“Contempt prior to investigation”
Daydream about my failure
Knowing that’s where that reality starts and ends
As a compound to the makings of a flawed theoretical capacity.

There are many crimes we’ve come to identify over the course of history; and many others we’ll continue to uncover as the world changes. But one that continues to get to me the most is the stealing of dreams.
I’m talking about breaking someones’ spirit till they choose not to do something they love.
This is perhaps one of the most evil things I’ve ever witnessed. And it may sound like I’m catastrophizing, but the truth is when someone has their dream stolen from them (either through devaluation or invalidation) — well, I feel the world has lost something.
Don’t let anyone break your spirit. Most people think they know everything– including what’s best for you. They don’t.
<<The following part is for lovers of the strawman>>
I’m not saying don’t listen to people entirely. I’m saying listen to people within reason. Don’t just flow.
