“ Don’t
google your name. Ever.
Don’t “search” for yourself on
anything that glows in the dark.
Don’t let your beauty be
something anyone can turn off.
Don’t edit your ugly out of your bio.
Let your light come from the fire.
Let your pain be the spark,
but not the timber.
Remember, you didn’t come
here to write your heart out.
You came to write it in.”
- Andrea Gibson
