Passing the words of our elders along for a young trans girl, Take your time. You are 1 in 100,000. You’re a diamond. Drink water and flower in your own hands. Trust your gut. Cultivate the constitution to weather the storm and worry about the way you look later. Have a hell of a time with those who love you. Be selfish with your idea of love. ✨ This came to me the other night when I was having a conversation with a beautiful younger sister of mine. I wanted to pay some of this knowledge forward. It came from my trans elders who offered it to me. 🖤 Shot by @jean.toir
