“Denounce useless guilt. Don’t make a cult of suffering. Live in the now(or at least the soon). Always do the things you fear most. Courage is an acquired taste like caviar. Trust all joy. If the evil eye fixes you in its gaze, look elsewhere. Get ready to be 87.”

Lungs that were once stars heaving air in and feet that are still walking despite it all dragging through the dust. You: A miracle with a smile like skies. A universe wearing human skin.”
