You are the one that protected me when I was too small to protect myself. 


You are the one that taught me to be strong and always choose for my own freedom & identity.


You are the one that taught me about, art, racism, feminism, equality, spirituality, to be open and stand up for others.


You are the one that gave me guidance and strength to be on my own and not feel fear.


All of this made me being Manuela, THANK YOU 🤍
