It might sound a little strange, but... that's exactly the kind of thing that gets discouraged when you're a toy. Having adventures, I mean. Letting yourself be lost. You're supposed to find your home and stay there, maybe even as long as it takes for you to sit on a shelf and gather dust, but —
[ she sighs quietly, almost reflectively. ] I think I just came to the realization that there could be more to life than that. Not that making a kid happy wasn't important, but... that it didn't have to come at the cost of me being happy, too.
We really are all stuck here in the same boat. And I think there are more of us who are willing to help each other out rather than try and go it alone. But you're right, it could be nice if we all had something to work towards. Building ourselves.
I mean it sounds great when you have a home and family to stay with, but it sounds awfully lonely when you don't have that. The place you're in might not be right for you either.
If it makes you feel better I think you made the choice. Sometimes you have to go out and do what's best for you. One of my best friends went through something similar. She ran from a cause she really believed in because the methods the people around her were using just weren't right. She ended finding us along the way and I think she's finally starting to find her own happiness.
I hope you found the same kind of happiness on your adventure.
I agree completely. I think there are plenty of people here willing to help out that just need a common goal to bring us together. We're stronger when we work together, we just need the chance to prove it.
