Be True

It is said truth hurts. I'm taking about being true, not to anyone else but to yourself.

Nothing hurts more than lies, especially lies to yourself.

I'm bi but leaning more towards being a lez. What would have happened if I collapsed under peer and family pressure to get married, have kids and lead a so called “normal” life?

Not only would I have been unhappy, but I would have wallowed in despair or done something much worse.

One of the central tenets of Lilith is to be honest with yourself.

Years ago, I remember asking my mom “Why is my hair not blonde, why are my eyes not blue?”

Her reply was “You are who you are. Be true to yourself.”
