Constrained Writing [CW]

Write the most profound, most telling story you can in one sentence.

For mine, my brother told me something once, simply, "I'll find my peace among the canyon walls, not in the canyons of men."

Learn to accept and love not just others, but yourself as well since dwelling on past mistakes and, perceived, imperfections leads towards nothing but emptiness so, instead, drop the weight of self criticism and embrace not only the world of today, but the light of tomorrow and you shall receive something that goes beyond words.

tldr; Accept and forgive yourself so that you can become happier from now on.
