I won’t apologise for being me

Kiss of Beth

Don’t care what your old man say
Young blood, heaven hate a sinner
But we gonna raise hell anyway”

Welcome back.

Thanks for sticking with me while I took some time off to re-group. I’m now going to explain why I felt like I had to.

I am healing years of limiting beliefs
