Favorite Quote:
I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become. - Carl Jung


Come now, you fickle beings.
Where are you going?
Open your freaking eyes to the world;
Ignore the evils of human nature and walk slowly to what is
good.

Hear the badump of your heart.
Feel alive! You've been sleeping for too long.
The curtains are drawn and sunlight streams through
the foggy windows. I see you, you know.
You're curling up in your blanket again.

Wake
up!

Yes, yes, you attract danger and
pain and
excitement and
hurt.
Love, don't give up on love.
Eventually you'll get it right, okay?
Okay?

So now, why are your feet still on the ground?
Leap and roar.
The world is waiting:
Leap
and
roar.
(Yes, the world is waiting.)

The author's comments:
There is always, always hope. When the world seems like it's closing in on you, it's not. Every bad moment passes.
