For the youth, the indignation of most things will just surge as each,birthday passes.
We do not fear the flame, though it burns us,We do not fear the fire, though it consumes us,And we do not fear its light,Though it reveals the darkness of our souls,For therein lies our power. -- Blood Oath of the Iron Elves,We come into this world alone. You’re going to die alone. That’s the way it is. I think a really great interpretation of love is: feeling alone with someone else. The times in my life, if you want to qualify as “being in love”, when you feel almost like being alone with company.
My mum fought for feminism in her day so instilled in me the importance of equality. She taught me so much about women.
For the youth, the indignation of most things will just surge as each birthday passes.
