i talked a lot in class tonight. i was talking to some of my grad school friends about how i don't bring up a lot of things because i am "ridiculous." my friend teresa just turned around and said, "tia, your feelings are valid and you shouldn't say that they are ridiculous. you are a good person and you have a voice and you should be able to express that." it is good to be reminded that you are relevant.
