Quote by butterflies rising

“it's Sexual Assault Awareness Month… and it crashes into us with the news of millions of views of some type of “online rape academy,” and at first, we feel rage. but then… we feel not so surprised at all. and it's because we've already known too many versions of this… and it feels common… and what actually feels foreign is to even consider a world where SA is just terrible and rare. and so i try to imagine it… like what if we could have that world? but then i feel more rage… because i don't want to just imagine it, i want it to be real. i want to live in a world where the horrible things that we've accepted as common could only ever be terrible and rare.”

“what we run from or push away, the “you can't hurt me if i hurt you firsts”… not letting it come to us because it's just too good to be true… or when it does, we can't let it be here because it's just too beautiful to stay… or trying to grip it and control it when all we really need to do to hold it is let it dance in our fingertips instead of suffocating it away. i think that thing we do as a defense when we're scared of losing something is often why we end up losing things. and maybe letting the beautiful things belong here… is just in seeing that our fear is what doesn't belong here.”
