everytime i think of the fun things i do in life, i think of my mother.
it’s like that one post... is it just a post? or a longer quote idk??? but it’s this: mothers and daughters exist as wretched mirrors of each other: i am all you could have been and you are all i might be.
it’s unfortunate that this is still the reality for so many women all over the world, not only the ph, they still have to fight for ownership over their own bodies.
amazing film, def a tear jerker.
jadaone loves using children and younger selves as mirrors to her main characters, as seen here and also her 2019 film ulan (starring theee one and only nadine lustre ily queen), as if to say that this 2nd other character, the child, they’re still a part of yourself (abortion or no abortion)... that’s still you, because it’s your body and it belongs to you!
i am so glad to live a life where i get to laugh and be reckless and impulsive and have no worries and still pursue my dreams. i am so happy that i belong only to myself, and sometimes i wish i could turn back time to tell my mother that it’s ok to have fun and live for her dreams.
but i am her and she is me, and i am the children that i will never bear, and i hold my extra bright extra shiny future with them!!!
