Why is it seemingly hard to conceive of someone kind/caring but not naive and also not "faking" the kindness? May just be my background but the people I know who been through the trenches turned out the most conscientious, so long as their heart didn't harden.
for a while there i was against continuing when its clear you have gone wrong but now im 100% back on my bullshit. let's get that luxurious amount of time!
Can't allow myself to carry the weight of life and death on my shoulders, and yet! I do it every single time. Anyway, I love you people. It can be okay.
