“hope I will remember that love is not a narrow thing. That love is what makes us care, connects us to each other and the world. That love is a quest, a promise, a home.”

“This time I wondered what behavior was acceptable for a victim. What tone? She warned me not to get angry. I learned that if you’re angry, you’re defensive. If you’re flat, you’re apathetic. Too upbeat, you’re suspect. If you weep, you’re hysterical. Being too emotional made you unreliable. But being unemotional made you unaffected. How should I balance it all?”

“One major difference we should all try to remember? While many of us spend time carefully curating our images to make them perfect, Frida painted every imperfection. Look closely at her self-portraits, and you can see every bit of Frida’s infamous unibrow, every hair in the shadow above her lip. So yes, there is one lesson we can all take from Frida: Love yourself. And never stop taking—and posting!—those selfies. But maybe, just maybe, leave the Facetune and Photoshopping alone. Because no one should love your image, just as it is, more than you do.”
