It matters not how you feel or how it feels ;It is okay not to be okay. Don’t get rid of yourself. You’re a child of the universe.

Reroute me

Reroute me

I look back, reminiscing............... Thinking about life, particularly what is the meaning of mine? Decisions are inevitable, yet they are not my thing! Free will, what is free will when I can only see as far as now, not even knowing what the next second holds. How could I possibly know what's best for me with this sort of "limitation".

Sick

Eva Ndanu Ever felt tangible pain? Pain that cuts a swathe through.Pain that is real.Pain that eats your smile and charm.Pain that fills you with anger.Pain that bulldozes your composure. Pain that threatens your identity.Pain that comes with its relatives.The pain that hospitals can’t treat.Pain that even your dreams know of.Pain that makes you curse this world. Every part of you attests to...
