to be fair I will never find the right words to describe this feeling like when a little kid is asking you, "are you an angel?" and you obviously say no, because you know you are nothing more than a monster and then the kid says, "Of course you are. Mum said that angels harm themselves because they don't like life on Earth. This world is destroying them, so they are trying to return to paradise again. they are too sensitive to the pain of others and their own." I've wanted to say that I don't believe in paradise, and that the world is making scars on your body because the world is mean, and this makes you end up being mean to yourself. but at the same time, the world can be there for you without you expecting it, in the most beautiful way so I just told him that his mum is very wise and I got, "thank you. she's also an angel, but she already returned home.
