"I have no special talents. I am only passionately curious."

Dear nobody in particular,

Talent.
Skill.
Usefulness.

I have none.

What the hell?

"The inability to open up to hope is what blocks trust, and blocked trust is the reason for blighted dreams."

Dear nobody in particular,

They don't trust me,
So I can't tell them.

I don't trust them,
So I can't tell them.

Will they
stop loving me?
blow up on me?
disown me?
not want me anymore?

Will I
hurt them?
destroy them?
ruin the family forever?
make them think they did something wrong?

I don't trust
that they will accept me.
that they will still love me.
that they will still believe in me.

They don't trust
that I have potential.
that I am able to flourish.
that I can do anything worthwhile.

There is no trust.
Trust needs hope.
There is no hope.
Hope needs trust.

As long as this wall of distrust is here,
Nothing important can pass through without
being scrutinzed.
being inspected by both sides.
being considered for a long time.

This is my Berlin Wall.
