Hey family! Here's the third installment of Engage Differently - Dating for Discovery. I'd love to hear your feedback! Let me know if you have any questions. https://www.skool.com/the-loved-well-society-3324/classroom/25fbcbb5?md=e69bbdd4a8114836b9f7d53eaf889881

@Christal Luster I didn't wanna take up too much of your time from our session, but I did want to touch on two things that I didn't get a chance to say in the meeting, which is the main reason why I knew I had to show up for you today. First and foremost, Imma be a little vulnerable here, and it's nothing relationship or dating related, but I appreciate you for touching on boundaries. I have mentioned this a few times, but I am in a wheelchair. I have been for most of my life. I was with spina bifida, which is the primary reason for that part of me as well as anxiety and depression, which is extremely hard and leads me to overthink and really test my patience, but I know that I will never let it have full access over my life and take control of me. I can expect to have those days at times. I have been getting through grief within the past few years on top of that yet I know I'm still chosen by God in spite of the lies. Last year, I went to JobCorps. I'm sure you know what it is. This isn't for all JobCorps locations across the country because I know I can't really say this for every location other than the location I went to. I visited them, and they told me the place wasn't wheelchair accessible, which was disheartening to say the least. My point is being in a space that is not accommodating for me, that is not accessible for somebody like me does not work. You are one of the reasons why I want to be a disability advocate, which I'm working on getting into aside from my choir opportunity in church. To this day, I'm 10 toes down when I say disability doesn't mean inability. Yes, there may be a handful of things that I'm limited to physically like opening heavy, thick, spring-loaded doors and things that may be out of my reach, but it doesn't minimize my worth. People like me deserve more than that. Second thing is I know this is all behind you now, but I'm sorry for what happened to you a couple of days ago with that Samoan guy (if I remember correctly) who sent you that ignorant text. I cannot begin to fathom whatever that mess was but props to you for what you did with what you had in that situation, but I'm glad you are OK. For somebody to disrespect you like that because you didn't have the time to get back to them is insane to me. Unstable people are everywhere. My mental health ain't the best, but I know I ain't got the heart to crash out like that. On top of that, when I think about it, I kind of feared that somebody was about to counter that argument against you and center it around Black people, but I'm not gonna get into that part yet I know we tired of the racism. Disgusted is an understatement when it comes to behavior like that, which leads me to this. I can and I will say that mental health doesn't excuse accountability for any wrongdoings. If I do wrong and make a mistake, ain't no way I'm using my disability/mental health as a shield against that. I know this is a lot yet I feel that it needs to be said for discernment on who I am.
