ME QUIERO LIBRE

I remember being a little girl in the country house, plucking daisies, asking if the boys I liked liked me or not.

It always turned out no.

The flowers were not wrong.

No boy ever liked me.

I remember as a teenager settling for any boy who would notice me.

I remember when I was young, when I started dating, leaving one relationship and getting into another. Choosing men who wanted me very much and disliked me very much.

I remember myself as an adult without self-love, emotionally dependent and caged in instilled beliefs.

I remember myself… And I honor each of these women that I was.

I just wanted to reach old age and remember that I also wanted to be free.

Free from ancestral burdens.

Free from beliefs that limit my life.

Free not to choose from lack.

Free to not hide that I also like women.

Free to love the soul of your conscious choice.
