@brianaksmith: I used to think a good mother was the one who stayed, endured, sacrificed, and carried everyone else’s happiness no matter the cost. Now I think a good mother is one who tells the truth. One who shows her children what it looks like to be fully alive. One who teaches them that their life belongs to them. I couldn’t see that when I was drowning in guilt. I can see it so clearly now. Choosing myself was choosing them too. #lateinlifebesbian #comingout #lateinlifelesbiansupport #comingoutsupport
this gives me hope as a 22 year old single mom, im still in the closet but I hope some day I can be out and the full happy version my daughter deserves to see and I deserve to be

My kids have the best parent in my girlfriend and they’ve watched the life come back in their momma eyes. No one can ever call me selfish.

I love seeing/hearing from women on the other side of it all. Still going through the separation and being told I’m being selfish but I know it’s going to be worth it for all of us! 💛

Currently going through the beginning of this. I can feel the difference in myself but I still have so much guilt.
