012.

Look at the different ways people deal with their insecurities. Some people become loud, boisterous, as if if they can point out their own flaws first, or create superficial new ones, they win (because people won't see their real flaws). Some people withdraw, almost refuse to give the world any foothold to see insecurities. And yet, each method isn't enough, can't mask the pain (which eventually manifests in bulimia and cutting).

I've decided to start a center for cultural refugees. Come if you've decided to shun the ideologies of consumerism, nutritionism, of dualism and sterotypeism. Come if the superficiality of the world hurts more than the reasons for it. Come if you want to have a real conversation with someone, if you want to live a life without clocks, if you want to spend time with God and not feel like you're drowning. Come if you've ever thought there's a better way, or a better place, or a better life. Just come.
