“And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone. [...] When he died, all things soft and beautiful and bright would be buried with him.” 🩸
“In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” 🌻
Two souls, reunited.
(quotes from Madelline Miller's The Song Of Achilles)
This is Eman a Biotechnologist from Gaza. Asking for help is not easy. It's not easy at all. You have no idea how mentally and emotionally tiring this is. But when thinking that the price is my family's life, getting out of here safely and achieve my doctoral degree dream, it just pushes me more and more to do this until we reach our goal. I'm here as I try to reach out to more people asking for their help to support our family's campaign so we can survive while all you have to do is literally donating even by just the price of your morning coffee or maybe a simple breakfast, So I think I'm not asking for so much. We're really tired of living under these catastrophic conditions for a whole 10 months. Your generosity will not only change our lives but also remind us that even in our darkest hour, we are not alone. https://gofund.me/d597b8e2
I might not have much a presence on here but even sharing to a few is better than sharing to none! Even if you can't afford to donate sharing is important so it can reach people who can!
exy, trauma, repeat.

No but Elle Woods is a definition of a strong female character. She didn't have to loose her feminity and start behaving completely different to what she used to do, punching everything around her to be successful and actually intelligent. The only thing she struggled with was people not showing her respect for what she did - because she was a blond woman who enjoyed pink clothes, and that's easy to compare to the stereotypes.
Lately all movies and books with "strong female characters" mean a badass lady with a sword/gun running around and fighting everyone while being lound, bossy and arrogant. And don't get me wrong, I love that too, but Elle is an example of something completely opposite of that. Strong female character doesn't necessarily mean "one of the boys".
Also Elle is a great example of how you don't need to completely change yourself to become successful. You just need to find your potential. And honestly I think because of that she might be my favorite character ever.
