You've heard that old allegory of the butterfly? I always hated it 'cause it's not anything like what people really go through. We don't grow wings, and we don't come out beautiful where we used to be inch worms.

We adapt better than any animal there ever was and we do it by excavating things inside of ourselves. And we choose to do it. I think everyone here has to learn how to do that; it's not about giving up who you are.
