>>18462040yeah, i always have a tendency to assume the worst in others because i've been hurt so much, by myself and others, that i don't want to even try anymore because i'm trying so desperately to protect myself. it ends up hurting the ones closest to me, and drives them further away, which only serves turns a lonely time into something more bitter and resentful because i then feel like nobody cares.
if anything, none of this pain needs to define who we are, we are still human and capable of amazing things. the flow state doesn't discriminate against anybody, so it's something i try and find comfort in.
