Sometimes rules are rigid, Hard lines, set in stone, that should not be crossed. Sometimes rules are limp, As easily arranged as wet noodles, Vague and malleable.

When I open my diary from five years ago, it’s hard to believe that I lived that life and that that person was me. Five years ago, I thought I was happy, I thought I was whole, but I laugh now at how wrong I was. I laugh at how much growing I still had…
