like you have no
secrets
like you’ve
never been

never been
hurt
like the world
don’t owe you a
single
wretched
thing.”
― Warsan Shire

even ‘hello’ sounds like ‘come here'.”

“I must pack my short lifer full of interesting events and creative activity. Philosophy and aesthetic contemplation are not enough. I intend to do everything possible to broaden my experiences and allow myself to reach the fullest development. Then, and before physical deterioration obtrudes, I shall go on some last wilderness trip to a place I have known and loved. I shall not return.”
― Everett Ruess, Everett Ruess: A Vagabond for Beauty
