Chapter 1 - Dedication

To my siblings and to my parents,

for being the biggest part of my life and being the best possible versions of yourselves because you inspire me everyday and you give me hope that the society can be better if it had more people like you in it.

You make me feel like the luckiest sister and the luckiest daughter in the world. So I thank you.

We know the truth because we have lived with it within us all our lives. It's the only part of us that feels real and pure. Yet there are some of our siblings who are dehumanized for living their truth.

To those who have lost, and will lose, their lives for simply being and loving differently, I thank you for existing and for being evidence of pure truth.
