They say beginnings are hard, but you see, this isn’t really my blog.
What is this then?
People aren’t just one single, never-changing entity. We’re created through hundreds and thousands of fragments, each fragment a tiny experience that has shaped who we are today.
They can be a picture, a quote, a poem, a song. They can be other people’s, or our personal interpretational remix of what we see and feel after encountering their work.
They can be big. They can be small. But each piece becomes a tiny fragment of a mosaic that is me.
This isn’t a blog. This is a composite. This is a portrait made up of one million tiny brushstrokes.
They say beginnings are hard, but you see, this isn’t a beginning.
This is a continuation.
This is me.
Deconstructed.

"So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them."
— Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower (via bookmania)
"Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don’t try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It’s the one and only thing you have to offer."
— Barbara Kingsolver (via amandaonwriting)
"We never know what is going to happen, do we? Life is always throwing us this way and that. That’s where the adventure is. Not knowing where you’ll end up or how you’ll fare. It’s all a mystery, and when we say any different, we’re just lying to ourselves. Tell me, when have you felt most alive?"
— Eowyn Ivey, The Snow Child (via larmoyante)
"You must be filled with expectancy. You must be awash in hope. You must wonder who will love you, whom you will love next."
— Kate DiCamillo, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane (via larmoyante)
