Write with
truth. That
is the only thing that
matters. Write
with truth
dripping from
your fingertips
so
when people
rip apart
your technique
and titter and
shame,
they can’t
rip apart your
truth. Because
truth is truth.
There is
no fixing
truth. No
editing it
to
make it
symmetrical.
It is
stained and jagged
and that’s
what makes
it
beautiful.

A telegram to Little Me
I acquired a magical souvenir; it was a realisation. By taking an impulsive trip to Thailand, I awarded myself the chance to have it. You are our own gift shop. You choose the opening times, you choose the stock. They are the very nature of wisdom, realisations. One could say we collect them and form a magnificent portfolio entitled Experience. And that's why we do the majority of things we do. But travelling is the act most generous in the offering of experience, the gift shop with the best stock. We go on the hunt for experiences, daring ourselves to be stimulated in new ways, by new flavours. To sweat, swim or shiver in the waters of new challenges. To hear new sounds, learn novel outlooks, and relish as hinges creak with unknown doors opening in our hearts and minds. This realisation and the flourishing effect it had upon me made Thailand my best trip yet. All this realisation consisted of was merely a stripped back epiphany of why we do these things. See new places, take new risks, seek refreshing distractions from all that we're tired of being familiar with.

True dat about the uh truth!! 😊👍 Great work. Jagged edges are always a little more interesting.
I love the heart of this: that as long as it's True, the critics can't touch it. Not really. Fantastic! The flow had me hooked.
Great work! Fantastic job!
Absolute truth. Well said.
