“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.” — butterflies rising
