questions with answers that only you can understand for yourself.

1- what are you searching for when you look in the mirror? what would make you really, really warm deep inside to see reflected back at you? what could you look like that could equate to feeling happy as opposed to looking good to others?

2- is there an alternative to imagining human connection through daydreams when you are lonely? is there an alternative that fills up emptiness in a more lasting way?

3- are you afraid of your own self and the gap between your existence and what you want your existence to be like, or are you afraid of other people hurting you? at what points do these two fears touch each other?

4- if your fear of something is permeating everything else inside you, would giving it a name and a face help? would the face be something you could show kindness to?

5- when people intimidate you, is it still possible for you to interact back with them on your own terms? are you trying to please them or please yourself?

6- what would you think of yourself if the people you greatly admired somehow hated you for reasons that were understandable yet not truly your fault? would you change yourself? would you be influenced by their standards in your growth? and would it really be a bad thing if you were?

7- can love be experienced by loving others in the most true and sincere and honourable way possible, and thinking of it no further than that? is that an experience of love, too, without factoring in the feelings being returned or not?

8- are you healthy and stable enough to currently make other people’s awfulness a concern of yours? is it right to fight for your beliefs without being able to protect yourself first?

9- what would you tell your childhood self? is it something you still want to be told, even now?

10- where are your past actions going? Are they held in a faraway vault, or do they still live inside you?
