Today marks the 75th anniversary of the death of Sophie Scholl, a German activist who spoke out against the Nazi regime and was a member of a non-violence protest group called The White Rose. The group mainly consisted of students in their early twenties who opposed the fascist rule of the Nazis and distributed leaflets urging their fellow Germans to oppose the regime through non-violent resistance. On 22nd February 1943, after the release of the sixth White Rose leaflet, Sophie was arrested by the Gestapo, convicted of treason and executed that same day by guillotine. She was 21 years old.
The lesson is to love yourself. To forgive yourself. To stop giving more than you have. To stop expecting too much from people. To find a way to live in light of your mistakes and preconceptions of love. To be open to what the future presents. To allow things to flow and fall. To break, crash, crumble. To rebuild. The lesson is to never undervalue the importance of self love. And, until you have mastered that, at least in part, to stay away from the things that damage you. I think I have finally understood where some of my pain has come from. I’m ready to move on. I’m ready for my next lesson.
“I’m wearing a thrifted coat, an HBA shirt dress, thrifted jeans and dirty Nikes. I’m inspired by my own individuality. I try my best to listen to my heart when getting dressed. I feel emotional connected to what I’m wearing in a lot of ways. Sort of like its my costume. I’m really into goth clothes and anything long and dramatic.”
