Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist.

A good life is when you assume nothing, do more, need less, dream big, laugh a lot and realize how blessed you are.

"Wisdom means to choose now what will make sense later. I am learning everyday to allow the space between where I am and where I want to be, to inspire me and not terrify me."

We are the generation of the selfie and of self-induced sadness, born in the same year that three of my idols would commit suicide. Most poets die with the lights on, but we all plan on drowning. We are the generation of grounding lightning into coffee beans, of pulling strings from the hems of our dresses until we unravel, of leaving footprints in the gravel on the way to the edge of the world. I am a computer girl, and I was born in the year of the boar. Maybe that’s why I’m a whore, and my best friends are all pigs, and I dig my own grave every time I open my mouth. We are the generation of meaningless trophies, it’s true. My parents like to tell me: “you think that you deserve everything.” But we are a generation of scraping, watching our parents cry over housing prices and dying white clothes black to blend in. We are children of the wind, born to land wherever freedom settles us and we take our parent’s debt with us everywhere. We are a generation of change and of chains, and mostly I think we deserve any fame we can get: thirty people hitting “like” on a status. Girls posting photos of themselves naked have earned every moment of bliss they receive from finding themselves beautiful in their own skin. We are a generation of women airbrushed to perfection and daughters taking pills to feel pretty again. And mostly, I don’t like to make sweeping generalizations about my friends but I think it’s okay if at the end of some days we feel like relaxing, taking a photo of our dinner, telling two hundred near-strangers how lucky we feel to be existing anywhere at all.

this is sucriya. she accessorizes her catholic school uniform with a different scarf every day, which every teacher writes her up for. when my principal walked up to her and pointed to her scarf and said “what’s this?” she said 

"sister, that’s fashion"

and just walked away
