Be mad. Be wild. Get upset. Cry, at least as often as necessary. Scream. Yell. Embrace the darker part of you utterly and entirely. Be afraid. You are not a single rose garden. You are an entire world, containing both sunshine and thunderstorms, and maybe even a tornado or two. As Walt Whitman once said, you contain multitudes. Let your inner fire rage on; it is part of you too. Because, my dear, you are LARGE. You are more than just a six by two rectangular cutout of a human being. Your thoughts can start fires. Your words can change hearts. Your emotions can illuminate everything at least within a ten mile radius. You are not just a piece of sand on a crowded beach. Hell, you’re the whole beach, and the ocean, and the mountains, and the city, and everything in between. You are LARGE, and I hope you never forget it.
