Excerpts from The Book I'll Never Write

These and Those

These days I'm happier; full of life.
These days I look in the mirror and smile at my imperfections.
These days I'm grateful and conscious of the privileges I have.
These days overturn all of those nights.
Those nights of crying till 3 a.m.
Those nights of wondering if I'll ever be good enough.
Those nights of numbness.
Yeah.
.
.
.
These days I'm better.
