You have perfect timing, do you know that? I spent all of today in bed, bawling my eyes out, pitying myself and considering different forms of self-harm when I randomly got an email from Tumblr with your message in it. This kinda made me tear up but in a good way, which was refreshing.
I'm glad you didn't post it Anon. I don't question those who do post Anon questions in my ask; everyone has their own prerogatives, but it's still nice to be able to put a name/face/association to the message nonetheless.

“The true measure of a man is not his intelligence or how high he rises in this freak establishment. No, the true measure of a man is this: how quickly can he respond to the needs of others and how much of himself he can give.”
