The world does not revolve around me.
I must remember this.
People ask me, "How do you do it? Isn't it hard?"
Yes, it is. It's so hard. To me, it's worth it. I just wonder if it will be in the end. I don't want to see the future, but I want reassurance. This is a world lacking in reassurance. Or even assurance.
We love flattery, even though we are not deceived by it, because it shows that we are of importance enough to be courted. -Ralph Waldo Emerson
