Chillona Chingona - Paperback

by Ely Lupe (Author)

Chillona Chingona is a book for people on the lifelong, intentional journey of finding their best, most favorite selves. For the overthinkers, the ones who live in their heads. For dreamers, especially daydreamers, who are constantly imagining other realities. For those upset with the current state of the world. for those who struggle to find the beauty in life and stay afloat. For those who have thought about disappearing, you matter. For those who struggle to feel like they are enough, you are. For heart on the sleeve wearers, who bleed empathy, you are loved. For people who embrace the duality of their soft and strong selves, you belong. And especially for first generation people, especially women, attempting to reconcile the identities that live within and being true to oneself. In this poetry collection, you will witness the journey of a poet who has struggled with all of these issues and found solace through poetic expression. You are not alone. The pain is real, but there exists healing on the other side of the written word. Reading and writing poetry will lead you to a journey of self-discovery where you can finally feel comfortable in your own skin, and through this healing you will thrive.
