Everyone's got the same insecurities as you

Do not be afraid
To show people the real you.”

“Sometimes in my very happiest moments, I feel like crying. My eyes grow dim, my heart seems to choke me. I would like to be sure, in such times of anguish, that everybody loves me; that there is nowhere in the world a sad dog behind a closed door, that no evil will ever come…”

Kiki-The-Demure: And then what dreadful thing happens?
