Assignment: Reflect on this quote* "He in his madness prays for storms and dreams that storms will bring him peace" -Leo Tolstoy*
Sometimes all we want is something to destroy us. To dash us to pieces upon the rocks, until we lay scattered, like a macabre game of 52 pickup. Because it's easier to start over from scratch then to stretch one more butterfly bandage. When you've done so many repairs and patch-ups that you are less person and more stitches, it makes more sense to break, so you can gather up the fragments and fashion them into something new. Cause maybe your next self will be less fragile than the last.
So we fall in love with the dangerous things: Storms and people, and everything in between. Not because we think we're invincible, because we are waiting for the thing that will destroy us properly for once.
Rinse and Repeat.
