It’s the act of being broken that unbreaks us.
You didn’t know then what you’ve learned by now.
You’re naturally gifted in the art of pretending.
Maybe one day you can walk barefoot without getting self-conscious.
Wishing for a connection but afraid to commit.
Freedom isn’t the release from truth, it’s the embracing of it.
Prayer is intimacy of the spirit.
You’ve simply turned your shoulders slightly to the left.
Some things you learn only by loneliness.
You’ll yawn at it like a cat bored with itself.
You didn’t deserve the abuse you’ve endured.
Why do other people make being happy so hard?
Closing your eyes is a gut level act.
You are not the normal you project.
You discovered something you weren’t even looking for.
How can they listen when they can’t even see?
You sometimes feel like “one or the other.”
You can’t be conquered by what’s already been conquered.
You can no longer stand the heat of it.
You live with a wide-open wonder.
Kissing the color of your skin.
You quickly realize what a bad scientist you are.
