“Happiness is surrounding yourself only with those who bestow their unconditional love and support.”

“This family is bound through truth and trials, the loves that compass our life, for in forgiveness, we overcome the refuge of bitterness and lies. We are sustained by compassion, and we will endure as the sun’s fusion core churns, and the darkness flees from its majesty thrown across the solar system’s expanse. It is the mysterious fusion in love that gives us our strength and powers us so.”

“Anal sex was my least favorite bedroom activity. Even through half a bottle of lube, the whole charade felt like pooping backwards. It was a negotiation token- something I begrudgingly did in exchange for backrubs and switching the television from football to Sex in the City. Anal sex was something I tolerated in order to be a cool girlfriend, because it was and still is common knowledge that that men love shoving their dicks in buttholes. Male buttholes, however, had their own rules and regulations. Everyone knew that men who allowed rectal access were gay. I didn’t question it. I didn’t analyze it. I only knew to treat the male asshole as if it had a grenade buried inside of it that could ignite a deadly explosion of anger, trauma, and sexual confusion.”
