“Trees grow stronger in response to the wind, and their roots grow deeper. This moment in history may feel like it’s planted in the path of a category 5 hurricane. It has ripped us up, but it has also rooted us, weaving us together beneath the surface of the ground and leaving us stronger than ever. We can grieve the loss while, at the same time, falling madly in love with what it has mobilized in us: caring, grace, companionship, openness, and uncensored, outspoken truth-telling. Dying can teach us a great deal about living.”

“Happiness is two-hour long baths during an energy crisis because it's fantastically irresponsible and fabulous for your soul. Happiness is fresh Spanish perfume on your collarbone and sipping ice-cool Caipirinhas with fun people whilst Mariah Carey's 'Babydoll' plays in the background on a booming system. Happiness is never giving a fuck about becoming fat because you will always fuck, and instead enjoying delicious, deeply satisfying suya and switching your phone off for a whole weekend. Happiness is bad bitches who no longer front like insanity is not festering on every floor of the Western Promise and finally stop giving a fuck. That's happiness.”

“How much are we allowed to change our bodies while still being body positive? Does that amount of change decrease if we call ourselves part of the fat acceptance movement? Does the community get to vote you out if you go over a line? Where is the line? Does a group of people on a social media platform count as a community?”
