I am not made to blend in.
I am as red as an evening sunset, a vibrant green spilling from the leaves of a dark forest. I meet people and see their souls, feel their voices echoing around me. And yet, as colorful as I am, as colorful as I know the world is, so often we are expected to fit in, to conform to a mold crafted for us; to act right, to speak right, to think right. That black-and-white place, that soulless, empty expectation, is one I will never find a way into. And you know what, I'm alright with that.
That's what this project is about.
That's what this project is about.
