ellipses!

I REMIND MYSELF:
we grow through challenges
...and hurt from them too

life isn't perfect
...and neither are we

honesty is not always the best policy
...or perhaps an unrealistic expectation

to keep an open mind and spot the opportunities
...or live life feeling unfulfilled and lost

there is nothing wrong with burning bridges
...especially if you could no longer cross them


I AM WITNESS TO:
domestic violence
...and the ability to shut ourselves from it

mental illness
...and its incredible ability to draw in the sane, the healthy, and the kind

love
...its power to manipulate, to glorify, and to lift us to extreme heights of happiness

I AM GRATEFUL FOR:
my dysfunctions
...which suprisingly makes way for greater functionality

my quirks and neurosis
...for at least i'm an interesting person because of it

my family
...for being the source of my dyfunctions, quirks, and neurosis
