I feel like I am an empath. I can see or hear something and I feel it deep in my soul. Tonight, scrolling thru tik-tok, there was a video of a black man being handcuffed. It was an aggressive take down, he wasn't resisting. What struck me was him screaming out "I CAN'T BREATHE!" as an officer was pushing on his neck. He looked like he passed out for a little bit. That poor man, they thought he had a gun...he had his phone in his pocket.
It's shit like that, it will put me in the weird head space. I feel like I could cry, yell, or a combo of the both. Then, I self loathe and feel like crap because I could go out and do something about this. Instead of feeling sorry for myself.
*sigh*
A change is coming. I can feel it. I am not afraid or weary of this change, I feel it will be for the better. My bleeding heart wants to save everyone and make things right, fair, and just in the world.
