please try before assuming you will fail at something and become paralyzed by fear and end up doing nothing. give yourself the chance to try what you’d like to do. maybe you won’t fail. maybe you’ll feel a little better just for trying. no one is judging you as much as you think they are. try.

Pádraig Ó Tuama, Kitchen Hymns

Rainer Maria Rilke, Letter to Mimi Romanelli

done healing my inner child. next up is my inner teen. her highness demands a sword.
