"Again, we are daily forced to choose between depression and anxiety. Depression results from the wounding of the individuation imperative; anxiety results from moving forward into the unknown. That path of anxiety is necessary because therein lies the hope of the person to more nearly become an individual. My analyst once said to me, “You must make your fears your agenda.” When we do take on that agenda, for all the anxiety engendered, we feel better because we know we are living in ‘bonne foi’ [good faith] with ourselves.
Courage is not the absence of fear. It is the perception that some things are more important to us than what we fear."

"I use to be someone who laughed and cried of joy. Now I laugh to distract everyone from the pain that’s in my eyes and now I cry tears of pain. I use to be somebody. I use to be somebody that was untouched by the world and all the wrong and hurt people could do to you. I use to be somebody who thought family was everything until I learned that even family will let you drown and then ask why you can’t swim. I use to be somebody who believed in love and fate until fate kissed another girl and touched her the same way he touched me later that night. I use to be somebody who went to bed to sleep but now I sleep to escape my own thought’s. I use to be somebody who enjoyed life and the people in it. That was until the world swallowed me whole and spit me back out and let the vultures that I called family and friend eat away at what was left of me. I use to be somebody who you could count on, now I can’t even count on myself. I use to be somebody who believed that there are good people in the world but there isn’t. I’ve learned that people are good until to you until they are done with you. I use to be somebody who tasted of laughter and warmth. I use to be somebody who sang in the shower. But now… now I’m somebody who tastes of heartache and pain. I’m somebody who goes to sleep at night because that’s the only time when I feel okay. I use to be somebody and now I don’t even recognize myself in the mirror. I use to be somebody who was happy but now I’m starting to think that I never tasted it in the first place."

In Japanese, they don’t say “moon,” they say “tsuki,” which literally translates to “moon,” and I think that’s how language works.
