Things I have written and deleted

• Text messages that could hurt someone’s feelings
• Text messages that revealed too much about me in a space where I anticipated that vulnerability would not be met with care
• Writing that could get me into trouble with the government
• Project case-studies that made me look like an amateur developer

There is a certain fear with which I live my life. I want to come to terms with the fact that not everything can be achieved. Not everyone can be pleased, not every conflict can be avoided. Not in a single lifetime.

• I miss you

• I want to bite your nose off

• I think you're cute

• You're asking for too much

• Death to the IOF
