dear readers,
i have a confession.
i have bad days, just like you.
days where i feel anger
boiling in my chest,
as consuming and as bright as the sun.
days where tiredness sinks into my bones
and i just want to sleep and escape to the
effervescent realm of dreams.
days where i don't want to explore
and i miss things i never experienced.
dear reader,
i wanted to tell you that
it's perfectly fine to feel.
always remember
the quest for eternal happiness is impossible.
this is something i learned
after pondering
and reflecting
and contemplating.
you can't only be happy.
life is a patch-work of emotion
of joy and sadness
of trust and betrayal
of love and hate
of confidence and jealousy
and that's what makes you, you.
dear reader,
you are allowed to have bad days.
you are allowed to be worried and scared
about things that are out of your control.
you are allowed to feel.
—always remember that.
