❝This is my favorite post because it resonates deeply with me. This is something I’ve struggled with for years being of Latinx decent. Spanish wasn’t my first language nor was it spoken in the household but I tried very hard to learn it. It was refreshing to know that I am not the only one that feels this way.❞
