Many of our strongest opinions arrived before our ability to examine them.

Family called them values. Society called them normal. We called them our own.

Growing up intellectually begins when we dare to ask, which of my beliefs have I actually earned?

The older you get, the more you realise that time doesn't make every wound smaller.

Some wounds simply become less interesting.

And perhaps that's what healing is,

Not forgetting what happened.

Just refusing to keep giving it today's attention.

We don't always become tired from doing too much.

Sometimes we become tired from pretending that something matters to us when, deep down, it doesn't.

Nothing exhausts the mind quite like living against its own truth.
