“For as long as I can remember, I have feared punishment. When I am happiest, I am also waiting for the other shoe to drop. I am certain I do not deserve it. The more I love something, the more I fear it will be taken away.”

100% relatable

“I watch Instagram reels from pet shelters every day, listening to the mews of friendly feral cats, kittens found in alleyways, abandoned pets. They are the most reliable way to make myself cry. Is there anything more painful than to be left, to be unloved? I identify, obviously enough, with these cats.”
