Quote by Prophet Michael A Dalton

“A pretty slave is still a slave. A prisoner on a yacht is no less bound than a prisoner on a slave ship. Dancing in the middle of a thunderstorm might make you happy, but you are still soaking wet. And, running naked into a blizzard might declare your independence, but it will also be the proof of your insanity and cost you most of your extremities.”

“am i safe here, am i seen here, can i breathe here, do i bloom here, can i grow here, can i glow here, do i feel free here, does my pulse stir and my heart beat here, can i trust this, is there truth here, is it beautiful here… do i feel beautiful here, and not just do i feel loved here… but do i get to love me here. out of all the questions i have with someone… i think the ones that ask, “what does it feel like here?” are my most important ones.”

“our in-between spaces can make us feel like giving up… when we are waiting on a dream, we ache. when we are fighting to heal, we hurt. when we don’t have answers, we feel lost. but if we give up… we still ache, and we still hurt, and we still feel lost. at least if we don’t give up… we do all those things with hope. and so i think you just have keep going… until your intangible aches are in the flesh, and the healing has settled in, and the answers are being touched by light… i think you have to keep going.”
