“We're lying to our fragile selves all the time. We feel all shocked and horrified when we learn things about people, as if we don't already know that we're only dealing with the surface of a person at all times. So, we do know that we're expecting an unrealistic "best part" from everyone else at the surface level, then we act all shocked when we have glimpses beyond those façades. As if we 're not exactly like that as well. This is why I don't expect the best out of anyone, because I want to still be there after I've seen all parts of them, I want people to feel like I'm the vast sky: that I have space in me they may fly around in. Skies don't close down the moment rainclouds form or the moment a bird loses its feather.”
