" Either way, I just couldn’t do it anymore. It no longer seemed worth it to try to be someone I’m not especially when I love all the things that I am. I love how intensely I love people. Especially despite my background. I think it’s an incredible gift to meet people you connect with and want to give all of yourself to. To be able to risk that much of yourself to go all in with someone because why the fuck not? "
