In a world with unlimited options, the choices you make determine your trajectory. Every time you say yes to one thing, you are saying no to another. Stop living in fear of the unknown. Leave the country, read a library, quit your job. Do what you want because you can just as easily fail at the things you don't want.

She built a wall.

Fill the cracks of others with love instead of trying to pry them open enough to find out what caused the cracks to begin with.

If the world cursed me to see one thing for the rest of my days, I'd pray it was the image of you in a moment of true happiness and bliss. Your soul shines through your pores when you smile and no words I write could ever describe how beautiful that is.
