Dearest Friend,
Please remember to be gentle with yourself.
You are made up of billions of years and your
Molecules match stardust.
Even when you stumble, you are going somewhere.
Don’t be afraid to let your heart break,
Like any muscle, the burn hurts with a certain
Satisfaction—maybe it’s the knowledge that
You’re getting stronger.
Rip your thoughts asunder, darling
Each and every day.
Open your brain so wide, that you think an entire universe might

,
Spilling, pouring, pooling. Drenching
the entire world around you in undiscovered galaxies,
heavy with a thousand alien cultures
and a brajillion new snarketsitzches
Please remember that even a caterpillar may suffer an identity crisis;
That is why it becomes a butterfly.
