He has a strength of character,
empowering,
gentle,
strong,
compassionate,
passionate.
The type of person
who inspires
and unintentionally makes
you feel like you don’t do enough,
the kind of person who is ordinary
and pushes themselves so much
beyond their limits.
And when he isn’t fighting for rights
and for attitudes to change,
he likes running marathons
just for the challenge,
learning about new foods
that keep him healthy,
painting and drawing pictures
that express himself and his ideas.
He’s the kind of activist
the right-wing fear,
one who pushes through fear
to get his point across
and that bravery is
inspiring of course
but it’s also kind of sexy,
much more braver
than someone going into a boxing ring,
he faces emotional insults daily
and most of all he’s the kind of activist
the right-wing fear
because he’s an everyperson,
ordinary and articulate
in extraordinary circumstances
in which he feels he has no choice
but to fight
and the best activists
can be found
when pushed to the limits,
the choices he makes come
from his brain
but they are most powerful
because they come from his heart.
I love that person also and I see myself as that person. It takes hard work to find that person in you and then you realize it’s who you really are and it becomes natural ❤
