for a while maybe i haven't seen myself as a whole person, like I do others or my friends. i focus on flaws, victimise myself or focus in on the things i lack. i'm a whole person, a whole universe, rich and exciting. i'm still learning. we never stop making a mess, we just know how to avoid knocking the glass over the next time. i am all i have, separate from my connections and possessions. i should care for me as i would those i hold so tightly to my heart. it is my first week as a 25 year old in this big world, but I am still every version of myself that came before him.
