Tickled Mind

“It’s a sad life, but I’d really like to fight for it. I don’t know how, though. There are a lot of uncertainties. But I’m going to dance my way through my fears. I have a dream like most humans do, and mine hasn’t died yet. I still have hope. I still have faith. I’m going to try my best to make it. I’m going to make myself proud one day.”

“A Letter To My Future Daughter I’ll have you one day, and I’ll love you with every inch of my soul. I’ll let you be whatever you want to be as long as you’re safe and happy. I’ll write poems about how you’re the greatest gift that I could ever have in my life, and I won’t embarrass you in front of your friends. I just want you to be free. I just want you to experience the happiness that I haven’t that much experienced in this existence of mine and seeing you happy, seeing you smile on sunny days will be the greatest hope on my rainy days because even though you don’t exist yet, daddy loves you so much, and daddy is doing his best to stay alive because he knows that you’re worth living for. You’re worth the sadness. You’re worth all the sorrow just to hold you one day in his arms, as he sees a beautiful human being filled with love. As he sees his entire universe in his arms. And he wouldn’t miss that for the world.”

“A ship in harbor is safe, but that is not what ships are built for.”
