Mchoratio - And Flights Of Angels Sing Thee To Thy Rest

17 year old: I'm depressed. I'm overwhelmed by choice. I feel like the stakes are so high that if I fail I could ruin everything forever. I feel a sense of obligation to my parents, but I don't think they understand me. Maybe none of this is worth it

self-destruction doesn’t always look like taking too many pills or cutting your skin open. sometimes it’s drinking coffee when you know caffeine gives you panic attacks. sometimes it’s crossing the street without looking both ways. sometimes it’s showering with the water a little too hot. sometimes it’s avoiding eye contact with your reflection in the mirror or ridiculing your problems rather than addressing them. sometimes it’s walking out without sunscreen in scorching heat and not wearing enough when it’s freezing out. self destruction isn’t always physical mutilation, mostly it’s masked as little things so never assume what someone may be going through just bc they don’t show you visible signs of suffering.

Guys, if you want to be a good artist and storyteller you need to absorb other media and influences beyond popular comics and movies and video games. Hell, even beyond visual art. Read novels, science articles, history books. Listen to podcasts, watch documentaries. Dip into different disciplines. Explore stuff outside your everyday. What you create and the pool of ideas you can pull out of is expanded by the knowledge you gain. Don’t do yourself a disservice by limiting your library. You never know when some weird shit you read about mushrooms could end up inspiring you or helping you solve a design/story problem.

My mother says I’m not ambitious enough. That I have no idea where I am going, and on the surface this seems true.

When you dig under, though, you see I have specific goals; too specific to declare a goal at all, most would say.

I want to teach history, I want to help a local library, I want to go to a cafe and be known for specific orders and little else, I want to be the person that you can go to and have the exact book your looking for. I want to be the person that takes care of the city birds, the person tending to plants abandoned in cigarettes and rubbish near shopping centers, the person always in a hurry yet never seen running, the person that will actually stop to talk to you even in a rush, the person that always has a spare bed just in case. The person that will take anyone out for food, the person that cries at small beauties, the person that is always smiling at small pranks that you have no idea if he was involved in, the person that will go to hell itself to get you what you want.

But all I can say to her is: “I’d like to teach history and have an apartment of my own.”

Because how could you explain that you’d like to live?
