#reality is hard and imperfect and flawed and exciting and beautiful and lonely and full of life and happy and insane and perfect and lost

i just want Dear Reader taylor swift to know that we dont want another guiding light. She doesn't need to be perfect and make all the right decisions in order for us to look to her, because thats not what we are doing. Listening to her music, watching the art she makes out of her life just feels like hiking a long, sometimes scary trail, but feeling okay because you see footprints ahead of yours. "Someone else has been here. Someone else is Okay after this part. I'll be okay after this too."

And sometimes we're the footsteps around her too. We've remembered all too well too. We've fought in great wars before too.

Point is, We dont need to find a different guiding light. We are all ships on the water each with our own single little kerosene lantern but together it adds up. Together we shine so bright. The path isn't too dark anymore.
