MY MOTHER MARRIED A MAN WHO YELLS
In this way, he is like and unlike my father.
A man who would raise his voice at anything to unnerve it
vs. a man who would yell at a can of tunafish he couldn’t get open.
One, I watched scream until my younger brother pissed himself.
One, I watched curse at a chair he stubbed his foot on.
Both times I felt like I couldn’t breathe.
Truth is, the man doesn’t matter anymore.
Just the timbre.
Just the anger.
Just the volume.

Just because THEY can’t doesn’t mean YOU can’t.
Dream so big that they won’t believe that you can do it, and then do it.

When you lose a best friend, it’s worse than breaking up with a boyfriend. Because you lose more than a heart, you lose a bit of yourself.

Wanting to be someone else is a waste of the person you are.
