Quote by Karl Wiggins

“I’ve lived several years on this planet, but only now do I understand what true strength is. Strength is making a decision that goes against everything you believe in, a decision that causes your heart to scream out to you ‘NOOOOO!’, a decision that rips your soul apart ….. yet you still know it’s right. And despite all the uncertainty and hesitation and misgivings, you make a choice which leaves nothing but an empty hole in your heart. And all you’re left with is tears and doubt and emotions that have been hit by a fucking wrecking ball. And yet you still make that decision. That’s strength”

“I felt incongruence within myself. I didn’t know what I wanted, but I knew how I wanted to be perceived and I felt a strong desire to be respected.

I couldn’t simplify my feelings enough to understand myself.”
