Truth




I was first shown Sarah Kay perform "B" (0:00-3:35) during eighth grade by my sixth grade language arts teacher. Since that first time, I have gone back to this poem countless times. I go back when everything's falling apart. I go back when I need a reality check. Sometimes, I just need to remind myself that I need to have hope and faith in this world. 

At 9:18, Kay introduces a list she uses in her classes: 10 Things I Know To Be True. I vaguely remember writing my own list in 8th grade. 
Here's my list of a few things I know to be true as of October 10, 2017:
  1. I love fictional worlds a little too much,
  2. Chocolate can always make me feel better.
  3. I always carry too much in my backpacks.
  4. I will not get over Psych being removed from Netflix.
  5. I have a lot more truths to discover.
What's something (or a few things) you know to be true?
