Saying everyone is unique is kind of a paradox because if everyone's unique then being unique isn't unique. You feel me?

When I was little, mama whispered fairy tales into my ears Just before I closed my eyes. She described handsome princes with pretty eyes, riding in on white horses. Of beautiful girls with golden staircase locks, Red hoods and big bad wolves in disguise. Witches lurking in the wooded shadows, and of glistening poisoned fruit. Every night, I dreamed of being swept off my feet, By fair haired knights that traveled long and far, Following the sound of my voice. I longed for sword fights to defend my honor, And slayed dragon heads placed at my glass covered feet. I believed that I lived a fairytale. Until I grew up. Suddenly all the glitter and glamor Transformed into sirens and warning lights. I danced in the streets with dainty heels only to be chased by wolves Disguised as handsome princes in white chariots. I realized, the only reason knights travel long and far, Was to hunt and claim lonely voices. To keep broken the voice boxes as their trophies. The sword was placed in my hand. It was small, and shaped like a pepper spray can. Kings and paupers alike, placed bets for my honor. They fought to take it away from me. And the glass slipper I once wore, Cut into my bleeding feet As I ran away from my happy ending.

Aries — ripping off the band-aid, waking through a forest, being center stage, police sirens, fingernails tapping against a desk, boiling water, a sunflower field. Taurus — chocolate melting, the ticking sound of a clock, blanket forts, sliding across a wooden floor in your socks, using sticks as swords, sunsets from the hood of a car. Gemini — the scent that follows after you blow out a candle, how handwriting is like a voice, your first visit to a haunted house, a rigid spine, the sound of crunching leaves, church bells. Cancer — holding hands in a hospital, lemonade on the hottest day of the year, a psychic’s parlor, sage & lavender & vanilla, hot air balloon ride over the city, windmills. Leo — city life at night, an acid trip, paint splattered at the wall, bubblegum, a one-way ticket, broken mirrors. Virgo — fireflies in the summer, back of the class, pacing & the click clack of high heels, bleach, waves crashing, sun kissed skin. Libra — when the couple says “i do”, lucky charms, bonfires, finger painting, blowing kisses, ballet shows, sugar on the tip of your tongue, outstretched palms in the wrong direction. Scorpio — being stuck at the top of a ferris wheel, wind in your hair during a midnight car ride at 100 mph, skin on skin, magnets on the refrigerator, a ceiling fan in the dead of night, sticky notes, foxes in the bushes. Sagittarius — jet lag, a wolf howling, bad puns, five star restaurants, burning your tongue, chipped nail polish, walking barefoot through the mud, treehouses. Capricorn — a loaded gun, the first snow fall of the year when everything is still and silent, the first breath after a panic attack, sun showers, the dreamy state when you’re running on no sleep, candyland, breaking through the surface. Aquarius — cracking open a fortune cookie, city lights in the rain, scissors & wrapping paper, bats in caves, sneaking out for the first time, watching the sunrise with your best friends, a wildflower breaking through the cracks of a sidewalk. Pisces — a canoe on the lake at dawn, windchimes, spring, hundred year old trees, jazz music & feather boas, dream journals, glitter eyeshadow, art museums.

"How can a three-pound mass of jelly that you can hold in your palm imagine angels, contemplate the meaning of infinity, and even question its own place in the cosmos? Especially awe inspiring is the fact that any single brain, including yours, is made up of atoms that were forged in the hearts of countless, far-flung stars billions of years ago. These particles drifted for eons and light-years until gravity and change brought them together here, now. These atoms now form a conglomerate- your brain- that can not only ponder the very stars that gave it birth but can also think about its own ability to think and wonder about its own ability to wonder. With the arrival of humans, it has been said, the universe has suddenly become conscious of itself. This, truly, it the greatest mystery of all."
