Seek the truth and open your heart. It will set you free.
“Child. Listen to me. Open up your heart for a moment and listen. You don’t need to banish your anger or bury your grief and sadness. The fact that you may feel anger about some injustice or inequity; the fact that you have the capacity to feel grief and sadness means that life still touches you. Learn to trust the wisdom-river flowing beneath the river of these emotions. Learn to walk with your depression, your anxiety, your anger as a teacher and a friend. The fact that you feel means that you care. The thing you *really* have to watch out for is indifference. The ones who don’t feel anything are the ones who are destroying the world.” ~ doña Río de Gracian

Reblogged this on DAILY REBEL and commented:
Remembering
fathoms of age, high school normalcy
out looking from the popular world below.
ball games and dances, cheers and fancy
all to popular, yet so closeted
another person lives inside, outsider
rebel perhaps, seeing time in patience
But I remember how fun it is
to not have to be
fitting in and having fun. Normalcy
isn’t really my thing,
Being queer, being something confused
I never felt like you, to absorb into a reality that I never had
I seek out to once look-over the bridge
