Sometimes, you read a book and it fills you with this weird evangelical zeal, and you become convinced that the shattered world will never be put back together unless and until all living humans read the book.

Advice I'd Give to My Younger Self.
Be unapologetic about your presence. Never enter a room with your head lowered. Hold your head up like you are proud to be who you are. Take up space. Be bold in your actions. Let your voice be heard.
You don't have to be perfect. Get over perfectionism and the fear of being embarrassed. Learn to own all your flaws and insecurities and continue to do what you love.
What other people say mean nothing. Never loose sleep over anyone’s opinion of you. They are not God and they don't define you.
Believe in yourself. You can be successful just like those people you look up to. You have what it takes. Hone your skills and be great too.
Appreciate your unique gifts and qualities. Stop comparing yourself to others and changing yourself to fit in. Always stay true to yourself.

I want the whole world to get sucked up into a void so I can avoid my responsibilities and at the same time, it wont be my fault.

when did you start to abandon your strength...your might
when did you let him seize your essence, your grace leaving wounds that scar
when did fear grip you tight underneath a pendulum’s sway robbing your inner love
when did you forget every piece every part of your true whole self?

It was magical, the way she effortlessly captured my soul..
Unrequited, unconditional, unstoppable, her love just ripped through me like a storm..
My heart beating, my breath fast and unsteady, I was completely lost for words..
It was so absolute, she was so certain, I didn’t even have to be heard..
Her smile could have conquered galaxies, but she said “all I want is you”
It was magical, rhetorical, and an unspoken “I know you love me too”
