“My work is to give you what I know of my own particular path while allowing you to walk your own.”
― Ta-Nehisi Coates, Between the World and Me

“Everything changes when you start to emit your own frequency rather than absorbing the frequencies around you, when you start imprinting your intent on the universe rather than receiving an imprint from existence.”

“I don't believe that there are any situations or any person on this planet who can not be helped, whose life can not be made better. And many of these situations can be cured. If your doctor does not know something, it does not mean that the knowledge does not exist elsewhere. No body is beyond hope. No body!”

“You only really fall apart in front of the people you know can piece you back together.”

“When faced with the scariest of things, all you want to do is turn away, hide in your own invisible place. But you can't. That's why it's not only important for us to be seen, but to have someone to look for us, as well.”

Description:
Short piece that I wrote in 1991 (when I was 24). I didn't have much of a writing voice of my own. My favorite author at the time was Francesca Lia Block. Please see https://www.facebook.com/teen.reading.consultant#!/teen.reading.consultant?filter=1 for more book suggestions!
