My whole life I've been telling myself 'don't be afraid'.

And it's only now i am realizing how stupid that is. Don't be afraid. Like saying 'don't move out of the way when someone tries to punch you' or 'don't flinch at the heat of a fire'or 'don't blink'. Don't be human.

I'm afraid and you're afraid and we are all always gonna be afraid, because that's the point.

What i should be telling myself is 'be afraid, but do it anyway.'

Live anyway.
