Today i found my cup of tea.
“These were the lovely bones that had grown around my absence: the connections - sometimes tenuous, sometimes made at great cost, but often magnificent - that happened after I was gone. And I began to see things in a way that let me hold the world without me in it. The events that my death wrought were merely the bones of a body that would become whole at some unpredictable time in the future. The price of what I came to see as this miraculous body had been my life.”
- The Lovley Bones; pg 320
Today was the day that my absence in the cold, silent halls of my home school echoed through this February afternoon. I became a ghost of one's imagination but i knew it wasn't true. People love to underestimate me and what i believe in, but yet again, i didnt know i was a role model to some. The ones who weren't confident in themselves. Wanted to blend in the crowd. Were too scared to be different. Some of them admire my outgoingness, while others were offended by my creative, yet free expression. Just knowing i changed someone's life have been today's "cup of tea", but learning that im a treat to some has cause my beverage to become some what bitter-sweet. darling, just send the sugar my way .
