I cried tears of frustration that have been built up for years, as I realize I have gone my life battling a force and not people. Sometimes I’ve been on the ugly hateful side, but only when I felt ugliest too. It’s easy to live a life under the rocks and trees which are rearranged and placed by people who care, just because you feel yourself inadequate to move a boulder yourself.
I’ve changed the message I have spoken to empowering and helping people believe they can be better, because the world tells us we’re so little and we live in the shadows of those who mean more. But we need to grow into the shadows we are about to make.
I am not a pesticide, I am a fertilizer and sometimes that means I am full of shit but I’d rather be full of something than empty of purpose. I know the way to win, because the stories are written about people like us and the petty cruelties only win a chapter or two to their name. You don’t have to be a hero to be a main character, you know. You just have to try something interesting and hopeful.
Thank you, Shane.
