Quote by Laekan Zea Kemp

“What's the voice telling you now?" Chloe says. I pluck the thought like a poison berry and force it to my lips. "That I can't do this." Chloe tightens her grip on me. "And what do you say back?" Another thought blooms on my lips, the taste this time somewhere between bitter and sweet. "That I will.”

“It's about my own self-concept. Can I accept that I am worth looking for? Here lies the core of my spiritual struggle: the struggle against self-rejection, self-contempt, and self-loathing. It is a very fierce battle because the world and its demons conspire to make me think about myself as worthless, useless, and negligible. As long as I am kept “small,” I can easily be seduced to buy things, meet people, or go places that promise a radical change in self-concept even though they are totally incapable of bringing this about. But every time I allow myself to be thus manipulated or seduced, I will have still more reasons for putting myself down and seeing myself as the unwanted child.”
