Jesus, even the aversion to kids is painfully relatable. I can't handle being around them; you never know what they're going to do and they have no concept of privacy or personal space (or often, property). I end up looking for any excuse I can to get away.

That part with the kid made me tear up a bit...

Is it about wanting to return to those guileless days of being a child without worries? Or the fear of contaminating that smile with the darkness dwelling in our heart? Do I smile, because I'm happy that someone looked at me with such unbridled curiosity? Or because I'm afraid that if I don't, that smile will turn into aversion and contempt?

I guess sometimes even kindness hurts like that.
