lots of work today, but it was fun! When you're doing what you love, it's a lil more tolerable despite the stress and workload. Learned a lot today!
Here's me sneaking a lil titty pic before heading out.
---------------VENT----------------
I'm not really getting paid for this (yet) because I'm still considered a trainee aka intern, but hopefully, one day, I gain enough experience so I can fully commit to being an embalmer :) I wanna learn the best practice!
honestly, I hate money, and I wish I didn't need it so much. I just want to be able to help people and give more. It is so frustrating when you have so much will, but such little time and money. I'm satisfied with just being an embalmer for the rest of my life, but if I were rich, I'd totally do this for free and fight for the many things I wanna fight for. I think more often than not, only the rich or middle class have the privilege to not only a good quality of life, but also death.
The poor are often dismissed and can't even have proper funeral services. It seems as if nobody supports them through their grief. What's sad is in the Philippines, a lot of bones from public cemeteries are displaced and poor families are given more things to grieve about.
Another thing here is not a lot of people seem to have knowledge of advance directives. These are literally YOUR rights. I wanna fight for trans death rights, I wanna push for green burial/cremation (we are literally inhaling ashes of the dead. We dont know how polluting it is, and I feel that it's the best way to impart in the circle of life + it's cheaper, more accessible, and aids environmentally). I want to do so many things.
I do not know if I will make enough one day to be able to push for these things. I really do hope so, but until then, I need to be patient and do my best to help in the best way I can.
