I am afraid like everybody else. Afraid of life, to be swallowed into an ocean of oblivion. Sometimes I imagine my own dreams fall down like a fig from a tree just to land on the ground to rot. What’s the solution hugging a bottle. Probably not, but still better then hugging nobody right? I am not even an addict I just romanticize about the idea of being one. I like the idea of fighting back into life, to stand up from the ground to grow stronger and bigger . I want my life to be a metaphor for Kintsugi. I want to shatter myself into a thousand pieces like a bowl. Put them all back together, so that the new bowl will be even more beautiful than the original one.
