I promise
To give you another chance, regardless of how many chances I've already given you before.
To never forget; your name, your face. What you mean to me.
To try not to forget the places I've been and the things I've learned, and any of the spectacular people I've met along the way.
To be open to every movie, every song, every sculpture.
To be extremely selective about the books I read and a little selective about the games I play, but to be open to anything at any time, and to always be on the lookout for new experiences and new genres of all sorts of artistic media.
To value more than just your appearance, to frown on people who disrespect themselves and to help people feel good about who they are and how they look, regardless of color and shape and where they're from.
To love people for their "mistakes" and share my belief that everything in life, no matter how little or how bad, happens for a reason. And that, no matter how hopeless things might seem, that life itself is a reward, that should be met with passion and determination.
To never learn a foreign language unless absolutely necessary, but to love everyone from everywhere, all around the world.
To pay attention to the words you say, even if you don't think I am. To adopt those words, to try to adopt a little piece of you along with me, so that you can become a part of me.
To never, ever hate. To distrust, to fear, to become disappointed, but never to hate. Always to forgive, and give second chances to the people who have nowhere else to turn, because there's far too much hatred and stubbornness in this world, and I want to be someone with a bit of malleability.
