Kindness sources the warmth in this cruel fight. The darkest part I have in me has had moments where I wish to be kinder. To myself, to the people around me, to the world in general; but the tiny mind of mine will always question
How much of your ego are you feeding by pretending to be alright to be vulnerable?
It was kindness that taught me bravery. You, were my last moment of bravery. 60 on a highway for a certain separation. Recognizing every single hurt you have endured for me and weighing it against possible death and choosing possible death. l let the mellowness of love and gratitude engulf me on that sunny blue eve and I couldn't stop.
How achingly cruel and selfish are kind people? They fill you with courage and faith that this world will accept you. With their rosy words and soft gestures and lukewarm anger that they never will show. How achingly cruel.
