My mom told me, it's better to trust people than to doubt them. She said that people aren't born with kind hearts. When we're born, all we have are desires for food and material things. Selfish instincts, I guess. But she said that kindness is something that grows inside of each person's body, but it's up to us to nurture that kindness in our hearts. That's why kindness is different for every person. We're all born with selfish desires, so we can all relate to those feelings in others. But kindness is something made individually by each person, so it's easy to misunderstand when others are trying to be kind to you.

They say that we should love ourselves first before other people learn to love us, but it's not as easy as it seems. Sometimes, we need someone to love us and accept us first, then we would earn to see ourselves through that person's eyes and learn to love ourselves.
It's okay to feel weak sometimes. It's okay to be afraid. The important thing is that we face our fears. That's...that's what makes us strong.
Stupid ocean! Ya want me to kill you? Huh??

Be selfish, say what you want once in a while. It's okay to let yourself be sad.
