@neilhimself @michaelsheen @GoodOmensPrime Once, I thought "there are no hope for me." I was seventeen and I would have hated the whole world if I could have harnessed enough energy to do it. I didnt have the energy to stand up, or eat, or write. And writing was more important

for me than anything else. So I didnt hate the world but I wished that I could.
I stayed an entire month in bed with no hope of ever do anything with my life. And then I was healed but I still didnt have hope and had way too much problems to be really happy.

I persevered, because that was still the best option, and little by little my life brightened. I'm still struggling but now I can hope again. Many things helped me. Many peoples, many books, many songs, changed my life. Good Omens is one of them.
The book was published in 1990.

I was born after that. So where was that book all my life ?
Where was he ? Because I needed him so much ! I needed him to teach me it was OK to be friend with people that everybody tell you to leave alone because they are "wrong", to teach me that being weird, different or

or strange is OK. That you will find a friend one day who will love you and accept you. That you can find love even when you are an outcast. Even if you are the nerd that no one find attractive.Because they are wrong. You. Are. Wonderful and absolutly beautiful and no one else

will ever be like you.
Where was he to teach me that religion is not absolute and even if you believe, even if your faith is as hard as a rock, you still can doubt and still be right.That even if you have threw away religion you can still believe deep down and be right, even if

You can't stand all the peoples who have spit on your beliefs and had judged you for it. Where was he to teach me that even if it seem that's the end of the world, you can still fight and win 'cause you're not alone and what you believe in does matters ?
Where was that book

All my life ? With all the people who have read it. With the authors whom just wanted to make laugh the other and were so happy to write just for the fun of it. With God and their ineffable plan. I was probably not ready to read it before. That would have been a shame really.

2 weeks ago I found the the serie. I watched it in one day, a monday, the first day of the week, the first day of the rest of my life. It teached me others things like how everything look better with Queen in the background, that @michaelsheen is an amazing human being and I need

More of him in my life (I may have fall in love here but honestly who didnt ?), and that David Tennant can still makes me laugh and cry at the same time and he can makes my life a better place each time I see one of his performance. More than that (and a bit more seriously) those

Two actors had no shame saying that their character were in love with each other. @neilhimself said those two could be gay, trans, ace, aro or whatever we wanted we wanted them to be. And that's beautiful. Hell, they're more accepting of my way of thinkin than half of the people

I know and they don't have the faintest idea of who I am. And they talk about all of that whitout givin a fuck about what people think and why should them ? All @neilhimself ever really cared doing that serie was to make Terry Pratchett proud. I have no idea what Terry would have

Think but I know that anyone who have a friend like @neilhimself is lucky as fuck. You probably don't care about what I think but what you've done would make anyone proud. But what I know is that they have make God a women, Gabriel an asshole, the demons are funny, the nuns are

Hilarious, Adam's parents are so relatable, and that I never watched a serie twice (except Dr Who but that's another story) but I watched GO thrice. Oh. And the music is breathtaking. That story makes me talk to strangers and laugh with them and makes my parents agree that the

Angel and the demon are in love (and since when are they accepting of that sorts of things ? Can you feel my hope here ?). But more than anything it gave me the courage to write and share it.
The point here is not to be read. The point (apart from the whales and their big brain)

Is to have the courage to look at your fears and to confront them. Cause this story teached me that too. If you let fear (or other peoples' judgement) make your choices for you, you can't be happy. @neilhimself, Terry Pratchett, @michaelsheen,David Tennant, all the actors and all

The people who've made that book/serie have done their job. Now it's time that I do mine : to share their work as much as I can. If one people read/see the book/serie because of me then I'll be happy. If one of the author/actor/producer read that and understand how much their

Work matters, how much impact they have made on my life, how much I respect and love them, then I'll be happy. Whatever happens I'll be happy. Today I did something that I've never done before because of that story. And that's amazing ! Thank you for giving me that.

Thank you for your work.
Thank you for everything.
I love you all.
