Of course, in some aspects there are changes, ones that have made me more fragile. After a certain point in life, I never even expected such frail reactions from myself; yet, it was all so abrupt, I just couldn't fight it off, or maybe I just didn't want to...

But, at the moment, the ones who I'm delicate towards, my weaknesses, they are also the reason behind all my strength.

Yes, there is rejuvenation, always. But there's also the collection of callouses we don't usually talk about; the ones some of us have tucked away or chose to ignore. One heartbreak after the other, one failure after the other, these callouses develop in those areas, so that next time our dumbasses don't get hurt as badly.

We will fall again, we will learn again, but the pain won't be as penetrable.
