This isn't exactly artsy, seeing as how simplistic it is (along with the fact that I didn't even draw the logo, nor originate the quote myself). Nonetheless, I wanted to share this for two reasons: the first being that a google image search failed to turn up anything similar to this that a) contained the quote and b) I deemed suitable for use as a phone wallpaper.

The second reason I felt the need to make this is because this quote really means a lot to me. I'm someone who tends to view things very negatively, almost as a matter of course. "The world isn't as bad as you think." Normally being told something along these lines feels like a platitude; a somewhat insincere thing others will tell you to cheer you up. But in this case, when you think about it, it's true the vast majority of the time (if you're anything like me, anyway). Having this little reminder every time I open my phone . . . I don't know, I feel like it can be helpful to me. Hopefully it can be to others among you, too.

I've been a lurker here for a long while. Maybe it's time for me to become a more active member. Maybe you'll see me around. Until then. *waves*
