Limitations
Dear Cyperspace,
It turns out I have been put in a box again. I simply hate it when that happens. People try to put others in "boxes" or sterotypes often. This is because there is a common assumption that marginalized people are easier to understand. I do not believe this is true. People who feel limited tend to do one of two things: A) Draw back and no accomplish as much as they could, or B) Go over and beyond just to prove themselves. Both of these responses can be more harmful than helpful. How shall I choose to respond to being put in a box? I am capable, but I do not need to prove myself to anyone.
A lot has happened over the course of 19 years. What I do with the rest of my years...is yet to be determined. One thing for sure is...I will not stay in a box.
