And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.

people have been reblogging my old pakistani miku art from four years ago so i just want people to know i can draw better now
I’m not usually one to complain about stuff like this. I’m a minority, yeah, but I’ve never really felt the lack of representation.
Until recently. I’m an American Muslim, Pakistani man. Young man. I don’t have a big beard or turban. I have flat black hair, and brown eyes.
and I’m Middle Eastern.
and nothing has made me more…. Sad, then looking for face claims for RPs. You’ll never find one. I can’t find one that I feels represents me or my character. And if it’s close, it’s either a really bad pic, or it’s not middle eastern. I hate using face claims for RPs cause of this. So if you run a face claim blog, or anything like that…
help a guy out. Put some more representation. Middle eastern men.
repost this if you can, please
