Listen!
Why do we talk out loud when we know we're alone?
Why is there no such thing as perfect hiding?
You know sometimes when you talk to yourself?
What if you're not?
What if no one is ever alone?
What if every single living being has a companion?
A silent passenger-a shadow?
What if the prickle on the back of your neck is the breath of something close behind you?
***************************************
Let me tell you about scared.
Your heart is beating so hard I can feel it through your hands.
There's so much blood and oxygen pumping through your brain it's like rocket fuel.
Right now you could run faster and you could fight harder, you could jump higher than ever in your life.
And you are so alert it's like you can slow down time.
What's wrong with scared?
Scared is a superpower.
It's your superpower.
There is danger in this room and guess what?
It's you.
Do you feel it?
