“I have survived too much to go quietly.
Let a meteor take me.
Call the thunder for back up.
My death will be grand.
The land will crack,
the sun will eat itself…

-the day I leave.” – Rupi Kuar.

When things are good,
They’re really good.
But when things are bad,
They’re really, really bad.
Such a blessing is it
to be so engaged
in the emotional aspect of things,
and to feel so deeply on this world.
But they were right about the cursed part.
The inevitable double edged sword….

I’ll take more of the good please.
