I wanna take a break
"Take any emotion - love for a woman/man, or grief for a loved one, or what I’m going through, fear and pain from a deadly illness. If you hold back on the emotions - if you dont allow yourself to go through them - you can never get to being detached, you’re too busy being afraid. You’re afraid of the pain, you’re afraid of the grief, you’re afraid of the vulnerability that loving entails."
But by throwing yourself into these emotions, by allowing yourself to dive in all the way, over your head even, you experience it fully and completely, you know what pain is. And only then you can say, "Alright, I have experienced that emotion, I recognized that emotion, now I need to detach from that emotion for a moment."

I know that this world isn't always the safest place. I wanted to write this down, because we could die tomorrow; And you will never know, just how much you meant to me. ♥
