I’d die if it meant it would make the world happy. And I don’t just say that i fucking mean it. I would give anything to make people’s life more positive. we live in a society where people think serious depression or anxiety can be fixed by thinking happy thoughts. or that eating disorders are simply a matter of eating right. thoughts can be demons drugs can’t fix. it doesn’t help that we still live 2,000 years ago. i thought we had come to a point in human existence where there would be an understanding that there are dark places in the psyche that control us more than our will power does, but i am wrong i guess. 

its great and sucks at same time that i can catch you in lies easily. and you don’t even know i can do it. you have no clue how powerful reading body language is. alright i’ll play stupid cause i do it so well.

You can’t change yourself—all you can do is let go of the story of who you are, let go of the character that you’ve created from fear.
