Elusive mayfly, tears of happiness.

You know what?

I've been blind.

In the past, people have done some really awful things to me. It's affected who I am and my personality and for years, and I hated people because of it. It made me angsty, moody, even scared of people.

But now I understand that it is because of these people, because of these acts of cruelty, that I am the person I am today. They have shaped me, and now there are finally others who will listen, who care, who will understand. Everybody deserves a second chance. Even the people who have wronged me, they deserve an explanation from me. I will not forget the shell, or the past, but I will use them for guidance. I will use them to remember that sometimes everybody wants to wither and die, sometimes people just need somebody to be there, that once I was there too, and I was saved. Saved by the grace that I hope I will someday find, that I will someday use as a tool of love to find the kindness in people's hearts.

There is no hate in me, and if they cannot accept that, then they are not worth it.

I love everybody. ♥
