"Why don't you want me to succeed?"
"Because I never have, alright? I wouldn't know how to help you or be able to give you advice because I don't know what it's like to fulfill your dreams or make something of yourself! If you... If you do it, God, when you do it I know you'll find someone along the way that's better than me. It's selfish but please baby, I need you to fail."
- I will not shrink because you're afraid of what I will grow up to be.
- (Inspired by my father and his unwillingness to support me.)
