“if you have to judge me, judge me when i’ve made it through the darkness and i’m basking in the sunlight — not when i’m sinking in quicksand, unable to see the right from wrong. if you have to judge me, judge my whole book — not a page. because a page does not define me.”

“there is so much i want to say,
so many thoughts running through my mind,
but every word i wish to express
screams the same thing:
judge a little less.
be a lot more kind.”
― Shefali Dang, Blush
