Often trying is simply not enough. I say perspective, but talking useless words is infinitely easier than doing it soaked in meaningful silence. 

Sympathy for sufferers only grow bigger as you get older.

I try so hard to stay naive and young, but you just cannot unsee certain things as you go through life. The real challenge is staying you despite it all.

Aftermath, 2021

I’m feeling again. 

Please pinch me hard, I know it will hurt and you can’t begin to understand how happy that will make me.

[haejunglee]

Do I accept what seems inevitable or fight through in hopes that change might take place? 

Is it comfort over progress or walking in circles?

Will there be light at the end or will I —

it all seems easy until you’re in the thick of it. 

All the unsolicited advice turned to shit. 

Pointless. Hopeless. All good, for now.
