.
I claim this title I have never really considered before. I learned it at a very young age and never questioned the thoughts actions or words that went along with it.
I am racist. I have been racist.
I have spoken racist words.
I have thought racist thoughts.
I have taken racist actions.
I want to be not racist. I am actively anti-racism.
Times change…. we get new information… we learn….. we make realizations…. just like time, we too can change. I am sad for anyone that may have been the target of my hard ignorant heart and words. I am owning it and learning to shift. It is a process of self inquiry….please be patient with me as I make progress every day.
Yoga is there with me every step along the way. Not judging me and reminding me and leading me always on the path to healing.
