When others might have given up on me or made me doubt myself, he stayed by my side and gently reminded me of my strength and inner beauty, even when I couldn’t feel it myself.

P.S. This was the song we danced to at our wedding! Lovers Rock Tour she was like a Queen on stage. Love

We lost a sister!! 🙏🙏

This morning we are without a cherished endo sister. Someone who amidst her own pain always fought to inspire and change our endometriosis community.
Rachel you were smart, intelligent, funny and kind. You listened to others, you felt this world so deeply with your heart. Our Marches and our mountain time recharged my soul and when I wanted to give up I always saw your quotes and poems online.

We do not give enough attention to mental health, to nourishing those in the depths of grief over their bodies and chronic disease.

One of the most damaging lies survivors are fed is this:

“If you just explained it better, they would understand.”

But here’s the truth most people never say out loud.

They did understand.

They heard the words.
They saw the pain.
They knew something was wrong.

And they chose neutrality anyway.

Not because they were confused.
Because accountability would have required action.
Discomfort.
Loss of image.
Admitting they failed you.

So instead, they reframed you.
Minimised it.
Asked what you did.
Suggested staying neutral.
Suggested forgiveness.
Suggested silence.

That wasn’t misunderstanding.
That was self-protection.

And when you finally stop explaining,
stop justifying,
stop performing clarity for people invested in denial,
you don’t disappear.

You become unmanageable.

That’s why they say you’ve changed.

Education is supposed to expand the mind, not close it.
But when learning stops at memorization, obedience, and repetition, it becomes dangerous.

⚠️ A mind that only absorbs information — without examining it — is easily controlled.

Many people are trained what to think,
but never taught how to think.

• They repeat ideas they’ve never tested
• Defend beliefs they’ve never examined
• Obey systems they’ve never questioned
• Fight others over opinions they didn’t arrive at themselves

🧠 This is not intelligence.
It is conditioned thinking.

True education does not ask for blind agreement.
It invites curiosity, doubt, inquiry, and courage.

🌱 Progress has never come from people who simply accepted what was handed to them.
Every scientific breakthrough, social reform, and moral awakening began with someone asking:

👉 “Is this actually true?”
👉 “Who benefits from me believing this?”
👉 “Does this reduce suffering — or create it?”

🔥 Questioning is not rebellion.
It is responsibility.

A society that discourages questioning creates followers.
A society that encourages questioning creates thinkers.

🕊️ Wisdom begins when you realize: • Authority can be wrong
• Tradition can be outdated
• Majority opinion can still be false
• Loud voices are not always right voices

💡 Real freedom doesn’t come from having more information.
It comes from having the courage to examine it.

Think deeply.
Question respectfully.
Observe carefully.
And never hand your mind over to anyone who asks you not to think.

Because a mind that cannot question
is a mind that can be led anywhere.
