For me this is an internal feeling I have each day in today’s environment. I don’t ever want to take away from anyone else’s experience or down play an important issue, however I am a white woman and yet I do not feel like sometimes my own story matters or my feelings. I have been blessed in life I will admit that, but it has not been a walk in the park for me and I have had my own challenges. Just because I am white does not mean that I do not understand certain feelings others have because maybe my situation was different but I have had my own experiences, such as being a prisoner of your own mind and wishing you could just be the normal everyone sees. The privilege that I supposedly have I am not aware of it and truly see a person for who they are. I have my story and I love to hear about other people’s stories and talk to them about it because I love to learn about people.
