Dear Self,
I promise you to stop only getting points for attendance, to actually participate
I promise you to laugh more especially at pain so that I don’t let it turn into suffering. Ngwino Ubeho!
This rain reminded of how on this day April 12th, 27 years ago we were saved by it for the first time in Nyamirambo, Me at 3 months and 2 weeks with my parents and other people while we were on the line waiting to be killed and be thrown in the mass grave.

When Aline Gahongayire said: "Imana yampaye taille nziza nifuza". I took notes and if Y'all see me in Summer at Gisenyi with my ribs and my arms of zero biceps and triceps. Mind your business~B
We survivors always refuse to be silenced, this is why we will always fight all the 1994 genocide against Tutsis deniers. It’s our duty towards our beloved ones, which help us to carry the message "Never Again". Umwanzi agucira akobo Imana igucira akanzu. Turacyariho!

The stigma and insensitivity on suicide in the Rwandan society is so harmful and real. We need to know that a range of factors contribute to suicide risk, we really need to increase the availability of mental health services and make it a national health care priority.
Going through an event of loss in this pandemic is really hard and painful. There isn’t really any words that make it better, some days are better than others. To everyone experiencing the similar events of loss, my heart and energy are with you. Stay strong as you can be❤️❤️❤️.
Ariko rwose abanyarwanda turatangaje. Ni gute ushobora kwifata ukavuga amagambo nk'aya: Ese buriya yabashije kwihana? Mbega ukuntu apfiriye mu byaha? Buriya se azabwira iki Imana? ku bantu bagize ibyago koko. Nonese wowe utunganye witeguye bingana gute ku buryo wahita utaha?

Because She got harrassed in front of some people. No one did nothing to stop it, after that they recorded it, edited it and finally decided to air it! And our officials will condemn someone for taking nudes and let this pass in the name of "CULTURE"!!!
Healing doesn't mean you will never get triggered again, or that eventually you are going to arrive somewhere free of any pain or past suffering. Healing is a quiet homecoming. It is about returning to yourself and settling peacefully into the truth of who you are~B
Healing is unlearning. Healing is grieving. Healing is letting go. Sometimes we have to let the old life die to make room for who we are becoming. One difficult aspect of the healing journey is releasing ourselves from relationship dynamics that no longer serve our highest good.
This pandemic has really ruined many things. Now that we are starting 100 days of commemoration. I am sending Love and Strength to every survivor during this time. For we can't get together and remember together by sharing memories of our beloved ones.

Y'all pretend to be allies to Women and LGBTQ on the internet but we all know how it goes in real life. Apply this consistency in real life.

So last night, a group of Chinese people passed right next to me and i said LOUDLY “coronavrus”
they got offended and I said “see how you feeling right now, that’s how black people feel every day!”
Happy Birthday to my big sister and the Goddess of the family. There's no other blessing than keeping riding this life together. In any lifetime; I will find a way to have you in my life Forever. Have the best birthday, you deserve everything and more! Forever and always❤❤❤~B
I really have a warm hearted thought to people who came and helped us to escape the extinction that day and hide us. Me and my family, we are really grateful. Mwarakoze cyane 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Mon père est grand-papa. Merci tous les rwandais pour vos voeux.
P.S: si on n'est pas proche, vous trouverez les photos dans Forbes magazine bientôt!!!
If I die. I ask whoever we have been talking. Don't post our conversation cause it is not the only memory I will leave behind you. What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas~B
P.S: If you do it, I will haunt you and take you with me!!!
YOU ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE!
The world is filled with people who, no matter what you do, will blank not like you. But it is also filled with those who will love you fiercely. They are your people. You're not for everyone and that's OK. Talk to the people who can hear.
This year, I'm releasing connections/friendships that require me unhealthy emotional labor. I have realized I'm not interested in emotionally overextending myself anymore. I am welcoming a piece of me back home to myself, which will give room to nurture those depleted spaces.
Someone paid a flight ticket: 1000€ hotel 500€ transport 300€ to come to Rwanda Day and seek land title of a value of 1400€..
Abanyarwanda bakunda imanza..

I have learned something in life, it's that you should tell people how important they are to you. Not because they could leave at any moment, but because they're here now, and it's worth to say something~B
Shout out to everyone making progress that no one recognizes because you never let anyone see your darkest moments. You have been silently winning battles and transforming yourself, be proud of every step you are making in the right direction. Keep going because you got this~B
#MalcolmAndMarie
isn't only Art, but also a Meltdown. Its quarrels illuminate the rot in a relationship and illustrate the fine line between love and hate, want and need. Such most bittersweet and beautiful moments to watch in talented stars and gorgeous cinematography of it.
7 Avril 1994: Premier jour anormal sous le ciel du Rwanda. Depuis cette date, des vies férocément et brusquement arrêtées, des destins gâchés, et pour tous ceux resterent ou vinrent après, des trajectoires tout à fait chamboulées.
I am intentionally inviting joy into my life, I am no longer holding on to the things I can't control. I have understood that acceptance is the path to resilience.
Sometimes the weight you need to lose is people. Sometimes the weight you need to lose is a mentality. Sometimes the weight you need to lose is an attitude or a habit. Sometimes the weight you need to lose is a belief. Because sometimes the weight you need to lose is inside~B
The wounded child inside many males is a boy who, when he first spoke his truths; was silenced by paternal sadism, by a patriarchal world that didn't want him to claim his true feelings.
Some people get tattoos for art or as a memorial. And some get them as a way to express their personality and passions. And some get them just because they look pretty. No matter what your reasoning, tattoos are a personal thing and a great way to celebrate your individuality~B
This is so wrong! You’re comparing health to materials and luxury, which is not the case. Health is a necessity and right for everybody. How about we start exploring how therapy should be accessible rather than a privilege.
Comme un survivant aux pensées suicidaires, je célèbre également ceux qui sont suicidaires mais qui choisissent toujours de donner une chance à la vie, en célébrant ceux qui ont trouvé le moyen de trouver des raisons de rester en vie~B
Imagine saying you don't give a fuck about Cathédrale Notre dame de Paris. But still tweet about it. Y'all mastered the art of minding your business!!!
Sometimes we are afraid to let go of our store and our pain because we don't know who we are without it. And that makes sense, because when we live with something for so long, it becomes part of our identity. That's why healing takes courage.
This couple sitting behind me in the restaurant is serving me their f tea. They just split up and marriage is canceled. What a beginning of the year...
To all LGBTQI+ Community don't wait for people to accept you. This means that Cishet don't need to validate you. They don't have take part in this gender pyramid. You don't need to be accepted as if it was a step in life. Just Be You❤❤❤
This is so heartbreaking that someone’s days are cut short by bigoted queer phobes, this existence is so exhausting. Rest in eternal peace and boldness Edwin🕊🕊🕊🤍🤍🤍💐💐💐
Edwin Chiloba was an amazing human. He was bold, passionate, his energy was immaculate. He embodied fashion. Someone murdered him cruelly, put his body in a box & dumped his body.
Edwin we speak your name. May yr blood not spill for nothing. Stop killing queer people.
Tôt ce matin, les collines m'ont murmuré vos noms, tout doux ils m'ont rapellé votre histoire. J'ai fermé les yeux pour vous rappeler à la vie. Je vous imagine! J'imagine votre vie, et de mémoire je rédessine.
Shout out to everyone who is trying right now.
Trying to do the right thing. Trying to stay open. Trying to hold on. Trying to let go. Trying to meet each new day. Trying to find their balance. Trying to love themselves.
I see you, I'm there too. We're in this together~B
