“The human subconscious is the attic of the soul, a storage room for inconvenient truths, but it’s also probably the place in our minds that understands our need and desire to continually transition in our lives. All a lot of us want to do is adjust parts of ourselves to feel comfortable living our lives, not to exist with one foot in the attic and the other in the living room.
