​You have to act
                        as if it were possible
        to radically transform the world.
​                                 And you have to do it all the time.

​                                                           -Angela Davis

​some people 
when they hear your story.
contract. 
others
upon hearing
your story.
expand.
and 
this is how
you 
know.
