judge not!

without a license to drive since I was 18. raised 4 boys, held a management position in concrete block industries for 47 years.

without a drivers license.

beat by cops, jail, divorce, Marine Corps

2025/1/17 Edited to

... Read moreLife can throw numerous challenges our way, and my journey reflects just that. Growing up without a driver’s license since 18 posed significant obstacles, but it didn't define my capabilities. I raised four incredible boys, teaching them the importance of perseverance and hard work. My career spanned 47 years in concrete block management, where I not only developed skills but also built a legacy through dedication and passion. The struggles included encounters with law enforcement and personal conflicts, including a divorce and a background as a Marine. Each experience, whether it was facing police brutality or enduring a challenging marriage, contributed to my growth. They taught me valuable lessons about judgment, resilience, and the need for understanding in our society. While many may judge based on my lack of a driver's license, my life's achievements and the character I instilled in my sons showcase the power of determination. I encourage others to look beyond superficial appearances and understand the broader stories that shape a person's life.

A sanitary pad is shown with text overlays like "SAD" and "WTF?!", highlighting the phrase "She still wears pads??" THE GIRL BEHIND ME WHISPERED..." against a blurry background of period product packaging.
An open drawer is filled with various individually wrapped sanitary pads, predominantly in teal and pink packaging. Overlaid text discusses a friend being judged for using a pad in a public bathroom.
Various personal care items, including wipes and small pouches, are scattered on a patterned blanket. Overlaid text explains reasons why some individuals use pads, stating they are clean, comfortable, and fine.
Do people still judge pad users?
This literally made my skin crawl. So my friend texts me from a public bathroom like, WHILE she’s in the stall and tells me that the girl next to her just whispered, “She still wears pads?? That’s so gross.” Like… huh??? Are we seriously still doing that in 2025? Why are we acting like the
