We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all women-men-people are created equal & that they are endowed by their Creator with an ability to CRUSH THE F### out of FAKE-ASS SH!T!
_________
Fake shit, fake shit, fake shit.
Fake.
Fake.
FAKE!!
Fake perfection.
Fake intention.
Fake holding-it-all-together
While falling apart inside.
. . .
Fake that’s in your laughter.
Fake that’s in your soul.
Fake filling the void with more fake
Fake coming up for more.
And more…
A n d m o r e . . .
. . .
Fake smiles, fake friends, fake money.
Fake breasts, fake hair, fake nails.
Fake love, fake hugs, fake ugly,
Fake anyone who cares.

Why, guys?
And how?
And when did this become normal??
Because call me FREAKING CRAZY, guys, but last time I checked, this wasn’t effing normal.
Call me REAL INSANE, but last time I checked,
Here’s what was normal:
. . .
IMPERFECTION
Samyra Serin
Last time I checked, imperfection was normal.
Last time I checked, none of us could keep it all together all of the time (& none of us had to).
Last time I checked, guys, we were human– not mutants, not gods, just human.
Last time I checked, we were Imperfect Perfection defined.
. . .
STRUGGLE
Noukka Signe
Last time I checked, we were all struggling through shit.
Not just one of us– not just you, not just me– all of us.
Every. Single. One.
Last time I checked, this was normal.

CONNECTION
barnabywasson
Last time I checked, it was normal to trust.
Last time I checked, it was human nature— to help and to be helped, to love and to be loved.
Last time I checked, it was as simple as this: “I need. I ask. I am held.”
