internal combustion

If I believed in God I would say it was he who instilled in me this fire.

But I don’t and instead I believe in reality and science and the impacts smoke can have on 3-year-lungs. I used to look at my asthma like a weakness, instead of an obstacle. Because of it I have to run harder. Every breath is a struggle.

Every step, every pain, every gulp of air completely sacred, precious.
