I am just a guy, doing my best to be the best person I can be.And, every once in a while, I fuck up the moment I__ in.Please. Get over it. Get over yourselves. Get over this weird need to be morally superior to me and to the other people in this world.And let me be imperfect. I assure you, my imperfections drive me to improve.Let me love myself. I assure you, loving myself despite my faults will only make me a better person.Let me be my own judge.

For me. For you. For everyone. And I__l never stop.

Occasionally, events in one's life become clearer through the prism of experience, a phrase which simply means that things tend to be clearer as time goes on. For instance, when a person is just born, they usually have no idea what curtains are and spend a great deal of their first months wondering why on earth Mommy and Daddy have hung large pieces of cloth over each window in the nursery. But as the person grows older, the idea of curtains becomes clearer through the prism of experience. The person will learn the word "curtains" and notice that they are actually quite handy for keeping a room dark when it is time to sleep, and for decorating an otherwise boring window area. Eventually, they will entirely accept the idea of curtains of their own, or venetian blinds, and it is all due to the prism of experience.

We grow when the walls press in. We grow when life steals our control. We grow in darkness.

Growth happens slowly, slow down today enjoy life without been in hurry

The __rowing_ we attribute to becoming more mature, could be more accurately described as __hrinking,_ as we cut away the nonsense that emotionally weighs us down.

Our wounds are the only thing humbling enough to break our attachment to our false self.

If you want relief from pain just strive to touch more of every part of life.

Love has no demand of us but to keep practicing, to do the next hard thing. Love says, Come dear. Take the next step.

People are never able to outperform their self-image.

Growing up is childish.
