“I have hope
in who I am becoming.

I have belief in every scar and disgraceful word
I have ever spoken
or been told
because it is still teaching me
and I have hope in who I am becoming.

They say it takes 756 days to run to someone you love
and they also say that the only romance worth fighting for
is the one with yourself
and I know by now
that they say a lot of things,
people talking everywhere
without saying a word,
but if it took me all those years to learn myself
or teach myself
how to look into the mirror
without breaking it
I know for a fact that it was a fight worth fighting.

I stood up for my own head and so did my heart
and we are coming to terms with ourselves.
Shaking hands, saying 鈥漧et鈥檚 make this work
for we have places to go
and people to see
and we will need each other鈥�
So I have hope
in who I am becoming.

It鈥檚 July
and I have hope in who I am becoming.”

“It was a very ordinary day, the day I realised that my becoming is my life and my home and that I don't have to do anything but trust the process, trust my story and enjoy the journey. It doesn't really matter who I've become by the finish line, the important things are the changes from this morning to when I fall asleep again, and how they happened, and who they happened with. An hour watching the stars, a coffee in the morning with someone beautiful, intelligent conversations at 5am while sharing the last cigarette. Taking trains to nowhere, walking hand in hand through foreign cities with someone you love. Oceans and poetry.

It was all very ordinary until my identity appeared, until my body and mind became one being. The day I saw the flowers and learned how to turn my daily struggles into the most extraordinary moments. Moments worth writing about. For so long I let my life slip through my fingers, like water.
I'm holding on to it now,
and I'm not letting go.”
― Charlotte Eriksson, Empty Roads & Broken Bottles: in search for The Great Perhaps

“Living in this skin is hard and painful, most of the times, because I never volunteered to take this on. The daily sacrifice of heart over mind,
the forever ongoing task of explaining this and that,
and why I don鈥檛 want to look like this and
be like that
but still here I am and if this is the body I鈥檝e been given I鈥檓 sure as hell gonna make it work.”

“I seek the city because there is nothing sweeter than not being alone in your loneliness.”

“It could have been so beautiful.
The way I learned and got free and swore to never love another person
ever again
and it could have been so beautiful,
the way I actually did.”

“I will find comfort in the rhythm of the sea.”

“It was quite a beautiful thing, the way we simply just came to be, with no effort or trying and slowly we found each other鈥檚 hands in the dark. No chains or promises, just a simple sign of hope
that things will go on and get better
and that things and people and views are still out there, yet to be found.”

“What is this thing? trading passions for a tiny bit of acceptance.”

“You are to me like white islands, in a world of vast darkness.”

“If I stay close to the sea, I will go on well.”
