“you can't actually dim someone else's brightness. it's part of them. it's part of who they are. and no matter what you do, it's not in your power to take it. even if you try to create tarnish around them, nothing you do can ever make them less bright or beautiful or creative or magnetic or less of any other thing that they hold within them. trying to tear others down will only ever make you feel less beautiful than you are. no amount of trying to put out someone else's light is ever going to heal the darkness you feel. and the truth is, that fight you feel against their glow is just your soul aching for you to fight for your own. so step back and take your focus off of them. take a breath in. stop trying to put out someone else's fire… start looking inside and light up your own.”
