Glory: I look around at this world you're so eager to be a part of and all I see is six billion lunatics looking for the fastest ride out. Who's not crazy?

Discovering your worth and deciding who deserves a piece of you are all part of the same journey. One pathway allows you to find yourself and create yourself if you don't like it. The other pathway allows you to see who was there cheering you on the sidelines. From there you choose who to keep in your life. People will walk in and out in your life, some are meant to be there, others not so much. No matter what the case, you learn what is you want and deserve in yourself and others. ↗

And indeed I dare say that in making that statement Jean den Meun's Reason denied her Father, for the doctrine He gave was altogether different. ↗

At the time I didn't realize their lie was a defense against the fear they had of losing their mother. I was still too young to understand that most lies were not about stealing or fighting or cheating but were just ways by which a person shrinks their whole world down to a size they can keep protected in the palm of one hand. ↗
