Courage does not always roar. Sometimes, it may humble itself and be mistaken for frailty. |

Some consume music, others movies, and others books; all the while finding themselves content. I want to consume the world; not through those things, but first hand. Problem is, I look around and I can't figure out for the life of me how to find the time to do it. Each step I take is progress when shed in a certain light, but I'm still here and that fact is troubling to the very core of me. I could easily throw everything aside and see where each day takes me, but that creates other problems. How does one find the balance between preparing your future without wasting your youth?
I've asked myself these questions for last 10 years of my life and the only thing that changes is how much more I lose my breath at the thought of regretting the choices I've made. |

"All I know is that I know nothing."
...and I notice that people really don't like that. It's not that I have no ideas to offer, it's just that I don't think any one answer can suffice for another person's situation.
Years ago, when I spoke with confidence about things I thought I knew about, people gravitated towards it. It seems having answers, even if there's the possibility that they are wrong, is easier for people who want others to decide how to live their lives for them. There's a freeness, a lack of responsibility even, in consistently and blindly following other people's advice. |

....Five years and things had started falling apart after year two, but we held on hoping things would get better. I was miserable and he would make promises that things would change but they never did. I didn't realize until later that he didn't care that I was miserable, he was happy and all of those promises were empty in the hopes that he could get me to stay. Once we broke up he made all of the changes I had been begging for years for him to make...but it was too late. I still remember looking at him one day and realizing I was so completely fed up with our relationship I didn't even want to look at his face. |

| ‘Still I Rise’ by Maya Angelou |

You may write me down in history
With your bitter, twisted lies,
You may trod me in the very dirt
But still, like dust, I’ll rise.
Does my sassiness upset you?
Why are you beset with gloom?
‘Cause I walk like I’ve got oil wells
Pumping in my living room.
Just like moons and like suns,
With the certainty of tides,
Just like hopes springing high,
Still I’ll rise.
Did you want to see me broken?
Bowed head and lowered eyes?
Shoulders falling down like teardrops.
Weakened by my soulful cries.
Does my haughtiness offend you?
Don’t you take it awful hard
‘Cause I laugh like I’ve got gold mines
Diggin’ in my own back yard.
You may shoot me with your words,
You may cut me with your eyes,
You may kill me with your hatefulness,
But still, like air, I’ll rise.
Does my sexiness upset you?
Does it come as a surprise
That I dance like I’ve got diamonds
At the meeting of my thighs?
Out of the huts of history’s shame
I rise
Up from a past that’s rooted in pain
I rise
I’m a black ocean, leaping and wide,
Welling and swelling I bear in the tide.
Leaving behind nights of terror and fear
I rise
Into a daybreak that’s wondrously clear
I rise
Bringing the gifts that my ancestors gave,
I am the dream and the hope of the slave.
I rise
I rise
I rise. |

Girls Season 01 Episode 10
"What's wrong?"
"It's personal, I can't explain it."
"Give it a whirl"
"Okay.... everyone's a dumb whore."
"............I can hardly stop thinking about you since the night we met. You are the strangest person. You're just... you're so raw and open. You vibrate on a very strange frequency."
"Are you punking me?"
"It's very confusing for me too.
I want to go home with you.
Tonight."
"Fine.
Just stay out of my emotional way." |

"I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane."

I don't think I could have found a more perfect set of lyrics for how I feel right about now. It's always refreshing when the classics reinvent the roles they play in your life.
