I want to be the best person I can be for the sake of all the people and situations I find myself in.

For my parents, my sister, my niece, my friends and girlfriend, the people I’ve yet to meet, for who I was as a kid, for who I will be as an old man.

I don’t want to shut down when things get confusing or hard. I want to step up. There’s nothing not worth stepping up to. It is impossible to use logic to explain why we must love everything. But from the heart, it’s very easy to see why. The just nothing else to do. And following love all the way leads you to God. Everything is just a different face of God. Nothing is permanent because there is no face separate from God, just a temporary, unstable appearance. The true nature of all appearances is God.
