Your parents really hated themselves.
Why? Were they like that with everyone?
Or just their children?
Why?
They were definitely that, to themselves.
Why? Who said that to them?
Who would do such a thing?
What fear runs through a family so deeply
that they scar each other so much
until one day
a child
turns into a man
and finds his own worth.
And now
the hate can die.
Love, acceptance,
great healing,
healing for the world you touch
may take it's place.
Oh, Toph.
You're incredibly beautiful.
