You don't realize - the great thing about change is how quickly we get used to it. So I'm not complaining. The more things change, the more they don't stay the same. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise. They might not change everywhere all at once - but there are moments when the impossible becomes the inevitable, and the rest is just a matter of time.

I am proud that I defy your categories. I am proud that I don't fit easily into any box. I am proud of all the things I am and all the things i can be. Question yourself every time you think you only see one thing in me.
self-discovery
It was the most amazing feeling in the world. To know that something right happened, and to know that it had happened not through luck or command but simply because it was right.
Because that's the thing about mean people: They make you think that the world will never work, that there are divides that you will fall into if you approach. It takes a whole lot of good people to fill in the breach created by a single mean one.
It felt good to be surrounded by books, by all this solid knowledge, by these objects that could be ripped page by page but couldn't be torn if the pages all held together.
And there comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic nor popular - but one must take it because it is right.
I just needed to realize that style was like personality - it didn't always have to be consistent; it just had to be something you lived with.
The more kindness and justice are challenged, the more we must embrace them. Only when you are challenged - and only when you challenge yourself - do you discover what truly matters.
Long live protest songs, in whatever form they take.
