sometimes people ask us the wrong question so we cannot give them the right answers but the worst part is when we become those people and we ask ourselves the wrong questions because we are terrified of hearing the right answers.
one day I decided that I was beautiful, and so I carried out my life as if I was a beautiful girl. I wear colors that I really like, I wear makeup that makes me feel pretty, and it really helps. It doesn't have anything to do with how the world perceives you. What matters is where you see. Your body is your temple, it's your home, and you must decorate it.

“Do not fall in love
With people like me.
people like me
will love you so hard
that you turn into stone
into a statue where people
come to marvel at how long
it must have taken to carve
that faraway look into your eyes
Do not fall in love with people like me
we will take you to
museums and parks
and monuments
and kiss you in every beautiful
place so that you can
never go back to them
without tasting us
like blood in your mouth
Do not come any closer.
people like me
are bombs
when our time is up
we will splatter loss
all over your walls
in angry colors
that make you wish
your doorway never
learned our name
do not fall in love
with people like me.
with the lonely ones
we will forget our own names
if it means learning yours
we will make you think
hurricanes are gentle
that pain is a gift
you will get lost
in the desperation
in the longing for something
that is always reaching
but never able to hold
do not fall in love
with people like me.
we will destroy your
apartment
we will throw apologies at you
that shatter on the floor
and cut your feet
we will never learn
how to be soft
we will leave.
we always do.”
Do Not Fall in Love With People Like Me ( x )
 
we were meant to lose the people we love.
how else would we know important they are?
+ F. Scott Fitzgerald
 
i am pretty sure when we fall in love, we don't realize it. we just like that person, and eventually we start defending them, and get jealous if they talk to another person. we always want to be with them because they make our crappy lives worth living for a few hours a day. they take our pain away; make us laugh, make us mad, make us sad, embarrassed. but no matter what they make us feel, we are all coming back for more. that is just how love it.
 
i don't mean to close the door but for the record my heart is sore you blew through me like bullet holes left stains on my sheets, and stains on my soul.
when at last you find someone to whom you feel you can pour out your soul, you stop in shock at the words your utter - they are so rusty, so ugly, so meaningless and feeble from being kept in the small cramped dark inside you so long.
+ Sylvia Plath
when you lose someone you love, you are changed in one of two ways:
you either become bitter or better.
the magic thing about home is that it feels good to leave,
and it feels even better to come home.
+ The Probability of Miracles
there are two types of waiting -
there is the waiting you do for something you know is coming, sooner or later - like waiting for the 6.28 train, or the school bus, or a party where a certain handsome boy might be. and then there is the waiting for something you don't know is coming. you don't even know what it is exactly, but you are hoping for it. you are imagining it and living your life for it. that is the kind of waiting that makes a fist in your heart.
I am jealous of those who think more deeply, who write better, who
draw better, who look better, who live better, who love better than I.
+ Sylvia Plath
change will not come into your life until you change yourself. everything you think, everything you feel is essentially a wish you have placed on the winds of the Universe. Everything. No exceptions. those feelings we feel are wishes as well, stronger wishes than spoken words, written words and even visualization. Change those feelings and you change yourself.

others everything. it is not my fault that I can't stop loving you though you did.

+ Lana Del Rey
one of the hardest things you will ever have to do is to
stop loving someone because they have stopped loving you.
sometimes being inside my own head is so exhausting it makes me want to cry.
as we get older, we learn to hate people more and more.
why? because you learn sometimes that it's just you and the world.
Throughout life you will meet one person who is unlike any other. you could talk to this person for hours and never get bored, you could them things and they won't judge you. this person is your soulmate, your best friend. don't ever let them go.
the biggest mistake one can make, is losing yourself in the process
of valuing someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too.
In college, we don’t say “I love you”, we say “I have 5 essays, two finals, and 3 group projects due in the next 8 days” which translates to “I would like to be crushed by a train” and I think that’s pretty cool.
 
“Don’t feel guilty if you don’t know what you want to do with your life. The most interesting people I know didn’t know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives. Some of the most interesting 40-year-olds I know still don’t.”

understand you. and there care others who will understand without you even speaking a word.
 
everyone is just looking for reasons to wake up and get out of bed, some do
it for nothing but a kiss, perhaps a cup of coffee, others have a harder time; no train to catch, no hand told hold, no reasons at all.
I could never pretend something I didn't feel. I could never make love if I
didn't love. and if I loved I could no more hide the fact than change the color of my eyes.

They told me that to make her fall in love, I had to make her laugh.
But every time she laughs, I am the one who falls in love.
+ Tommaso Ferraris
you don't want to believe it, but you know it's true. that boy isn't really in love with you. he made you think you were the one. but he got what he wanted, and now he's done. he will come back someday, apologies and all. hoping that again you will fall. don't let him do that to you again. you are better than that, just walk away.
Holding onto anger is like drinking poison and expecting the other person to die.
+ Buddha
I think the more you get to know someone, the more beautiful they come to you. sure, the mystery goes away… but when you see something deeper, that means you connected with them…they become a part of you.
I might hug other guys, I might laugh with other guys, and I might text other guys, but none of them will ever mean as much to me as you do.
I crave space. it charges my batteries. it helps me breathe.
being around people can be so exhausting, because most of them
love to take and barely know how to give. except for a rare few.
+ Kate Kacvinsky
 
just because I don't give you my heart as soon as you show interest doesn't men I don't like you, or am 'throwing you away'. It might mean I don't know you well enough to do so, and I want my heart protected. It would be cool if that was respected.
one word and start a friendship. one word and end
a fight and one call and save a relationship.
sometimes I am terrified of my heart; of its constant hunger for
whatever it wants. the way it stops and starts.
+ Edgar Allan Poe
don't leave the person who you love for the person you like,
because the person you like will leave you for the person they love.
do not chase people. be you and do your own thing and work hard.
the right people who belong in your life will come to you, and stay.
I don't want to be married just to be married. I can't think of anything

don't ever play with someone's feelings. you could
win the game but you could lose that person forever.
it's one thing to tell her that she is beautiful,
but it is another thing to make her feel it too.
All we want is something to take away the pain, something to make things better. Something to make us smile. We want someone to love, someone who will be there, and we want a hand to hold. Not only is it what we want, it's what we need. After a while, you get sick of being alone, and you get sick of the pain. That's when we need someone to love. We need someone to walk into our life, and we need them to be there for us. They have to be there, and they have to give us good times and make us smile. They might make us sad once in a while, but as long as they usually take the pain away, that's what matters.
 
It's healthy to admit you're not okay. It's okay not to be okay. It's brave. But don't let it win. Be sad. Have your moment, your day or week. Then do something about it and be happy for yourself.
I still miss you, but not like I did before. The intense aching I felt isn't there anymore. I still whisper your name, though not as often as I used to. Now it may be once before the day is through. I still hear your voice replaying in my mind, but it's fading now. Soon, silence I will find. I still long for you, to feel your touch, but it's not like before. I don't dream it as much. I still think about you and wonder how you are, but my feelings have changed and they don't go as far. I still feel you sometimes. Maybe you're thinking of me or maybe it's just a little memory of how it used to be. I still love you but it's just not as strong because I'm letting you go now, so we can both move on. You still have a piece of my heart because I always feel you here. Now I'm hoping and praying that that, too, will quickly disappear. This will be my last goodbye, I've nothing else to say. Everything I felt for you can now just fade away.
I mean, if you were to find a shattered mirror, find all the pieces, all the shards and all the tiny chips, and have whatever skill and patience it took to put all that broken glass back together so that it was complete once again, the restored mirror would still be spider webbed with cracks, it would still be a useless glued version of its former self, which could show only fragmented reflections of anyone looking into it. Some things are beyond repair. And that was me.
People don't change. They adjust, but underneath they are who they are. People just become better at covering up their flaws.
There's a thin line between enough and too much. Whether it's the alcohol you consume, the cigarettes you smoke, or the love you waste, that lines crossed by every single one of us.

Even though you may want to move forward in your life, theres always something holding you back. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life.
The important thing is to not be bitter over life's disappointments. Learn to let go of the past and recognize that every day won't be sunny. And when you find yourself lost in the darkness of despair, remember that it is only in the black of night that you see the stars, and those stars lead you home.
For some, they think that letting go is one way of expressing how much you love the person. Most relationships tend to fail. Not because the absence of love. Love is always present. It’s just that one was being loved too much and the other wasn’t being loved enough.
“But we joke and laugh. Otherwise we would start screaming.”
— Charles Bukowski
You are still young. Do not make your life miserable by thinking problems. Instead, always think that in every problem, there is a solution, and everything will all be okay. Do what you think is right. Take risks, try new things, laugh and live life as if there is no tomorrow, for the next years of your life, you will have no choice but to be more responsible so enjoy while you are still young and vibrant.

fucking dean winchester who reads kurt vonnegut and harper lee and can shoot a gun with the best of them and knows how to talk to kids and doesn’t trust easily but loves fiercely and is the best damn hunter the world has ever seen and drinks too much because he cares too much and makes the greatest homemade burgers and keeps a photo of his mother by his bed and ugh.
The hurt began to fade and it was easier to just let go. At least I thought it was. But in every boy I met in the next few months, I found myself looking for you, and when the feelings got too strong I'd write you another letter. But I never sent them, in fear of what I might find. By then, you'd gone on with your life and I didn't want to think about you loving someone else. I wanted to remember us like we were that summer. I didn't want to ever forget that.
Everyone has a certain part of their lives, where they truly wish they could just freeze time. Whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come. Whether it was just a moment, a whole day, or a whole summer. Everyone has a time in their life, when they wish everything would just stop. The world would stop turning and people would stop changing. Because to them, at that time, everything was perfect.

“So what makes a person ‘noble’? Certainly not making sacrifices; even those burning with lust make sacrifices. Certainly not following some passion, for there are contemptible passions. Certainly not that one does something for others without selfishness: perhaps no one is more consistently selfish than the noble one. —Rather, the passion that overcomes the noble one is a singularity, and he fails to realize this: the use of a rare and singular standard and almost a madness; the feeling of heart in things that feel cold to everyone else; a hitting upon values for which the scale has not yet been invented; a sacrifice on altars made for an unknown god; a courage without any desire for honours; a self-sufficiency that overflows and communicates to men and things. Hithero, then, it was rarity and the unawareness of this rarity that made it noble. ”
— Friedrich Nietzsche, “The ultimate noblemindedness.”
 
"Even if you think the flame has died, there's at least one lyric that'll hit that last hot spot, and then you'll find yourself as fucked as you were the day you lied and said you never wanted to see him again."
Pain comes in all forms. In the small twinge, a bit of soreness, the random pain, and the normal pains we live with everyday. Then there's the kind of pain that you just can't ignore. A level of pain so great that it blocks out everything else. It makes the rest of the world fade away until all we can think about is how much we hurt. How we manage our pain is up to us. We ride it out, embrace it, ignore it, run from it, and for some of us, the best way to manage the pain is to just push through it.
 
So, you’ll come across so many people in your life. Ones you think will stay in your life, stay with you forever. You come across people you will love, very much. But sometimes love isn’t enough to tackle all the obstacles in life and you will have to deal with the heartbreak of knowing that that person you love is gone and you’re left, alone, to try your very hardest to fall out of love. To do something you never thought you’d have to do. Just keep your head held high. Don’t let it get to you, don’t fall apart. Clear your heart and let it go. And when it comes around again, let love in. Because you never know.
Sometimes the only thing that people see is what you did. When in fact, they should be looking at why you did it.
“‘Selflessness’ has no value in heaven or on earth; all great problems demand great love, and only strong, round, secure minds who have a firm grip on themselves are capable of that.”
— Friedrich Nietzsche
 
There are times when I doubt everything. When I regret everything you've taken from me, everything I've given you, and the waste of all the time I've spent on us.
"She wants him. She can't deny it. She's just so confused. Because when she thinks back to the day he shattered her, she trembles at the thought of feeling like that again."
As you grow old, you learn more. If you stayed at twenty-two, you'd always be as ignorant as you were at twenty-two. Aging is not just decay, you know. It's growth. It's more than the negative that you're going to die, its also the positive that you understand you're going to die, and that you live a better life because of it.
But mostly, I cried because my life had been going full speed for so long and now it had just stopped, like running right into a big brick wall, knocking the wind and the fight right out of me. And I didn’t know if I ever even wanted to get up and start breathing again.
They say that once you hit rock bottom, things can only get better. But sometimes you never hit rock bottom. Sometimes life’s a black hole and you just keep on falling. No slowing down, no turning around, no stopping. You just fall forever.
I don't think feelings change, nor people. I think situations change. I know that it's possible to dislike someone after loving them so much or to love someone after feeling so much hate towards them but, it's not because people change, it's because it's not the same anymore. It's because something made you think differently, something opened your eyes, something caused you to see everyday the way it is at last. It's like days. Days can be cloudy, or days can be sunny but days don't change, the weather does. And nothing can play a part in that or fix that, they can just let it be.
  
People think they know you. They think they know how you're handling a situation. But the truth is, no one knows. No one knows what happens after you leave them, when you're lying in bed or sitting over your breakfast alone. They don't know what's going on inside your head--the mind-numbing cocktail of anger and sadness and guilt. This isn't their fault. They just don't know. And so they pretend and they say you're doing great when you're really not. And this makes everyone feel better. Everybody but you.
Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth. You are here to risk your heart. You are here to be swallowed up. And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left, or hurt, or death brushes near, let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples falling all around you in heaps, wasting their sweetness. Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could,
“I still believe, in spite of everything, that people are truly good at heart.”
- Anne Frank
Do you ever get that feeling where you don't want to talk to anybody? You don't want to smile and you don't want to fake being happy. But at the same time you don't know exactly what's wrong either. There isn't a way to explain it to someone who doesn't already understand. If you could want anything in the world it would be to be alone. People have stopped being comforting and being alone never was. At least when you're alone no one will constantly ask you what is wrong and there isn't anyone who won't take 'I don't know' for an answer. You feel the way you do just because. You hope the feeling will pass soon and that you will be able to be yourself again, but until then all you can do is wait.
I could be with anyone in the world and be content, but I stay with you because
when I am with you, everything is better than I could have ever hoped for.

i have to trust my instincts and let go of my fear of regret. if it was meant to be happen, it will happen. fate has its funny ways. it is just a matter of time and the right moment. fate exists, but it can only take you so far, because once you are there it is up to you to make it happen.

even if he wanted to be back with you, he wouldn't tell you. you are going to realize he does't care about you anymore, and he won't be the first person you call when you are upset. he won't be the one to put the smile back on your face. and yeah, it's going to hurt, it's going to hurt a lot. but you know what you are going to do? you are going to hold your head up. you are going to show him you are better than him and you don't need him in your life. you are going to prove to him that he made the biggest mistake of his life by letting you go. you never really even needed him anyways.
 
 
maybe i was wrong in thinking that we were meant to be and that we were made for each other. maybe we were never supposed to fall in love the way we did. hell, we probably weren't even supposed to meet when we did, or maybe we shouldn't have met at all. but i know this much, if we aren't meant to be I don't know why I can't seem to come to terms of saying goodbye to you. and if we weren't supposed to fall in love then it was the most beautiful mistake i have ever made. if i hadn't met you, i probably wouldn't be the person i am today. i loved you with everything i had in me.
“I cannot stand small talk, because I feel like there’s an elephant standing in the room shitting all over everything and nobody is saying anything.

sometimes the hardest thing to let go of is something you never really had. what could have happened - didn't. it is just the way the cookie crumbles. this is my goodbye to you. i will never forget the way you made me smile.
i began to realize how important it was to be an enthusiast in life. if you are interested in something, no matter what it is, go at it full speed ahead. embrace it with both arms, hug it, love it, and above all become passionate about it. lukewarm is no good. hot is no good, either. white hot and passionate is the only thing to be.
+ Rolad Dahl
have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that person was too afraid to let you? too many of us stay walled up because we are too afraid to care too much, for fear that the other person does not care as much, or at all. have you ever dined your feelings for someone because of your fear of rejection was just too hard to handle? we tell lies when we are afraid, afraid of what we don't know, afraid of what others think, afraid of what will be found out about is. but every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear grows stronger.
what is worse? new wounds which are so horribly painful or old wounds that should have healed years ago, and never did? maybe our old wounds teach us something. they remind us where we have been and what we have overcome. they teach us lessons about what to avoid in the future. that what we like to think. but that is not the way it is, is it? some things we just have to learn over and over and over again.
+ Meredith, Grey's Anatomy
 
your biggest challenge isn't someone else. it is that ache in your lungs and the burning in your legs. the voice inside of you that screams can't. but you don't listen, you push harder and then you hear the voice inside you whisper CAN. then you discover that the person you thought you were is no match for the one you really are.
sorry, but i can't just go turn off how i feel. you kill me, you build me up,
but just to watch me break. i know what i should do, but i just can't walk away.
 
eventually, we were so different, and moving in such different crowds, that it was hard to believe we had ever been close at all. in my photo albums though, there was page after page of proof.

don't hold on because you think there will be no one else. there will always be someone else. you have got to believe that you are worth more than being repeatedy hurt by someone who doesn't really care, and believe that someone will see what you are really worth and treat you the way you should be greatest.
I wish i could achieve a settled relationship like that. Someone always to come home to, someone always interested in what you are doing, and helping you over the tough spots, helping each other. i have come to love that line, 'until death do us apart'. it always seems to go well for a time, and then something happens. maybe it's me.

to me it's all about trust and loyalty. i need someone i can trust to be myself with. someone who won't spill my secrets to another person, even if it's someone who they trust and are close to. i need someone who is loyal. i have had too many people just leave from my life - walk out, just like that. too many who have replaced me. i need someone who won't simply ditch me for someone else because they are more fun, or more open, or belong to another crowd. I need someone I can count on. because i would be willing to do all of that for someone, and so much more.

Inteviewer: Your boyfriend is Jensen Ackles from Supernatural. Do you cringe when he makes out with other girls on the show?
Danneel: I don't cringe, but he does make out with a different hot chick every week. His character is a big womanizer, so he's always talking about their t*** and a****. Usually he ends up killing them, because they're evil demons, so I get my revenge in the end.

If they want to be in my life then they will make an effort to. No need to waste my time on people who don't matter. I am done trying to save friendships and trying to keep in touch with people who I used to be close with.
people come and people go, but i don't ever want to
say goodbye to you, i only want to say goodnight.

including great hits such as

bonus track: I can’t tell what that person over there identifies as and now I’m confused but slightly aroused
with the big finale: I dont even care anymore just have sex with me
it's better to love someone who's far and craves to be with you than to

“I saw that you were perfect and so I loved you. Then I saw that you were not perfect and I loved you even more.”
“Dean doesn’t like to talk about it, but there’s a humanistic quality to him, Dean needs that, he needs that from his brother, from Cas, from his father, from Bobby. He grabs that person and hangs on. But he’s not very forgiving when he’s betrayed.”

“I no longer need you to fuck me as hard as I hate myself.
Make love to me
like you know I am better than the worst thing I ever did.
Go slow.
I’m new to this
but I have seen nearly every city from a rooftop without jumping.
I have realized the moon did not have to be full for us to love it.
We are not tragedies
stranded here beneath it. If my heart really broke every time I fell from love
I’d be able to offer you confetti by now
but hearts don’t break, y’all,
they bruise and get better.
We were never tragedies.
We were emergencies.
You call 9 – 1 – 1.
Tell them I’m havin’ a fantastic time.”

never leave a girl without giving her a reason. it doesn't matter if you think it will hurt her feelings or make you look like a jerk. you need to tell her the truth no matter what. leaving her without a reason will literally tear her apart. she will always in the back of her mind wonder what it was she did wrong. wonder if it's because she isn't pretty enough or if she isn't good enough for you, when it reality you just didn't have the courage to tell her like it was. man up, tell her exactly why you are leaving. save her the tears ad the heartache.
sometimes i start to miss you and then i realize how
sad you made me then i start to hate you again.
i want to believe that I am not wrong. I want to believe that life isn't full
of darkness. Even if storms come to pass, the sun will shine again.
no matter how painful and hard the rain may beat down on me.
+ Natsuki Takaya
you don't actually need labels in relationships, what you need is consistency.
you just need to know they are not going to wake up in the morning and feel differently.
if you would have just listened to her, maybe you would have understood. maybe instead of thinking you knew everything, let go of your ego for a while then you would start to get to really know her. and maybe if you would have thrown away your fears of getting hurt, and just loved her, maybe you two would have made it.
Every girl is expected to have Caucasian blue eyes, full Spanish lips, a classic button nose, hairless Asian skin with a California tan, a Jamaican dance hall ass, long Swedish legs, small Japanese feet, the abs of a lesbian gym owner, the hips of a nine year old boy, the arms of Michelle Obama and doll tits. This is why everyone is struggling.

I am too shy to tell you how I feel, so I will hide behind timid smiles and soft

one solid thing i can say is that fear is not necessarily a bad thing. it's something that, as your get older, you can get a bit more comfortable with. fear is a very motivating thing in life. you should not be crippled by it - use it instead.

I have learned that you should never put off saying 'I love you' in
any relationship as long as you sincerely mean it. Otherwise,
you may spend the rest of your life regretting it.
I traveled across the world, from the ruins of New York to the fusion mills of China. Right across the radiation pits of Europe. But if Martha Jones became a legend, then that’s wrong because my name isn’t important. There’s someone else. The man who sent me out there, the man who told me to walk the earth. And his name is The Doctor. He has saved your lives so many times and you never even knew he was there. He never stops, he never stays, he never asks to be thanked. But I’ve seen him, I know him. I love him. And I know what he can do.

I don't deserve you and you have realized this. I can't make
you happy, I can't make your day better, I try harder than you would believe,
but no matter what I do, I can't be perfect for you. I just can't.
you know what I can't understand? you have all these people telling you all
the time how great you are, smart, and funny, and talented, and all that,
I mean endlessly. I have been telling you for years. So why don't you believe it?

sometimes you need to let go, because you will never find the
right person if you are still with the wrong one.
maybe you just have to live for the small things, like being called pretty or
someone picking up the pen you dropped, or laughing so hard that your
stomach hurts. maybe that's all that really matters at the end of the day.

Don’t be gentle. Love me, but not gently. I need to know that your desperation, your missing, has been as great as mine. I need to feel in the fervor of your touch that you have longed for this as much as I have. I need to feel how you’ve missed me.
I'll always want him. Until every sun goes dark in every sky, until I am nothing more than long-forgotten cosmic dust, I will want him. And even then I suspect my particles will long for his.
My heart still aches in sadness and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you, no one will ever know.
We all carry these things inside that no one else can see. They hold us down like anchors. They drown us out at sea. I look up to the sky, there mya be nothing there to see. But if I don't believe in him, why would he believe in me?
I wish I could undo everything I did that made me lose you.
secondhand embarrassment from fics is the worst thing ever because you’re blushing and flailing and you just want out but it’s noT EVEN HAPPENING TO YOU SO LIKE YOU’RE JUST FORCED TO SIT THERE AND BE RED AND HAVE NO LEGITIMATE REASON FOR WANTING TO SINK INTO THE FLOOR AND DIE

"Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure." -Stephen King
I love you in a way that cripples me. Leaving you behind, you leaving me behind, those are thoughts that leave me reeling with worry. I am the moss that has grown onto a tree, you. I can't exist without you.
 
 
 
The loneliness of my independence sinks deep into my blood. It rushes through my veins with a fierce, pulsing refrain: you are alone, it whispers, you are all alone.
I keep thinking of how much I love talking to you. How good you look when you smile. How much I love your laugh. I daydream about you off and on, replaying pieces of our conversations; laughing at funny things that you said or did. I've memorized your face and the way that you look at me. I catch myself smiling again at what I imagine.
 
In my memory, I wrote you down in ink. I never want to erase your story, even with the tragedy it brings.
is ?????/????//?? an emotion
 
Then one day, you stopped calling. I figured it was a phase, but then I saw you. You never said hi, but you were high. I could tell that you traded me in for your addiction.
 
 
If there is anything I have learned in falling in love with you, it's that if we were to ever go our separate ways and I was married to the 'man of my dreams' if I ever saw you or looked into your deep brown eyes, I'd still remember and feel everything I felt when our love was so alive. What I'm saying is, I will always love you, even if we don't last forever, our love will.
There's this place in me where your fingerprints still rest, your kisses still linger, and your whispers softly echo. It's the place where a part of you will forever be a part of me.

that the person i missed didn't exist anymore. people change. the things we

some of the most beautiful words in the entire world have already been used
thousands of times but that doesn't make them any less beautiful. so too with people.
i don't think people love me. they love versions of me i have spun for them, versions of me they have construed in their minds. the easy versions of me, the easy parts of me to love. who is going to love the girl that can't stop crying? the girl that hurts herself? the girl that is losing control? the girl that is so sad she can't get out of bed? the girl that keeps pushing everyone away? who is going to love the monster in me, who is going to love me now?
I love when I get complimented on things that aren’t my appearance Don’t get me wrong, I love to be called pretty/cute/beautiful ect, but I love when people compliment my laugh. Or the way I sound when I just wake up. The way my hair falls naturally. How I say a certain word. Just the way that I am. I love that.
“We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think. Think. Think. You can never trust the human mind anyway. It’s a death trap.”
Growing up with you will always be one of my favorite memories. You are without a doubt my first love and I will never forget the time spent with you. Though things and people change, memories remain and I will always hold ours close to me heart. We have our ups and downs, but all relationships do. But I know that we have is real. And I will always hold what we have on a platform because so far, you are all I know of love.
Try not to confuse "attachment" with "love". Attachment is about fear and dependency, and has more to with love of self than of another. Love without attachment is the purest of love because it isn't about what others can give you because you're empty. Its about what you can give others because you're already full.
They told me never fall in love, It never works out in your favor.
You way too young and right now that’s just human nature.
The reason it's so painful when someone disappears is you have to face the fact that the person you loved had probably left you a long time before he grabbed his coat and scrammed. The hard part is realizing that he was lying to you, in some way, before the moment of vanishing.
I think the hardest part of this whole situation is that neither of us knows what’s going on. Neither of us knows what the other is thinking. And we are both trying to make decisions on something we don’t really know.
My friend and I were just having a conversation about our ‘types’, and we couldn’t make up our minds between the “bad boy” and the “good man”.
And then I realized what our type is:

In this weird, twisted way, I know you miss me liking you. Not because I want to believe it's true, but because you'll never find a girl who will put up with you like I did. You will never find a girl that cared as much as I did, because no one will waste they're love on you, like I did.
 
 
You're going to come across people in your life who will say all the right words at all the right times. But in the end, it's always their actions you should judge them by. It's actions, not words, that matter.

I bet this time of night you’re still up. I bet you’re tired from a long, hard week. I bet you’re sitting in your chair by the window looking out at the And I bet sometimes you wonder about me and I just want to tell you it takes everything in me not to call. And I wish I could run to you and I hope you know that every time I don’t, I almost do.
Too many guys think I’m a concept, or I complete them, or I’m gonna make them alive. But I’m just a fucked-up girl who’s lookin’ for my own peace of mind, don’t assign me yours.
My point is, there are a lot of people in the world. No one ever sees everything the same way you do; it just doesn't happen. So when you find one person who gets a couple of things, especially if they're important ones, you might as well hold on to them. You know?
Don't be afraid of death, but be afraid of the unlived life. You don't have to live forever. You just have to live.
We're so inconsistent about what we let kill you. "Smoking? Must be eradicated. Marijuana? Zero tolerance." But there's lots of ways to kill yourself. You know what I think kills you? Stress, and being a workaholic, and never getting laid, and, uh, McDonalds, and staying mad at people, and lying for a living, and three-martini lunches, and the all-American breakfast, and whatever the fuck Elvis was doing. That's what kills you.
Beauty without intelligence is like a masterpiece painted on a napkin.
Thanks to those who didnt love me back, couldnt love me, and refused to love me. You taught me how to love myself.
 
You didn't love her. You just didn't want to be alone. Or maybe, maybe she was just good for your ego. Or, or maybe she made you feel better about your miserable life, but you didn't love her, because you don't destroy people you love.
Maybe a happy ending doesn't include a guy, maybe it's you, on your own, picking up the pieces and starting over, freeing yourself up for something better in the future. Maybe the happy ending it just moving on.
Just like you can see the smallest speck of dust in a ray of sunshine pouring from my window, I can still see who you used to be; you're not dead to me.
When you hate someone you used to love, and you think he's done something awful, he probably has. You're not going to love him again. He's not going to apologize, or come back to you. He probably doesn't even ever think about you at all, because he's too busy thinking about someone else.
Could it be that first love was the only true love? And that after those first fires had been doused or burned out, men and women chose whom they would love based on wordly needs, and then reenacted the rituals and feelings of that first pure experience?
It had been about a month since he had dumped her, and she'd moved through her weepy stage to just kind of sad all the time with occasional moments when I actually heard her laugh out loud, then stop, as if she'd forgotten she wasn't supposed to be happy.
He's lived long enough to know that everyone handled grief in different ways, and little by little, they all seemed to accept their new lives.
Men don't settle down because of the right woman. They settle down because they are finally ready for it. Whatever woman they're dating when they get ready is the one they settle down with, not necessarily the best one or the prettiest, just the one who happened to be on hand when the time got to be right. Unromantic, but still true.
Just when they'd grown so close, something in his past had caused him to push her away.
And this old highway seems to understand, leading me on to somewhere that no one knows my name. I got the window rolled down, I got the radio up, I'm doing all that I can to forget.
What happened to those girls? The ones that were supposed to grow old together, and marry those stupid boys they always loved? What happened to those girls that sat up all night prank calling boys that hurt them? What happened to the girls that pinky promised they'd be best friends forever?
You have to get hurt. That’s how you learn. The strongest people out there, the ones who laugh the hardest with a genuine smile, those are the people who have fought the toughest battles. Because they’ve decided that they’re not going to let anything hold them down, they’re showing the world who's the boss.
Instead of thinking about what you're missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.
you own everything that happened to you. if people wanted you to
write warmly about them, they should have behaved better.
you need to forgive that person today. just believe me.
forgive them even if they are not sorry.

the only thing I love more than Dean and Cas being sweet with each other is Dean and Cas being pissy with each other

be thankful for every heartbreak, for they were planned. they come into your life just to reveal another layer of yourself to you, and then leave. their purpose is to shake you up, tear apart your ego a little bit, show you your obstacles and addictions, break your heart open so new light can get in, make you so desperate and out of control that you have to transform your life, and you do.
it is essential that you remember your value when
everyone else around you has forgotten.

a girl doesn't need to tell you straight up how she feels, it is written all over her
eyes. if you can see how she feels without her telling you, then you definitely deserve her heart.
the reason people find it so hard to be happy is that they always see the past
better than it was, the present worse than it is, and the future less resolve than it will be.

people say Disney gave us unrealistic expectations about love. in some ways, that is true. but Disney also teaches us so many other things about love. Love is tiding each other through the bad times. Love is waiting. Love is sacrifice. Love is giving up fear and finding courage. Love is looking past the flaws. Love is telling the truth. Love is giving up your old ways of living. Love looks beyond class and status. Love is believing in each other's dreams. Love changes you for the better. Love is letting go.

sometimes in life there really are bonds formed that can never be broken. sometimes you really can find that one person who will stand by you no matter what. maybe you will find it in a spouse and celebrate it with your dream wedding. but there is also the chance that the one person you can count on for a lifetime, the one person who knows you sometimes better than you know yourself is the same person who has been standing beside you all along.

it is often said that no matter the truth, people will see what they want to see. some people might take a step back and find out they were looking at the same big picture all along. some people might see that their lies have almost caught up to them. some people may see what was there all along. and then there are those other people, the ones that run as far away as they can so they don't have to look at themselves.
yes, there are monsters, and it's okay to be afraid of them. but it's not okay to let them win. and it's not okay to be one.

“That’s what interests me about The Doctor because, actually, look at the blood on the man’s hands. 900 years, countless very selfish choices, and he’s literally blown planets up. His own race, you know, that’s all on his hands. Which is why I think he has to make silly jokes and wear a fez. Because if he didn’t, he’d hang himself.” -Matt Smith
i don't want you to save me. i want you to stand by my side as i save myself.
there are some people who meet that somebody that they can never stop loving, no matter how hard they try. i wouldn't expect you to understand that or even believe it, but trust me, there are some loves that don't go away. and maybe that makes them crazy, but we all should be lucky enough to end up with somebody who has a little of that insanity, someone who never lets go, someone who cherishes you forever.
sometimes in life you don't always feel like a winner, but that doesn't mean you
are not a winner, you want to be like yourself. i want my fans to know it's okay.

so this is when we finally learn the real meaning of change. you do the things you used to be against, you befriend the people you used to hate. you will learn what it is like to have your heart broken, to lose a friend that truly meant something to you. and to feel as if everything is really falling apart. maybe this is just what growing up is.

when you lose somebody, you think you have lost the whole world as well. but this is not the way things turn out in the end. eventually, you pick yourself up and look out the window and once you do, you see everything that was there before the world ended is out there, still. there are the same apple trees, and the same song birds. and over our heads, the same very sky that shines like heaven. so far above us, that we can never hope to reach such heights.
we just might work out fine because i love you enough to let you give the
pain that i want. and when you do, i just might fuck you enough to love you.

i won't fight to stay when all you want for me to do is leave. i am not going to miss you when you don't miss me. i am not going to care when you don't at all. i am just not going to try anymore. you have kept my hopes up for much too long . it is about time they come crashing back down to earth. it is time i start thinking about myself again and not you. it is time i be strong. it is time i let you go. it is about time i be happy. it is about time i leave you alone.

sometimes, we love people so much, that we have to be numb to it,
because if we actually felt how much we really love them, it would kill us.
you deserve to be with somebody who makes you happy. somebody
who doesn't complicate your life. somebody who won't hurt you.
peace - it does not mean to be in a place where there is no trouble, noise, or
hard work. it means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart.

Somewhere, someone knows the words to the song that you sing.
If you can’t solve it, it isn't a problem – it’s reality. And sometimes reality is the hardest thing to understand and the thing that takes the longest to realize. But once it hits you in the face, you’ll never forget it. It will always be there in your memories and sometimes that’s the best way to look at it.
I love. I have loved. I will love.
We lose people we love because they are meant to love someone else. We lose them because we are destined to find somebody else. It is a simple fact that is sometimes hard to accept because we are too stupid to let go.
If we weren't meant to give things another try, our paths and thoughts would not keep crossing and we would not keep tripping over our feelings for each other.
My problem is with anybody who just vanishes and then just waltzes back in and expects to be instantly forgiven.
You win or you lose, either way the sun comes up in the morning.
Letting go isn't about giving up, it's about accepting there are things that just can't be.
By some mischief of fate, we might only fall in love once. You know, that one great love old folks refer to. Many lovers may get into our lives, but there is only one person with that one smile, one kiss, one hug and one moment, that our hearts will never replace. That person, usually but sadly, is the one that got away. That’s why, after all the chips are down, we know, just know, that we’ll never fall in love that way again.
 
If you love someone let them go, and if they come back to you kick their ass back out, because if they loved you they would never have left you in the first place.
Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.
One day, I'll find someone who's going nowhere and we'll go there together.
in order to move on, you must understand why you left
what you did and why you no longer need to feel it.

I really cant picture anyone at all having a crush on me.
I can't picture anyone daydreaming about me.
I can't picture someone thinking about me when they're
laying in bed before they fall asleep.
I can't picture anyone telling their friends about me.
I can't picture anyone getting butterflies because I
hugged them, or even just because I made eye contact
with them. I can't picture someone smiling because
my name lit up their phone. I just can't.
there are three kinds of heartbreak:
the first is when someone is reckless with your heart and it breaks and it shatters in ways you never thought it could. the second is when you break someone's heart because you will never know pain like the type that has you look into their eyes but they look away. and the third is the worst kind of heartbreak is the kind that comes along when you have to watch the person you love be happy with someone else.
be proud of who you are, not ashamed of how someone else sees you.
people who are not depressed see the world the way they want to see it.
people who are depressed see the world the way it actually is.
never let anyone diminish you. never diminish yourself.
listen, you are going to fall in love so many times before you find the one you will be with forever.
so, think of it this way. you are just one broken heart closer to happily ever after.

i have always avoided fights. i make jokes instead. i tell people what they want to hear in order to avoid a confrontation. i pretend to want things i don't want, and i pretend not to want things i do want. no one gets hurt. except me. the lines are so crossed and blurred at this point that i don't know what i want. i just know i want it to be easy.
“I know I’ve told this story before, but my abusive ex refused to let me take birth control. I was on the pill until he found them in my purse.
I went to the Student Health Center—they were completely unhelpful, choosing to lecture me about the importance of safe sex (recommending condoms) instead of actually listening to my problem.
Then I went to Planned Parenthood. The Nurse Practitioner took one look at my fading bruises and stopped the exam. She called in the doctor. The doctor came in and simply asked me: “Are you ready to leave him?” When I denied that I was being abused, she didn’t argue with me. She just asked me what I needed. I said I need a birth control method that my boyfriend couldn’t detect. She recommended a few options and we decided on Depo.
When I told her that my boyfriend read my emails and listened to my phone messages and was known to follow me, she suggested to do the Depo injections at off hours when the clinic was normally closed. She made a note in my chart and instructed the front desk never to leave messages for me—instead, she programmed her personal cell phone number into my phone under the name “Nora”. She told me she would call me to schedule my appointments; she wouldn’t leave a message, but I should call her back when I was able to.
And that was it. No judgment. No lecture. She walked me to the door and told me to call her day or night if I needed anything. That she lived 5 blocks from campus and would come get me. That I wasn’t alone. That she just wanted me to be safe.
I never called her to come to my rescue. But I have no doubt that she would have come if I had called. She kept me on Depo for a year, giving me those monthly injections in secret, helping me prevent a desperately unwanted pregnancy.
I cannot thank Planned Parenthood enough for the work they do.”

please know there are much better things in life than being lonely or liked, or better, or mean, or self conscious. We are all full of shit. Go love someone just because, i know your heart may be badly bruised, or even the victim of numerous knifings but it will always heal, even if you don't want it to it keeps going. There are the most fantastic, beautiful things and people out there, i promise. it is up to you to find them.
whether it was three years ago, today, or still to come. whether it was just a moment or a whole day. everyone has a time in their life when they wish everything would just stop. the world would stop turning and people would just stop changing, because to them at that time - everything was perfect.
sometimes talking is the best way to solve a problem, even if it means shoving away some of your pride because if you didn't talk about your feelings you could lose someone really important in your life over something as simple as a word.
 
 
 
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have their way out of the depths. these persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. beautiful people do not just happen.

I get way too attached. Letting go is really hard for me.
Especially if you were the source of my happiness for so long.
It may take me awhile to find something to replace that.
It's going to take some time to get you out of my head.
I'm going to want to text you, call you, even see you.
It may seem easy to move on from something you know is
over, but its not for me. When i'm with someone, I invest
everything I have in them. And when they're gone, I feel
like I'm left with nothing. That either makes me a really
hard lover or just a fool.

You can leave me.

I miss you. Not in some cheesy, lets hold hands and
be together forever way. I just miss you. Plain and simple.
I miss your presence in my life. I miss you always
being there for me. I miss my best friend.
Its crazy, because I don't know even know
when you became so important to me.
It's like watching a snowstorm.
You see the flakes falling, but you don't realize
how they're adding up. Then suddenly, your
whole lawn is covered. All these little things
have added up and you're my snowstorm, baby.
I want this. I want all of it. I want the pointless
bickering, the long walks, the late night phone
calls, the good morning texts. I want cute pictures
with you, to hold your hand, to make food for you,
to call you baby. The joking, the wrestling, the fights,
the long how I feel text messages after we make up.
I want to be one of those inseparable best friend
couples that people are like, "your still together?"
thats what I want. With you.
I think everyone at some point, goes through that one moment where they think "my God, I can't do this". But you know what? You can. No matter how close you are to the edge, no matter how badly you feel like giving up, or think it's best to do so rather than have to put up with the pain - don't. Don't lose hope that things will get better. Don't give up, because there is someone out there who will make you smile in a way no one else ever could. Keep that glimmer of hope alive in your heart, because someone is out there searching for your smile. So wipe your tears and keep your head held high.

That One Star is Not Me
Laying down in the grass looking
At the sky I see a bright
Little star just stareing at at me
I try to look away from
This little star but I just can't
That One Star is Not Me
I just don't see why I am
Still in this world if noone
Really cares about me
Everybody looks at the stars
For answers and they get
Their questions answered
They all become stars
Just not me

Why is it when I ask
The stars for an answer
To my questions I
Get nothing
I know why because
I am not a star like
Everyone else

Difficult times have helped me to understand better than before, how infinitely rich and beautiful life is in every way, and that so many things that one goes worrying about are of no importance whatsoever.
One day, I'll find someone who's going nowhere and we'll go there together.
dreams are real. when you have a dream - fight for it. don't let anything stand in your way, because that dream is so much bigger than anything else in this cold world. don't give in to people who don't want good things for you. don't let them stop you. fight for your dream, protect it, defend it, and i promise everything will turn out alright.
one day you are going to wake up and notice that you should have tried. i was worth the fight.
he was her best friend. the one who made her laugh, when she didn't feel like smiling. the one who made her feel so secure, when she was scared, and the one, who she fell completely in love with.
  
drugs can possess you, but so can your mind. learn how to use it, how to direct it. don't give your mind to a demon.
i don't need you to love me. but you have to open up your heart to somebody. you have got to let someone discover how staggering you are, just don't be alone. that i can't live with.
 
you kept me around while you were looking for. you knew it the whole time. and the truth is, i don't' feel anger anymore. what i feel is sorrow. because you are never going to be happy. you are always going to want more.
 
i have spent hours contemplating the words to say to you, but no combination of twenty six different letters could ever accurately capture even a silver of what this feeling is.
 
just say what you mean and mean what you say. don't expect someone to read your mind, and don't play games with heads or hearts. don't tell half truths and expect truth when the full truth comes out. half truths are no better than lies. don't be cold to someone you care about, indifference hurts more than angry words.
who knows what could have happened if we had found each other in different circumstances. i might have loved you if it was a perfect world, but i can't love you in this one.

“We wake up in the morning face-to-face. Well, I wake up. You’re asleep. Your eyes are closed. For a minute I just look at you. I start at your hairline. Your sleep-rumpled mane. My gaze sweeps down to your forehead, your temples, your ears. Your adorable ears. I reach one hand up and delicately run one finger over your ear.
I look down to your nose. Your cute little nose. The curve above your lip, down to your top lip. The soft parting of them where your breath comes out. Your lower lip. Your chin. Your jawline. I love all of it. I want to soak all of you up with my eyes. I want to remember everything. I want to take a picture with my mind.
Just let me have this. Let me have you.
Outside, the sounds of the city streets echo. I can hear cars, the murmurs of people talking, our neighbors turning on their shower. I can hear the world beginning to turn. It’s early. The sun is soft yellow and filtered by gray. I can hear a light breeze, a distant alarm clock, a ruffle as you shift your legs in your sleep — closer to mine, wrapping our ankles together.
I look at your neck, your shoulders, your arms. I take you in. I take a deep breath and I smell you. You always tell me you smell like nothing in particular, but you’re wrong. You smell like you. You smell like you in the morning — warm and cozy and like love….”

i was anchored to something once, but i never wanted to be anchored to someone.. maybe that makes me driftwood, but maybe it makes me my own person.
 
I spy with my little eye a deep emotional issue that will probably develop into a drinking problem in my near future
i just feel like my whole has been nothing but wrong turns, taking me places i don't want to go. i am hoping that one day a wrong turn will take me to some place that i never knew i wanted to go to.
i remember when you leaned in quick to kiss me, and i swear that not a single force on earth could stop the trembling of my hand.
open your mouth only if what you are going to say is more beautiful than silence.
sometimes i wish i could just keep you forever because i could quite possible be in love with you and i can see myself falling in love with you.
there will come a time, you will see, with no more tears. love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
“I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.”
— Mary Shelley, Frankenstein
your only going to be as good as the people you surround
yourself with so be brave enough to let go
of those who keep weighing you down
 
I do not spew profanities. I enunciate them clearly, like a fucking lady.
Sometimes it's easier for me to pretend rather
than face my feelings. Sometimes it's easier to
try to make it alone rather than risk getting
hurt again. Sometimes it's easier to be numb
towards certain people so I don't let them get
too close. Sometimes I'm scared, but when I
act numb towards you; it doesn't mean I don't
care, it means I care too much.
 
It's still there, you know?
I can be totally happy and still have that
part of my mind wondering how much
better it would be if you were here.
I don't think that's ever really going to change.
This is me, and I’m interested in you enough
to show you my flaws with the hope that you
may embrace me for all that I am but,
more importantly, all that I am not.
It hurts to love someone when we can’t tell them what we really feel because sometimes we get hurt without them knowing. We get jealous even if we have no right to feel that way. We want their time even if we are not in the position to demand for it. Although our hearts are breaking in silence, we still continue to love them because somehow in this hurtful love there is still hope of having simple moments with them even if it means being just a friend.
 
Sometimes we're too into the moment to look
at the big picture. We fail to see things in
perspective because we're too absorbed in
what's taking place at that very instance.
The thing is we should face reality.
Find ourselves from being lost in the moment
and think about everything the way that it is.
Because sometimes being realistic can save
us from pain and disappointment.
 
Let's pretend we're not needy. Let's pretend
our hearts still beat. Let's pretend we fall in love
tonight, clumsy enough to fall for anything.
Because lately, you make me weaker in
the knees; and race through my veins, baby,
every time you're close to me. Take me away
to places I haven't seen; they say you've got
a hold on me, and I won't disagree
i'm not like everybody else. i don't do what i'm
told. i'm great at arguing, but i hate doing it. i
laugh more than i breathe, but only a stupid
things. i don't get good grades & i hate getting
in trouble, but it happens everyday. i'll tell you
straight out if i don't like you. i've a big mouth,
but i've got a good heart to match it and i can
love you with all that i've got.
I know you're not supposed to regret
stuff, because at one point in your life,
you really wanted it. But at this point
in my life, i regret even knowing him.
because it only brought me heartbreak

One day you'll love me as I loved you ;
one day you'll think of me as I thought of you ;
one day you'll cry for me as I cried for you ;
one day you'll want me but I won't want you.
I'm not broken, only slightly damaged.
Self inflicted of course. I'd never give you
that victory. I'm bitter, I'm hurt, and
I'm ready to move on from this.
This process is slow and agonizing, but so is life.
I know you don't mean to be, mean to me,
Cause when you want to you can make me
feel like we belong.
Lately you make me feel all I am is a
back up plan. I say im done and then you
smile at me and I forget everything I said
2012 is almost over and I feel all I’ve done all year is become obsessed with new things and read homoerotic fanfiction
 
Stop running after them. Just stop it. Sit down, read a book, watch the tv, go to sleep. If it's really meant to be, they'll turn around and be like "Wait. She's not chasing after my ass anymore" and then he'll stand up, put down that book and run like the wind to get you back.
I really enjoy spending time with you, even if we’re just going to be sitting around and talking about nothing. There are a million things I love about you, like your nose or the way you smile, the way you look me in the eye, too. And I just get the greatest feeling when I make you laugh. I feel as if my company makes you happy, and that’s what I wish for you. For you to be happy. And when I see you laugh at my clumsy ways, it just makes me want to spend the rest of my life with you so I can see a smile on your face.
You may feel alone when you're falling asleep
& every time tears roll down your cheeks.
But I know your heart belongs to someone
you've yet to meet. Someday you will be loved.
I would like to believe the best of me is something
I have yet to see, because working at dead end jobs
and skipping class and spending hours on my ass
just doesn't sound like any fun to me.
You want the truth? Well, here it is. Eventually, you forget it all. First you forget everything you learned – the dates of wars and the Pythagorean Theorem. You especially forget everything you didn't really learn, but just memorized the night before. You forget the names of all but one or two of your favorite teachers, and eventually you forget those, too. You forget your junior year class schedule and where you used to sit and your best friend's home phone number and the lyrics to that song you must have played a million times. And eventually, but slowly, you forget your humiliations. Even the ones that seemed indelible just fade away. You forget who was cool and who was not, who was pretty, smart, athletic, and not. Who went to a good college. Who threw the best parties. Who had the most friends. You forget all of them. Even the ones you said you loved. And the ones you actually did. They're the last to go. And then once you've forgotten enough, you love someone else.
There's no doubt in my mind that I am in love
with you. everything about you makes me smile.
When you hold my hand, I never want to let go.
When you're sad, I would do anything in my
power to make it better. You mean so much to me
that it hurts. I would give anything to be with
you every second of every day.
  
I've learned a lot these past few years, through my fake smiles & unseen tears that friends sometimes are not forever & true love does not always last. The good memories stay with you, but the good moments go by fast. But someone will always be there, someone that honestly does care.
And no relationship is perfect, ever.
There are some ways you have to bend, to compromise,
to give something in order to gain something greater.
But the love we have for each other is bigger
than those small differences. And that's the key.
It's like a big pie chart, and the love in a relationship
has to be the biggest piece. Love can make up for a lot.
 
i want to be the kind of girl who leaves an
everlasting impression. I don't want to be
the type that you'll forget in a week. I want
to be hard to forget. I want to have the kind
of impact on someone where they know
they'll never find anyone else who could
ever take my place
As hard as it was to move on, I think I'm finally okay with
how we are, and at some point, we both wish we didn't
ignore each other like that. I'll be forgiving you, just like you
were forgiving me. People make mistakes, second chances
are okay. It's like a weight has just been lifted. I can finally
breathe and not worry about what he will say or when he
would've finally stopped ignoring me, because now I no longer
care. He doesn't concern me. I just wonder if he'll come back
to me, wishing he would've never screwed things up. I just
hope our friendship can have another chance, but if this is the
way it was meant to be, then I'm honestly okay
How do you know he loves you? It's the way he looks
at you, even if you aren't the 'prettiest' girl in the room.
The way he holds you just because. The way he knows
that something is wrong, and yet you don't have to say
a single word. It's the way he looks in your eyes, like
you're his whole world. That very same way you
look at him. It's those moments that pass,
reminding you, he loves you.

“When I was younger, I looked like a girl, and I was making out with my girlfriend, later my wife, in a Station Wagon. And, uh, some drunk hicks - where were we? We were in West Virginia, and these guys were like, really, like down-home country boys, and started bangin’ on the glass goin’, “Look! There’s two lesbos makin’ out!”

Just because someone does a horrible thing,
doesn't mean they're a horrible person.
 
Everyone says that love hurts, but that's not true.
Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts.
Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love.
But in reality, love is the only thing in this world that
covers up all the pain and makes someone feel wonderful again.
A hug can turn your day around.
It's like an emotional heimlich.
Someone puts their arms around you,
And they give you a slight squeeze.
And all of your fear and anxiety comes
Shooting out of your mouth.
And you can finally breathe again
it's beautiful when you find someone that is in love with your mind. someone that wants to undress you conscience and make love to your thoughts. someone that wants to watch you slowly take down all the walls you have built around your mind and let them inside.
  
  
  
i won't ever understand why those with the biggest
hearts always end up getting treated the worst.
well let me tell you a little about me i am scared of everything. i am scared of what i saw. i am scared of what i did, of who i am, and most of all i am scared of walking of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way i feel when i am with you.
i can believe that maybe now we aren't meant to be and a little later on we will be, only because it is impossible for me to believe that i could have these kinds of feelings after so long for someone that wasn't supposed to be in my life forever.
my mom: what are you gonna bring to christmas dinner
me: my negative attitude and sparkling personality
love doesn't mean holding onto feelings and being devoted to someone you can't have. it is wanting what is best for the other person, even if that means you don't get what you want. that is not say that the pain shouldn't exist or that it will fade just like that, but true love desires the happiness of the one you love.
i don't care if you are going to tell everyone about what i have done to you.
but please, just don't forget to tell them what you did to me.
love doesn't demand to be loved back, but it
doesn't mean it exists to be taken for granted.
you gave up on me so easily, and it hurts to realize how replaceable i was. but the thing is: i never gave up on you, remember that, i was there the whole time waiting for you, but now it's too late for you to come around, sorry.
there were things i wanted to tell him. but i knew they would hurt him,
so i buried them, and let them hurt me.
there are some people who meet that somebody that they can never stop loving, no matter how hard they try. i wouldn't expect you to understand that, or even believe it, but trust me, there are some loves that don't go away. and maybe that makes them crazy, but we should all be lucky enough to end up with somebody who has a little of that insanity, someone who never lets go. someone who cherishes you forever.
OMG IMAGINE BEING SOMEONE’S FAVOURITE BLOG

how did one glance shatter the world i used to live in and recreate this one?
+ Tyler Knott Gregson
no one deserves to be treated that way. so even if you love with your entire heart, every fiber of your being, with so much passion that it hurts to think about, you need to forget what you want and remember what you deserve.
any guy who thinks he is playing a real woman is actually playing himself.
a real woman is a great gain. so that is his loss.
i didn't lose you, i had to let you go. i didn't get over you, i had to move on. i have realized that when you truly love someone, you never lose them or get over them, but that they will always mean something to you.
love is like standing on wet cement --
the longer you stay ;; the harder it is to
leave && you can never let go with out
leaving your foot prints behind
If he's the one you love
and the one who makes you happy,
no matter how long you've liked him
and no matter what other people say,
you should keep trying and waiting
because one day it may just be worth it.
I sort of wish someone were lying here beside me.
To just watch the way I hold my pen and the way
I form my “l’s”and to watch the way I closed my
eyelids at the end of each sentence. Maybe I’d kiss
them and maybe we’d go outside in the cold and just
look out into the night together or maybe we’d drink
hot chocolate and whisper our secrets or maybe we’d
just lay down on my bed side by side, hand in hand.
I love what you are, and what you do and how you try.
I've seen your kindness and your strength that carries
you through. I've seen the best of you. I've seen the
worst of you. And I understand with perfect clarity
exactly what you are. And I love you.
and when she's gone, remember, you once loved her.
you once needed her. you once cared about her more
than anything in the world. you can't deny she was ever
there, you can't deny what you had. you can't deny that
it ended over absolutely nothing, you can't deny that
regardless, you still think about it. no other girl could
ever love you the way she does. you'll realize what
you've done. you'll come back, and she'll be gone.
There's no shame in being afraid. Hell, we're all afraid. What you gotta do is figure out what you're afraid of, because when you put a face on it you can beat it. Better yet, you can use it. Looking back on what I said all those years ago, all the hopes and dreams I had, I've come to the conclusion that if having things turn out the way you wanted them to is a measure of a successful life, then some would say I'm a failure.
There comes a point where you just love someone. Not because they’re good, or bad, or anything really. You just love them. It doesn’t mean you’ll be together forever. It doesn’t mean you won’t hurt each other. It just means you love them. Sometimes in spite of who they are, and sometimes because of who they are. And you know that they love you, sometimes because of who you are, and sometimes in spite of it.

“You mean when Jared, his buddy Jordan and I were jumped by seven or eight guys? There had been this fight at a bar and these guys got kicked out. They were pretty tanked. This one girl sees me walking by and says, “That’s the guy,” meaning she knew me from the show, but they thought I was some guy she had been fighting with. They started swinging at me and it was an all-out brawl.
We got away and put two of them in the hospital. I got away first, then I turn around and see three or four guys teaming up on Jared. I was like, “Oh, man!” I run back in and I’m fly-kicking at some kid, hit another guy, grabbed Jared’s shirt — of course, I ripped his favorite shirt — and I’m yelling “C’mon, let’s get out of here!” We were pretty tight after that.”

it's funny how when you finally get over someone, you start seeing them in
a whole new perspective. it's like you are finally looking at them through
the eyes of your best friend, and you realize, he is nothing special.

cried the most tears, and the kindest hearts have felt the most pain.

if you are getting pushed away, don't hold on tighter. letting go when
you are getting pushed away is the only way he will feel what it is like
without you, even though it is the hardest thing to do, do it for him.
you don't even realize how much someone means to you until you
are with someone else and you realize that it is not what you want
and all you do want is the one you don't have anymore.
love is a behavior, not a feeling. it is the way somebody treats you,
everyday, all day. not just when their life going well.
can you imagine meeting someone who figures out why you are so guarded? can you imagine finding someone who stays? no matter what you put them through they always remain on the front porch waiting for you. The light never goes out. your outline always remains in the bed sheets they never fill your draw in their wardrobe. They become a part of you and you become a part of them. So much so that if they were to ever go missing it would feel like you went missing too.
I'm scared to get close to people. It seems that every time I get close to someone they always have to go away.. maybe its to teach me how life goes on and how I shouldn't depend on people, or maybe I just trust the wrong people.
You've changed so much. I guess that's what happens. I wish you knew how much you've changed me. I wonder if I've changed you; If you're life is different because of me. Because mine's different. My God, you taught me so much, and now we don't even talk to each other. I guess that's what happens.
Girl, don't you ever give up. I know your heart may be breaking, and I know you might feel like you can't go on without him. Trust me, I know how it all feels. But do you think his heart is breaking over you? Do you think he's wasting his days away, laying in bed thinking of the good ol' times? No. He's going to move on with his life. And guess what? You are too. You are going to super glue your heart right back together, and go on with life. With or without him. And someday, there will be a new guy. Maybe this guy will be the one, or maybe he will just be a temporary guy. But either way, you will move on. To much better things. But for now, you need to get up and forget about the guy who forgot about you.

Sometimes you just have to erase the messages,
delete the numbers and move on. You don't have
to forget who that person was to you;
only accept they aren't that person anymore.
Sometimes I wonder if maybe we'll ever be together, and then I realize that we'll never really be over, in a way it hasn't changed, but in some ways, it has, it's not that we aren't meant for each other, I think it's just maybe we aren't ready for forever.
Nothing has turned out as we expected.
It never does. Life's under no obligation
to give us what we expect. We take
what we can get and are thankful
it's no worse than it is.

If someone wants to be a part of your life,
they’ll make an effort to be in it. Don’t bother
reserving a space in your heart for someone
who doesn’t make an effort to stay.
Be grateful that you don't have everything you want,
that means that you have the opportunity
to be happier tomorrow than you are today.

what I wanted to be when I grew up.
I told her “happy”.
She told me I didn’t understand the assignment...
I told her she didn’t understand life.

and we didn't look away. for a moment, we were

There's so many different ways to be connected to people. There are the people you feel this unspoken connection to, even though there's not even a word for it. There's the people you've known forever, who know you in this way that other people can't, because they've seen you change, and they've let you change.
Theres a dream that I've been chasing
Want so badly for it to be reality
And when you hold my hand
Then I understand that it's mean to be
Know for sure that I'll never let you go

remember that my heart is in your hands..
its nothing i understand, but when i'm in your
arms, you have complete control over me.
i jus want you, that is all. all your flaws, mistakes, smiles,
giggles, jokes, sarcasm, everything. i just want you.
if you loved him, truly loved him, then you don't just get over him.
if you do, it wasn't even close to love. i think sometimes we just need
to tell ourselves we are over him, because we are just not ready to
realize, that a part of him is going to stay in you forever.
that has always seemed so ridiculous to me, that people want to
be around someone because they are pretty. it is like picking your

of my head. i hope you two are happy and i hope she breaks your heart.
so here is the deal. with me, it is all or nothing. i love completely or i don't love
at all. so you have to make a choice. do you want all of me, or none? i know it
seems extreme but here is the thing. you are the one thing in my life that i am sure
about. for me, there is no choice cause i have already decided. are you here or are you gone?

If you’re feeling frightened about what comes next, don’t be. Embrace the uncertainty. Allow it to lead you places. Be brave as it challenges you to exercise both your heart and your mind as you create your own path towards happiness. Don’t waste time with regret. Spin wildly into your next action. Enjoy the present, each moment, as it comes; because you’ll never get another one quite like it. And if you should ever look up and find yourself lost, simply take a breath and start over. Retrace your steps and go back to the purest place in your heart… where your hope lives. You’ll find your way again.
When do we stop needing our parents? When do they become equals just enduring life with all its flaws right along with us? When do we step out of the child role and into the role of their friend, or peer, or enemy. Maybe never for some of us. Some of us just stay wrapped up in the cocoon of childhood and never truly let go. But i think for most of us its when we realize that whether they were good parents while we were growing up, whether they were right or wrong, condescending or gentle, whether they loved us enough or not, they are just humans. Because anyone can have children, it doesn't take anything special but a good pair of ovaries and some sperm. Parents are simply humans trying to navigate through this bleak and selfish world. All the while trying to lighten, or in some cases worsen, the pain of it all. I think eventually we realize we're all in this shit til we die, and there is nothing more parents can do.
Sometimes we need to stop analyzing the past, stop planning the future, stop trying to figure out precisely how we feel, stop deciding with our mind what we want our heart to feel, and sometimes we just have to go with "whatever happens, happens"
Don't dwell on the past. Your history can't be erased, but your future has yet to be written. Make the most of what's going to happen instead of worrying about what you can't change. Don't waste your time being sad, because you're wasting away moments in which you could be happy. It's taken me awhile, but i'm learning that letting go of the past is a good thing. It doesn't mean forgetting, it just means moving on. And you can't enjoy the present when you're stuck in the past. Don't cry for what might have been, don't live in the past. It was supposed to be forever? Well forever doesn't always lasts. Lift your head and dry your tears, forget about yesterday. We had the time of our life, but we must move on. Let it fade away.
I love that moment. When you're on a long car ride, or listening to music, or reading. And you completely zone out. You forget your troubles, and everyone around you. You're focused on that one thing, and that one thing only. You're content, and everything seems peaceful.

It is easy to forget how perfectly
life works out. When you are down,
you believe that things never work
in your favor. But if you look back,
you see that, in many cases, things
happened exactly the way they needed to.
Never think you are nothing, never cry at night for thinking your not pretty enough, nor tell yourself your not good enough. And somebody else probably thinks the world of you. You may not know who they are, but they do exist. So don't ever think that way about yourself.
I may be a little lonely. I may text you a lot or want to talk to you as much as possible. But at least I'm putting myself out there, and one day I will find love. I will find someone that makes me happy for all the right reasons. Just you wait and see.
“That is part of the beauty of all literature. You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you’re not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong.”

I decided, very early on, just to accept life unconditionally; I never expected it to do anything special for me, yet I seemed to accomplish far more than I had ever hoped. Most of the time it just happened to me without my ever seeking it.
And I can’t promise you fucking fairy tale shit and I can’t tell you that I’m not capable of doing some really shitty things, because I am. But, I’ll never be someone you can’t trust. That promise, I can make.

i can't explain how painful it is to wait for something that never comes. never.
lately i have been thinking about exactly what went wrong. i realized i compromised, i sacrificed far too much for far too long. never gain, not in this life, will i be taken twice. never again, not on your life, will i made that same mistake. i can't make it twice.
i am here not because i am supposed to be here, or because i am trapped here,

It’s waking up in the middle of the night for no reason,shifting under the blankets & feeling the heat of the person next to you.You turn around & see them in their most peaceful, innocent, &vulnerable state. They breathe as though the weight of the world lies onanyone's shoulder but their own. You smile & kiss their face gently beforeturning back around & somehow, an involuntary grin forms on your face. Justbefore you drift off to sleep, you feel an arm wrap around your waist & youknow.
And sometimes we joke, and sometimes we're serious.Sometimes we're just random talking and sometimes we don't talk at all. But notsometimes, but all of the times I feel comfortable with you, and I trust youwith every word I say. You're more than a friend.
I've been replaced, lied to, cheated on, forgotten, andtreated like I'm worthless. I'm used to it.
Call me crazy, but I still believe very much inuntainted, unchanging, everlasting love. Despite the heartbreak and thedisappointment that follows each mismatch, I've never failed to pick myselfright back up to dive into yet another dream. It's just I've seen rainbowswithout the rain. I've felt the ground shake as I've prayed. I've witnessedlight shine from darkness, so I've concluded that true love must be out there,waiting for us.
 
My feelings just changed. I had been waiting for you torealize you couldn't go another day without me. I had played out every excuseyou could of had for putting all that time between us. Missing you had becomesecond nature to me. And somewhere in the last year, when I never got thatphone call, and you never showed up at my window, and we never ran into eachother, I just stopped feeling like I needed you so much.
boys; they are so stupid. just when everything isperfect,they turn around and do something so idiotic, so horrible and theycrush your entire world. the guy you thought was the only one that was worthsomething, that was not like the others, well, you drop your guard and you seehim standing there, with a grin on his face, a sign around his neck saying,"i'm just like the others. you just didn't see it until it was toolate."

I want the heart racing, palm sweaty, "what's gonnahappen next" moments. I want the hugs that you never want to let go of& the stolen kisses that are always the sweetest. But most importantly, Ijust want to know someone considers me theirs.
I've finally found someone who believes
I'm perfect just the way I am, even though
I have many flaws. I've finally found someone
who is willing to take it slow, just for me.
I've finally found someone who will wipe my
tears away, and will listen to my hurt. I've found
someone who is caring, thoughtful, and absolutely
loving. Someone who sees something in me,
even after he's seen me at my worst.
Have you ever had someone who just made you
feel like you were on painkillers? Just calm, happy,
stress free? A subtle kind of fireworks in the brain
and body, the perfect afternoon nap? To be still,
to have no desire for anything. It's so nice,
it's so unfamiliar.
Just because things aren't necessarily
going right at the moment, that just
means that your learning more about
yourself and it will make you a better
person in the long run. That I can promise you.
 
What’s worse than wanting something you can't have? It’s not knowing what you want. Wishing on all the stars in the sky for the answers to your questions, for something to believe in, someone to hold. Having absolutely no control over yourself, being caught up in a place you wish you were miles away from. Being stuck somewhere between the past and the future, nowhere near where you should be, which is the present. Stuck in yesterdays and tomorrows, so far from home, far from everything you know and love. The uncertainty could just tear you to bits.
Life is too short to wake up in the morning with regrets. So love the people who treat you right, forget about the ones who don't and believe that everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it. If it changes your life, let it. Nobody said that it'd be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.
In your entire life, you can probably count your true friends on one hand. Maybe even on one finger. Those are the friends you need to cherish, and I wouldn't trade one of them for a hundred of the other kind. I'd rather be completely alone than with a bunch of people who aren't real. People who are just passing time.
If you think about it, rock bottom is sometimes the best start.
When you're down, there's nowhere to go but up.
when you’re broken in a million little pieces
and you’re trying but you cant hold on anymore
every tear falls down for a reason
don’t you stop believing in yourself
when you’re broken
You absolutely destroyed me. Did you know that? But you know what, I just want to say thank you. I don't regret meeting you, but I don't wish you could magically come back into my life either. I believe that God gives us someone like this for a reason. Someone who will hurt you a million times, someone who will leave you, and not look back. This person will make you a better person in the end. You will come out stronger than ever before and you will be happier without him than you were with him.

In life, people tend to wait for good things to come to them. And by waiting, they miss out. Usually what you wish for doesn't fall in your lap - it falls somewhere nearby, and you have to recognize it, stand up, and put the time and work it takes to get it. This isn't because the universe is cruel. It's because the universe is smart. It has its own cat-string theory and knows we don't appreciate things that fall right into our laps.
Things happen, you know? Things happen, and you can't do anything to make them un-happen. You don't get do-overs, you can't roll back the clock, and the only thing you can change, and the only thing it does any good to worry about, is how you let them affect you.
He had proven to me, without a doubt, that he didn't need me, and if it was the last thing I ever did, I was going to prove to him, without a doubt, that I didn't need him either.

Things just don't work out. That's the simplest explanation for life. You can dwell on why something that didn't or shouldn't have happened, but it did. So just move on. You can sit there crying over some boy who did you wrong, or you can go out and live life to it's fullest. Everyone needs reasons why things are the way that they are, but over thinking over powers your brain. It gets you hanging onto the past when what you really need to be doing is moving forward and focusing on greater things. When things don't work out, find something that will.
You'll never cross the ocean unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore.
 
There are two ways to look at life. You can complain that the roses have thorns, or you can be happy that the thorns have roses.
Just because today is a terrible day, doesn't mean that tomorrow might not be the best day of your entire life. You just gotta wake up and get there.
Pete Wentz
 
And after awhile, you learn that you don't need anyone else in order to survive. No one else is ever going to always be there, no matter what they say or what they promise you. You just gotta suck it up, accept it, and keep moving on.
There is no person in the world who is made to handle every punch that's thrown at them. We aren't made that way. In fact, we're made to get mad, upset, sad, be hurt, stumble and fall. We aren't suppose to be able to handle everything. But that's what makes us stronger in the end, by learning from the things that hurt us the most.
One day, it all catches up with you. Every ended relationship, every tear shed, every broken heart. You pick up the pieces, you brush them off and you put them back together, only each time you need a little more glue. Then just like that,glue's not enough anymore. The cracks, the holes, the shattered dreams? They're a part of you. Try as you might, you can't fix what's been broken, and you can't mend what's been torn.
i used to care about what people thought about me, then i learned i
definitely can't please everyone, some people will like you and some people
will hate you, but i really don't care either way. I am not losing sleep over it.

you don't let people in, it's hard for you and once you do you don't want
to let them go and when they fuck up you are like why did you do that to me?
i gave up my feelings. i did everything for you, and you screwed me over.
 
you are going to come across people in your life who will say all the right

should judge them by. it's actions, not words, that matter.

i believe that we are who we choose to be. nobody is going to come and save you.
you have got to save yourself. nobody is going to give you anything. you have got
to go out and fight for it. nobody knows what you want except you, and nobody
will be as sorry as you if you don't get it. so don't give up on your dreams.
 
when something's working, you don't go and fuck it up by throwing labels or doing
stupid things like throwing a ring on your finger because society or friends said so.
 
you’re allowed to contradict yourself
you’re allowed to seek attention or approval
you’re allowed to complain about something that’s bothering you
you’re allowed to express negative opinions
you’re allowed to be an ass sometimes
you’re allowed to talk about yourself
you’re allowed to fuck up
 
i have already look beyond it. i take you for who you are and the
person you are, and the heart that you have and i don't let
anybody interfere with that. i think truth in time tells all.
 
at least once every single day i wonder if it is passion and passion alone
that keeps my lungs filling, my heart beating, my eyes watering, and
my feet dragging themselves from the sheets every single morning.

don't leave something good to find something better. once
you realize you had the best, the best found better.
 
i hate the feeling when you really don't have any emotion. you feel
so empty. you are not happy, you are not sad. you are nothing. when
your mind is spinning, but you can't feel anything.
i feel like i am trying so hard to be friends with someone who
just doesn't have any interest in being my friend.
+ Lauren Conrad
relationships end because once the person has you,
they stop doing all the thing it took to get you.
 
That's what life is about. Those moments when you feel entirely carefree, like nothing can touch you. It's those moments that make the hard parts so worth it. It's moments like that that make this heartache bearable. I know it'll pass - my moments will come.
^And then I cry forever because he's not talking about these zombies running around town, he's talking about himself because Dean genuinely believes that if he had stayed dead everything would have been better. He believes that the world would have been better off without him.
You know that feeling where everything feels right? Where you don't have to worry about tomorrow or yesterday, where you feel safe and know you're doing the best you can? There's a word for that, it's called love.
It means you have a choice. You have a choice to make. And I don't want to rush you into making the decision before you're ready. This morning I was going to come over...I was going to say...what I wanted to say was...but now all I can say is that...I'm in love with you. I've been in love with you for, ever. I'm a little late, I know I'm a little late in telling you that. I, I just, I just want you to take your time, you know? Take all the time you need, because you have a choice to make. And when I had a choice to make, I chose wrong.
“There is probably no hell for authors in the next world — they suffer so much from critics and publishers in this.” - C. N. Bovee
“I have been successful probably because I have always realized that I knew nothing about writing and have merely tried to tell an interesting story entertainingly.” - Edgar Rice Burroughs
“All good books are alike in that they are truer than if they had really happened and after you are finished reading one you will feel that all that happened to you and afterwards it all belongs to you; the good and the bad, the ecstasy, the remorse and sorrow, the people and the places and how the weather was. If you can get so that you can give that to people, then you are a writer.” - Ernest Hemingway
“Who wants to become a writer? And why? Because it’s the answer to everything. … It’s the streaming reason for living. To note, to pin down, to build up, to create, to be astonished at nothing, to cherish the oddities, to let nothing go down the drain, to make something, to make a great flower out of life, even if it’s a cactus.” —Enid Bagnold

| So I'm sure some of you have been wondering why I haven't updated recently and I'll tell you: college fucking sucks. My life the past two months has basically been continuous papers and projects and tests and finals and basically, this semester kicked my ass (and I wasn't even taking a full load). Finals are over now and I was going to update today but tumblr has decided to be a bitch and not load, at all, evER, so I can't. INSTEAD I decided to discuss something that honestly I get asked about a lot on my blog. I am the first person to admit that I have literally no idea why the flying fuck people ask me this, but they do, and I guess my answer is helpful because I keep getting this question, so I guess I'll try and talk about it some on here.
Q: You seem to be very comfortable with who you are and don't really care what people think of you. How do you do that?
A: Honestly? I have no fucking idea. I was incredibly blessed with my parents instilling in me at a very young age a tremendous amount of self worth and I've always just kinda... done my own thing. I am and always have been a really weird person who doesn't fit into any boxes neatly. In school I never really had a lot of friends in my classes and stuff because I was just so not into it. I mean honestly, it's going to make me sound like a complete and total bitch (btw I am one and I'm proud), but there might have been five kids that I went to school with that I didn't hate. The rest of them were shallow and vapid and self-absorbed and incredibly immature and they cared so much about what people thought that I literally couldn't deal with it, I would just get mad. And they never really tried to relate to me so I mean, it worked, I was happy.
That being said - I am comfortable with who I am. I'm a pretty awful shitty person most of the time but I like who I am because, and this is something that took me a very long time to realize, there's no real point in not liking yourself. Certain things you just cannot change and there's no point in worrying about them! Are there things I would change about myself? Yes, absolutely, in a fucking heartbeat. But I wouldn't be human if that wasn't the case.
So how do you go about being comfortable with yourself and not caring what people think? It's very simple... just do it. Seriously. There's no magic trick, there's no manual I can give you to make it happen, it's just something that you have to do yourself. Start with something small like... not wearing the 'cool' clothes because they're 'cool'. My little brother is in middle school and he gave me an hour long lecture the other day about why it matters if a polo shirt is actually Polo or another brand. He's lectured me on why Jordan's are cool and how Nike Elite's are a must if you don't want to be made fun of and you know what I say to that? Why the fuck do you care if someone makes fun of you BECAUSE OF THE SOCKS YOU'RE WEARING????? O B V I O U S L Y their life is so empty that they have to spend their time worrying about what the fuck you put on your feet. Are you honestly going to tell me that you're concerned with their opinion? And why the fuck do you need to spend $80 on a shirt that I could get at Target for maybe $20? Or $15 on ONE PAIR of socks?! SERIOUSLY?! YOU DON'T EVEN SEE THE SOCKS. Just wear what you want to wear because you want to wear it. Your Jordan's and your polo don't match? You think they look good? Then don't worry about it.
I am going to let you in on a little secret here: you are never going to make everyone happy. Let me repeat that here - YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO MAKE EVERYONE HAPPY. It's just never going to happen. And even if, by some miracle, it does happen and everyone you're concerned with impressing is happy with what you've done and who you are and how you look and what you're wearing, you're probably going to be dead or miserable. People criticize other people because it takes the focus off of themselves. That really awful mean girl or guy at school that makes fun of you? The person you like that you want to impress? The "popular" group that if you get in with will make the rest of your high school or middle school easier? They are not the people who matter. You can dress whatever way they want or do whatever they think is cool or hang out with/make out with/fuck whomever they think you should but they are never going to like the one person who actually matters in all of this - YOU! THE REAL YOU. The awesome, hilarious, smart, beautiful, sexy, amazing, fabulous YOU! Think I sound like an after school special, or worse, your parents? I do. But for once that dumb after school special and your annoying parents got something right my friends.
There is only one you but there are BILLIONS of people on this planet and who knows how many other living beings there are off of this planet? There is no such thing as normal! I repeat: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS NORMAL. DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT SEVEN BILLION PEOPLE SHARE ONE NORM? NO. What's normal to me, middle class kids living in the suburbs of a city, would be completely and terrifyingly foreign to someone else. Everybody is different and that is what makes this world so cool! There is only one you my friend and nobody, I repeat, nobody is exactly like you. Even if you've got an identical twin and you guys do everything together and dress the same I can guaran-damn-tee that there is something that sets the two of you apart from one another. Thankfully society has gotten the idea of appreciating our differences a little more and celebrating them instead of trying to conform to a social norm that some old white dudes have set but so many people still haven't quite grasped the idea.
YOU ARE THE ONLY YOU THAT WILL EVER EXIST. THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY TO BE YOURSELF. THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY TO DRESS, THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY TO LOVE SOMEONE, THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG WAY TO BE A CERTAIN GENDER OR SEXUALITY OR RELIGION OR WHATEVER.
I am never going to please everyone - but I can please myself. Look seriously, I can ramble on here for pages about how awesome you are right now without changing anything at all and how you need to embrace that and celebrate that but it's not going to fix anything if it's just me talking at you. It's something that comes with age and maturity, realizing that the only person you need to worry about being happy is yourself. Because that's the only thing you can do. And you know what? When you're happy with the outfit you're wearing and you think you look hot, there's not really anything someone can say that will take that away from you... because O B V I O U S L Y something is wrong with them and not you.
It's horrendously cliched and it makes me nauseous to say it in an unironic manner but, really? You only live once man. So why the fuck should I care if someone that I don't even talk to doesn't like me? They're obviously the one who's missing out here, not me.
Take it from me, you're probably awesome. And if someone doesn't like awesome, they're the one with the problem.

| somehow i guess i thought if i loved you enough and if i was good
enough to you that you would love me back and i could finally get
what i want at least once but i couldn't even do that and after all my
efforts you still don't want or can't seem to love me like i love you.
i saw the sadness in your eyes but i didn't know what to say.
i couldn't think of anything to say that would take your pain away
so i kept on saying in my head, i'm sorry, i'm sorry, i'm sorry.
to a great mind nothing is little.

so i know she forgives me, just as i forgive her. thomas edison's last
words were: 'it's very beautiful over there' i don't know where there is,

i bet it never ever occurred to you that i can't
say hello to you and risk another goodbye.
  
we say we love flowers, yet we pluck them. we say we

what i have learned from talking about my feelings
- it’s better to not talk about my feelings
you can't lose what you never had, you can't keep what's not yours,
and you can't hold on to something that doesn't want to stay.
there is more to sex appeal than just measurements. i don't
need a bedroom to my womanliness. i can convey just as much
sex appeal, picking appeals off a tree or standing in the rain.

sometimes it is better to be kind than to be right. we do not need
an intelligent mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens.
Misha Collins: I was trying to put a baby to sleep. I failed.
My wife always says, “Don’t rile him up! Don’t rile him up!” because every time I pick him up, it’s bedtime and I wanna put him to sleep, but he’s so cute, I wanna start playing with him, and he always has this expression which is [imitates West] frozen on his face all the time and I always try to get him doing that and after I’ve touched him, he can’t go to sleep.
your heart's against my chest, your lips pressed to my neck, i am falling for
your eyes, but they don't know me yet. with a feeling i will forget, i am in love now.
+ Ed Sherran
you will never love yourself half as much as i love you. you will
never treat yourself right darling but i want you to. if i let you know,
i am here, for you. maybe you will love yourself like i love you.
I said that i don't care, I would walk away, whatever, and i tell myself we were bad
together but that is just me trying to move on without you. but who am i kidding i know
what i'm missing. I had my heart set on you, but nothing else hurts like you do.
sometimes it is better to be kind than to be right. we do not need
an intelligent mind that speaks, but a patient heart that listens.
you can't lose what you never had, you can't keep what's not yours,
and you can't hold on to something that doesn't want to stay.
happiness damn near destroys you, breaks your faith to pieces on the floor. so you tell yourself, that is enough for now, happiness has a violent roar. happiness is like the old man told me look for it, but you will never find it all. let it go, live your life and leave it, then one day, wake up and she will be home, home.
it's okay to cry. it's okay to be sad about it. it's okay to miss him, and it's okay to wish you did something differently. but never blame yourself for how things turned out. never tell yourself you can't do better, and never tell yourself this is end of the road. fate has a time and place for all of us and nothing you can do or say will change that. sure, it is okay to fall but it is never okay to stay down.
sometimes when you give up on someone, it's not because you
don't care anymore. it's because you realize that they don't.
i wanted to tell you that i would never be sorry for loving you. that in a way i still love you and that maybe i always will. i will never regret a single thing we did together because what we had was special. maybe if we were older it would have worked out differently. maybe, i think, it's that i am not ready for forever just yet.
you could feel things or you could find a way to shut down. but once you
were feeling things, you couldn't decide exactly what to feel. that was the
trouble with letting them in at all. they made a mess of the place.
when you truly care for someone, their mistakes never change your
feelings because it's the mind that gets angry but the heart still cares.
Change is a funny thing. We're never quite sure what we're becoming, or why. Then one day we look at ourselves and wonder who we are, and how we got there.
 
There's always that one person. No matter how many relationships they've had, how many times they didn't respond to your text, how many times they ignored you, how many times they made you feel like you didn't matter, how many times you sit on the floor crying because of them, or made you feel like shit; no matter how many times you say they don't matter, deep down, every time that they text you, look at you, give you a hug, even just say your name; your walls break down and you can't help but be happy. Even if you don't want to be.
I love you, and I probably always will. But we go days without having a meaningful conversation, and I used to miss you so much when that happened. But it never seemed like you missed me. And I guess because of it, I stopped missing you.
 
 
 
I do understand the impulse. The impulse to put your hand out and want someone to be there at the end of your reach. To want someone to be close to. To want to kiss or touch even if it's wrong. The point is, you can't control these feelings. Even if they're wrong, they're there. They're always there.
 
You should never ignore someone's pain or act as if it doesn't matter. For no matter how small their worry is to you and how simple to solve it may seem, to them, it is a disaster. And we all want someone to calm the storm, not to tell us it doesn't exist.
I don't know what to do anymore. Life seems like a series of infinite nothings. It's not that I'm unhappy. I'm just lost.
Every addiction was just a way to treat the same problem. Drugs or overeating or alcohol or sex, it was all just another way to find peace. To escape what we know, our education, our bite of the apple. Language, she said, was just our way to explain away the wonder and glory of the world. She said people can't deal with how beautiful the world really is. How it can't be explained and understood.
And I hope that someday we could talk and forget that time ever drew distance between us. We could make a bridge out of words, as fragile as it might be, the awkward pauses and incomprehensible mumbling twisting and twining into some stronger foothold. Someday, I might reach you and redeem myself. But I wouldn't count on it any time soon.
I’ve been in this constant state of missing you and wanting nothing to do with you and trying not to think about you and letting you consume my mind and hating myself for it over and over again.
  
I just don’t know what to say to you anymore. I feel like even a simple hello would lead to an unnecessary fight. A simple glance from across the room would cause an air of tension between us. Simply passing by your car on the road would lead to piles and piles of questions. I can’t take it anymore. I want things to be okay. I need things to be the same, because nothing really gets better with time and I’ve been waiting too long.
  
Happiness looks too small when you hold it in your hands, just let it go once, and you realize how precious it was.
  
She sat and stared at him and cried and cried enormous pools of tears. Tears of anger. Tears of sadness. Hopeless tears. Tired tears. Tears that spoke aloud and said, “I give up. I’m done. You win.” And she was serious this time.
  
  
I don’t know. Just some days are harder than others. Some days you don’t cross my mind at all, and other days you’re the only thing I think about. Some days are so easy because I’ve got distractions. Some days I just sit in my room and listen to sad songs and think about you. I can’t help it. I can’t shake this feeling of uncertainty, of not knowing which direction to move in. I just want you to give me closure, because I can’t deal with all these different feelings coming at me.
So many times it seemed like there were chances to stop things before they started. Or even stop them in midstream. But it was even worse when you knew at that very moment that there was still time to save yourself, and yet you couldn’t even budge.
Time meant nothing, anything seemed real. You kissed like fire and you made me feel like every word you said was meant to be. It couldn’t have been that easy to forget about me.
You can say a lot of things about me, but you can’t say I didn’t try. I fought so hard for you for the longest time and I never stopped. I’m still holding on, but you let me go. I wanted to save us.
Winter’s cold, spring erases, and the calm away by the storm is chasen. Everything good needs replacing, hope all these changes happen with you.
I’m not good at relationships, I always manage to find the flaws. Sometimes in others but mostly my own. I foretell the ending then go and create the cause, save myself and end up alone.
 
Love me or hate me, both are in my favor. If you love me, I’ll always be in your heart. If you hate me, I’ll always be in your mind.
 
You’re only happy when I’m wasted. I point my finger but I just cant place it. Feels like I’m falling in love when I’m falling to the bathroom floor. I remember how you tasted, I’ve had you so many times, let’s face it. Feels like I’m falling in love alone.
 
Fighting with him was like trying to solve a crossword and realizing there’s no right answer.
if you are going to stay, stay forever. if you are going to leave, then
do it today. if you are going to change, change for the better. and
if you are going to talk, make sure you mean all that you say.
 
these are things that i could not tell you when i want nothing more to forget.
things that have gone wrong. things that have gone right. things that will
never happen. things that are your fault, my fault, the faults of no one,
and these are the things that we did not do and will not let go of.
 
my eyes are my favorite part of me - not
for how they look, but for how they see.

The year is 2020. Cole Sprouse is getting married. The bride, when she is supposed to say ‘I do,’ instead says ‘IT WAS JUST A SOCIAL EXPERIMENT, HOW DO YOU LIKE ME NOW?’ and storms off. It is the fifth time this has happened. Such is life for Cole Sprouse.
i don't ever want to hurt you, i don't want to have to share my pain with you,
more so shift it onto you. so i hold it in, and i'm sorry. i keep getting upset,
and when you are there, when you try and talk to me i keep pushing you away.
i have so much to live for, so many things to be grateful to have. but
somehow deep inside i feel i would give it all, just to have another chance to
talk to you again. I would drop everythingif it meant another chance at us.
things are sweeter when they are lost. i know - because once i
wanted something and got it. it was the only thing i ever wanted
badly…and when i got it - it turned into dust in my hands.

when you are sitting there not getting anything done like you are supposed to,
when you are walking around living your life as if I am not a part of it, when
you are out there in real-man's land living life with no regrets. I will just hope
you are thinking of me, and if you are just let me know. I am worried to death.
you can't tell someone that you will be there and then walk away
like you don't care. i am not saying this because i am mad, i just
want you to understand. one day it is going to catch up with you.
 
 
don't ever let yourself get so angry that you stop loving, because one day you
will wake up from that anger and the person you love won't be around anymore.
 
 
“You can’t blame a writer for what the characters say.”
— Truman Capote
 
the worst thing is loving someone when you know you shouldn't anymore. it's caring about
someone, wondering how they are and what they are up to when the truth is they have
stopped wondering about you a long time ago. the worst thing is remembering every single
detail or your relationship when he's obviously long forgotten about you. the worst thing is
feeling the same as you ever did, knowing you shouldn't, because he doesn't anymore.
i remember when you leaned in quick to kiss me, and i swear that
not a single force on earth could stop the trembling go my hand.
i don't know where i stand in people's lives. one minute they treat me like
the most important person to them, then like I am nothing to them the next
minute. am I paranoid or is this actually real to many other people?
 
never apologize for being sensitive or emotional. let this be a sign that you've got a big
heart and aren't afraid to let others see it. showing your emotions is a sign of strength.
+ Brigitte Nicole
i can't be with someone who has doubts, no matter how small they are, i need
someone who wants to be with me as much as i want to be with them. i don't
want just part of your heart, i want all of it, and you can't promise me that.
 
beggars can't be choosers but I am begging you to stay and I wonder where you
are tonight, and where you are today. When i make this music louder, maybe then
you will hear me sing, but i cannot make a promise, and i cannot stop the sting.
 
people say you don't know what you've got until it's gone. truth is,
you knew what you had, you just never thought you'd lose it.
you can love someone so much…
but you can never love people as much as you can miss them.
+ John Green
 
you need to go this time. you need to see for yourself. i can sit here and tell
you that it's a colossal mistake, that all roads lead back to me, but it
doesn't matter. words, speeches - they sound great, but they don't add
up to anything. all that matters right now is what you want.
 
if you really love that person, learn to wait. maybe you are
not meant to be together for today but meant to be in the future.
 
and maybe we got lost in translation. maybe i asked for too much, but
maybe this thing was a masterpiece, until you tore it all up. running scared,
i was there i remember it all too well. you called me up again just to break me
like a promise so casually and cruel in the name of being honest. I'm a
crumbled up piece of paper lying here because i remember it all too well.
i think we are just gonna have to be secretly in
love with each other and leave it at that.
+ Margot Tenenbaum
i want to be someone you can't just lose interest in so easily.
someone you want to be around. someone you want to experience.
i would give anything to read your minute, to get into your head. then maybe
i would find out how to get you to notice me once more, to make you want me
like you used to. but then again, i guess i would also find out how much you
don't care for me, and what you really think about when you look at me.
 
you treat me like i am nothing then you expect me to be there when you decide to
come back. I have got news for you, i am never going to be here for you again.
the problem with the world is that the intelligent people are
full of doubts while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

if your love is deep, passionate, and extremely profound, fight for it. otherwise don't bother.
we already have so many mediocre things in life, and love should not be one of them.
part of me wanted to confront him and demand to know everything.
while I was lying in my bed, i had imagined what i would say. but i
knew myself too well to think I would really have the guts to do it.
 
it's time you learn that you can't have every little thing that you want. it
is time you learn to live with one or the other, no in betweens. for once in
your life it's time you man up and deal with the real consequences of
everything you have done. to me. to her. to your own self.
i have so much to live for, so many things to be grateful to have. but somehow
deep inside i feel i would give it all, just to have another chance to talk
to you again. i would drop everything if it meant another chance at us.
 
 
no one ever found out what was happening inside of me. how the pain

i think of the slaughtered nights i spent all over the world waiting to feel your touch.
+ Henry Rollins
you know what, at one point he probably did love you back but he was just a boy lacking courage, inferior to pride, silent of words, and stagnant with change. both too afraid to embark on opportunity, to embrace life. so life flew by and together you died while alone you lived.
we drink, playing hide and seek with the omnipresent fear. we drink to find a

she wanted something else, something different, something better, and
something more. passion and romance perhaps, or maybe a quiet conversation
in a candlelit room, or perhaps something as simple as not being second best.
You thought I couldn't do this without you, but guess what, I sleep great at night now. I don't hurt because you're not here. I just had to learn to accept it and move on, and I did. But you, you're the one who keeps crawling back. So next time you think "Oh hey, she's happy, got to mess that up," it's not going to happen, because this time, you're not going to get what you want. This time, I'm going to get what I want and what I want, is not you.
Sometimes I really don’t feel like existing like not in a suicidal way but I just wish there was a way of pausing life so that I could sleep for a few weeks and figure some stuff out and then not have to feel guilty for missing loads of stuff because really no time had passed at all
You're the one that walked out of my life, not the other way around. If you want back in, you need to show me that you won't walk out again.
I will never regret you or say that I wish I'd never met you, because once upon a time you were exactly what I needed.
Don't tie your heart to a person who has nothing to offer you. Let it go. It might hurt for a while but when you get over it you will see it is better.
I know that things between us are pretty much beyond repair now. And I wouldn't ever presume to try and make everything better with a conversation, so that's not what this is, but I just wanted to tell you -I just wanted to say, I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the pain it caused you. But mostly, I'm sorry for my part in it. I'm sorry because I miss our friendship. And however far off it may be, I look forward to the day that we can be friends again.
 
Don't you ever forget the things I told you because I meant every word I said.
Just because you miss someone, doesn't mean you need them back in your life. Missing is just a part of moving on.
I want things to be more than okay. For you to say what you mean and mean it. I want this tension, this awkwardness to be gone. I don't want you, that ship sailed. I just want something other than this.

Sometimes you have to hurt someone’s feelings just to let them understand how it felt when they hurt yours.
While you were sleeping I figured out everything. I was constructed for you, and you were molded for me. Now I feel your name coursing through my veins. You shine so bright it's insane, you put the sun to shame.
I love him, but I also think that you can love people who aren't good for you.

I tried telling you before you left, but I was screaming under my breath. You are the only thing that makes sense, just ignore all the present tense.

it's not okay because he made me laugh, because i didn't have to pretend to be
anything other than who i am when i was with him. because i don't believe that
stuff about finding your other half, but because I do believe that what you look for
is someone who makes you a better person when you are with them, who changes
you for the better, who makes you the best person you can possibly be,
because i thought that i had found that in him.

i don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but i can tell you what it is for me. love is knowing all about someone and still wanting to be with them more than any other person. love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you may be ashamed of. love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak in the knees when they walk in a room and smile at you.
 
good luck trying to find someone who cares like i did. who understands
you like i do. who is forgiving like i am, and when you realize there
is no one out there like me… i won't be where you left me.

seriously, you never get hurt, if you never get hurt, you always have fun.

And you know you will never be the same again.”

People are always shouting they want to create a better future. It’s not true. The future is an apathetic void of no interest to anyone.

When we hold each other, in the darkness, it doesn’t make the darkness go away. The bad things are still out there. The nightmares still walking. When we hold each other we feel not safe, but better. “It’s all right” we whisper, “I’m here. I love you.” and we lie: “I’ll never leave you.”
For a moment or two, the darkness doesn’t seem so bad.

What if Supernatural is just a story being written by a lonely writer who lives across the street from these two brothers? No one ever really spoke to him, or bothered to ask if he was okay, but one day his car broke down and the older brother came out and helped him fix it. The next day the younger brother came over to see if he could use his computer to take an online test for class and they end up talking about Stanford. Suddenly, he has friends, and they are his heroes, so he sits down and writes amazing adventures where the brothers are the heroes, and they save people. Bad things happen, but family is the most important thing.
Then, on a whim, he writes himself into the story. He changes his mind later, and kills the character based on himself, but neither brother will let him stay out of their lives for long. If he hides away, they come and find him. If he tries to cut them out, they forgive him.
One day he comes home to find the elder brother on his computer, reading his stories, and all he can think of is how he wrote his own character, staring longingly at this man, wistful, but ever distant.
“So Dean…that’s me, right?”
And he nods, ever so slightly. “I’m sorry.”
“Sorry for what?”
“For Cas.”
And then the elder brother grins. “What are you talking about? Cas is my favorite character.”

“Because every time you see them happy you remember how sad they’re going to be. And it breaks your heart. Because what’s the point in them being happy now if they’re going to be sad later. The answer is, of course, because they a re going to be sad later.”
You chew people up and then you spit them out again. I loved you - do you hear me? I loved you. And what did it get me? Yeah, I’ll tell you: a big nothing. You’re like a sponge. You take, take, take, and drain others of their love and emotion. Yeah, well, I’ve had enough.

You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.

Sylvia Plath - The Bell Jar
 
If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I’m neurotic as hell.
Sylvia Plath - The Bell Jar
I would like to be the air that inhabits you for a moment only. I would like to be that unnoticed and that necessary.
Margaret Atwood
All great and precious things are lonely.
John Steinbeck - East of Eden
I fell in love with her courage, her sincerity, and her flaming self respect. And it’s these things I’d believe in, even if the whole world indulged in wild suspicions that she wasn’t all she should be. I love her and it is the beginning of everything.
F. Scott Fitzgerald
 
whiskey makes the heart beat faster
but it sure doesn’t help the
mind and isn’t it funny how you can ache just
from the deadly drone of
existence?
Charles Bukowski - The People Look Like Flowers at Last
im afraid my online friends are gonna meet me in person and be like “oh”
 
 
I love you and it’s getting worse.
Joseph Morris
I would be lying if I said there were not times that I am an earthquake contained inside this skin.
Tyler Knott Gregson
 
I will find that special person who is wrong for me in just the right way.
Let our scars fall in love.
Galway Kinnell
 
People don’t always get what they deserve in this world.
Lemony Snicket - The Blank Book
I’m tired of watching you be in love with someone else-someone, incidentally, who will never love you back. Not the way I do.
Cassandra Clare - City of Glass
 
And once the storm is over you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, in fact, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm you won’t be the same person who walked in.
Haruki Murakami
 
 
Sometimes, I don’t understand the demons on Supernatural.
Like, okay, you can’t cross a salt line. Fine. But they only ever salt the doors/windows.
You’re a demon. Just punch through a wall.
Don’t tell me you’re afraid of a little vandalism.
#don’t encourage them
Every morning I jump out of bed and step on a landmine. The landmine is me. After the explosion, I spent the rest of the day putting the pieces together.
Ray Bradbury
If you asked me now who I am, the only answer I could give with any certainty would be my name. For the rest: my loves, my hates, down even to my deepest desires, I can no longer say whether these emotions are my own, or stolen from those I once so desperately wished to be.
Evelyn Waugh - Brideshead Revisited
How do you get so empty? Who takes it out of you?
Ray Bradbury - Fahrenheit 451
We all wear masks and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing our own skin.
André Berthiaume
Have you ever just looked at someone and thought, “I really love you”. They’re just talking or humming or watching a movie or reading a book or laughing or something, and there’s something about them in that moment—their body is alive, there’s a light in their eyes, something—that makes you think, “I just really love you.” It’s a weird sensation to think this, but it’s pretty awesome that we can feel this way about another being.
I think that you find your own way. You have your own rules. You have your own understanding of yourself, and that’s what you’re going to count on. In the end, it’s what feels right to you. Not what your mother told you. Not what some actress told you. Not what anybody else told you but the still, small voice.
Meryl Streep
Never love anyone who treats you like you’re ordinary.
Oscar Wilde
I’ve been making a list of the things they don’t teach you at school. They don’t teach you how to love somebody. They don’t teach you how to be famous. They don’t teach you how to be rich or how to be poor. They don’t teach you how to walk away from someone you don’t love any longer. They don’t teach you how to know what’s going on in someone else’s mind. They don’t teach you what to say to someone who’s dying. They don’t teach you anything worth knowing.
Neil Gaiman - The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones
 
I guess that’s what saying good-bye is always like—like jumping off an edge. The worst part is making the choice to do it. Once you’re in the air, there’s nothing you can do but let go.
Lauren Oliver - Before I Fall
I knew the second I met you
that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it
wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.
Jamie McGuire - Beautiful Disaster
Experience is a brutal teacher, but you learn. My God, do you learn.
C.S. Lewis
i really don’t understand how a lot of you are single because you’re all attractive and have good music taste like what more do people want
I am a jumble of passions, misgivings, and wants. It seems that I am always in a state of wishing and rarely in a state of contentment.
Libba Bray - The Sweet Far Thing
Sometimes I wanted to take a memory - one perfect memory - curl up in it, and go to sleep.
Kiersten White - Supernaturally
Monsters are real, and ghosts are real too. They live inside of us, and sometimes, they win.
Stephen King
  
A lot of parents will do anything for their kids except let them be themselves.
Banksy
 
 
Go and make interesting mistakes, make amazing mistakes, make glorious and fantastic mistakes. Break rules. Leave the world more interesting for your being here.
Neil Gaiman
Believe me when I tell you
Life will not break your heart
It’ll crush it
Henry Rollins - Blues Jam
And if you can’t see anything beautiful about yourself, get a better mirror. Look a little closer, just stare a little longer, because there’s something inside you that made you keep going despite everyone who told you to quit. You built a cast around your broken heart and you signed it yourself, you signed it ‘They were wrong.’
Shane Koyczan
You’ll meet her, she’s very pretty, even though sometimes she’s sad for many days at a time. You’ll see, when she smiles, you’ll love her.
Pan’s Labyrinth - (2006 Film)
  
She did not giggle wildly and blush when she saw him, nor did she chalk his name on trees or write it on the walls of the Kissing Bridge. She simply lived with his face in her heart all the time, a kind of sweet, hurtful ache.
Stephen King - IT
Sometimes, loving your body is not an option. Sometimes, the best we can do is accept our bodies as the changeable, beautiful, frustrating vessels they are. That’s OK. Expecting yourself to have a full-on love affair with your body at all times is asking too much. Bodies are occasionally annoying. What we can do is know them, and decide for ourselves when they feel good, and when they feel less good, and what we might do to make them feel better again. Even if we can’t love our bodies, we can make sure we don’t hate them.
Lesley Kinzel (x)
 
Basically what we have here is a dreamer. Somebody out of touch with reality. When she jumped, she probably thought she’d fly
Jeffrey Eugenides -The Virgin Suicides
 
“The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen.”
-Elisabeth Kübler-Ross
I have scars on my hands from touching certain people
J.D. Salinger - Raise High the Roof Beam, Carpenters and Seymour: An Introduction
I know that’s what people say— you’ll get over it. I’d say it, too. But I know it’s not true. Oh, you’ll be happy again, never fear. But you won’t forget. Every time you fall in love it will be because something in the man reminds you of him.
Betty Smith - A Tree Grows in Brooklyn
You have to believe there are kisses and laughs and risks worth taking.
David Levithan - How They Met, and Other Stories
 
I’ve always had a terrible weakness for beautiful but sad things.
Sylvain Reynard - Gabriel’s Inferno
  
When we hold each other, in the darkness, it doesn’t make the darkness go away. The bad things are still out there. The nightmares still walking. When we hold each other we feel not safe, but better. “It’s all right” we whisper, “I’m here, I love you.” and we lie: “I’ll never leave you.” For just a moment or two the darkness doesn’t seem so bad.
Neil Gaiman - Neil Gaiman’s Midnight Days
One of the cruelest things you can do to another person is pretend you care about them more than you really do.
Douglas Coupland
She has often felt that her outsides were too dull for her insides, that deep within her there was something better than what everyone else could see.
Myla Goldberg - Bee Season
 
 
I don’t know if you or I exist, but somewhere there are poems about us.
Linh Dinh from Poetry Sightings
 
 
The things she most wanted to tell him would lose their meaning the moment she put them into words.
Haruki Murakami - 1Q84
 
What you have lost will not be returned to you; it always be lost. You’re left with only your scars to mark the void. All you can choose to do is go on, or not. But if you go on, it’s knowing you carry your scars with you.
Charles Frazier - Cold Mountain
You don’t love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.
Oscar Wilde
 
 
It is often difficult to admit that someone you love is not perfect, or to consider aspects of a person that are less than admirable.
Lemony Snicket, Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can’t Avoid
"Does she know you love her?”
“Of course.”
I paused. The obstacle seemed unreal to me.
“If you love her,” I said, “you’ll love somebody else someday.
The Bell Jar - Sylvia Plath
These violent delights have violent ends and in their triumph die, like fire and powder which, as they kiss, consume
Romeo and Juliette - Shakespeare
Perhaps when we find ourselves wanting everything, it is because we are dangerously close to wanting nothing.
Sylvia Plath
“Dress suitably in short skirts and strong boots, leave your jewels in the bank, and buy a revolver.”
— Countess Markievicz, 19th century Irish revolutionary, dispensing eternally relevant fashion advice
We need never be hopeless, because we can never be irreparably broken.
John Green - Looking For Alaska
Sometimes words are not enough.
Lemony Snicket - Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can’t Avoid
You can’t be friends with the person you were meant to spent your life with
Nicole Williams - Crash
 
there are worse things
than being alone
but it often takes
decades to realize this
and most often when you do
it’s too late
and there’s nothing worse
than too late
Charles Bukowski
I wanted people to trust me, despite anything they’d heard. And more than that, I wanted them to know me. Not the stuff they thought they knew about me. No, the real me. I wanted them to get past the rumors.
Jay Asher - Thirteen Reasons Why
We’re so arrogant, aren’t we? So afraid of age, we do everything we can to prevent it. We don’t realize what a privilege it is to grow old with someone.
P.S I Love You - (2007 film)
Life starts all over again when it gets crisp in the fall.
F. Scott Fitzgerald - The Great Gatsby
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.
Richard Bach - Illusions: The Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah
Anyone can see that perfect is stupid. Things in the real world aren’t supposed to be perfect. Look at people.
Catcher, Caught - Sarah Collins Honenberger
trying to explain fandom things to non-fandom people is like trying to explain trigonometry to a dog
except the dog won’t judge you for knowing trigonometry
I suppose I love this life,
in spite of my clenched fist.
Andrea Gibson
Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.
Terry Pratchett - A Hat Full of Sky (Discworld, #32)
“I remember there was one moment, when we were filming in America, and we were having a picnic and I wanted to hug Amy because the Doctor had been killed, and I wanted to hold her and hug her. Karen looked at me sort of like “What the hell are you doing?” She was really shocked and I felt really bad but I did it because I wanted to — it seemed like it was maternal but really it was the other way around, with me as the daughter. But because she didn’t know she just thought “What the hell is Alex hugging me all the time for?”
Then I stopped because I felt really bad, I just thought “Obviously this doesn’t work with what she’s intending on doing with the scene, so I’d better lay off,” so when we shot the reveal scene I said to her “I don’t know if you remember…” and she went “Oh my God! Yes, now I understand why you did that. I thought you were just like a lesbo!”
— Alex Kingston, Doctor Who Insider # 004
#listen Karen if Alex Kingston hits on you YOU LES UP
“Just remember that sometimes, the way you think about a person isn’t the way they actually are.”
— John Green
Imagine person A of your OTP kissing person B’s scars.
It’s like if the music is loud enough I won’t be able to listen to my own thoughts.
Nic Sheff
When I look at my room, I see a girl who loves books.
John Green, Looking for Alaska
“Attacking femaleness, deriding ‘girly stuff’ and rolling your eyes at ‘women’s issues’ declaring yourself a ‘tomboy’ who gets along better with men because women are silly or pretty or whatever these are expressions of internalized sexism. If that’s the way you feel about your own sex you’ll be doomed to feel inferior no matter what you achieve in life.”
— Ariel Levy, Female Chauvinist Pigs: Women and the Rise of Raunch Culture
You alone are enough. You have nothing to prove to anybody.
Maya Angelou
Have you ever been in love? Horrible isn’t it? It makes you so vulnerable. It opens your chest and it opens up your heart and it means that someone can get inside you and mess you up. You build up all these defenses, you build up a whole suit of armor, so that nothing can hurt you, then one stupid person, no different from any other stupid person, wanders into your stupid life…You give them a piece of you. They didn’t ask for it. They did something dumb one day, like kiss you or smile at you, and then your life isn’t your own anymore. Love takes hostages. It gets inside you. It eats you out and leaves you crying in the darkness, so simple a phrase like ‘maybe we should be just friends’ turns into a glass splinter working its way into your heart. It hurts. Not just in the imagination. Not just in the mind. It’s a soul-hurt, a real gets-inside-you-and-rips-you-apart pain. I hate love.
Neil Gaiman - The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones
I like my body when it is with your body.
e.e cummings
You don’t have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body.
C.S. Lewis
There is so much hurt in this game of searching for a mate, of testing, trying. And you realize suddenly that you forgot it was a game, and turn away in tears.
Sylvia Plath
It matters not who you love, where you love, why you love, when you love or how you love, it matters only that you love
John Lennon
  
Some of us think holding on makes us strong but sometimes it is letting go
Hermann Hesse
I have found it easier to identify with the characters who verge upon hysteria, who were frightened of life, who were desperate to reach out to another person. But these seemingly fragile people are the strong people really.
Tennessee Williams
 
 
She may be going to Hell, of course, but at least she isn’t standing still
e.e. cummings
I kept hearing that “better to have loved and lost” bullshit. Another falsehood. Trust me, it is not better. Don’t show me paradise and then burn it down.
Harlan Coben - Tell No One
  
Take me with you. I want a doomed love. I want streets at night, wind and rain, no one wondering where I am.
Michael Cunningham - The Hours
  
You don’t have to stay anywhere forever.
Neil Gaiman - The Sandman, Vol. 9: The Kindly Ones
I didn’t choose the fandom life,
the fandom life grabbed and chloroformed me on the way from school and dragged my unconscious body to it’s basement.
The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.
G.K. Chesterton
Books say: She did this because. Life says: She did this. Books are where things are explained to you; life is where things aren’t. I’m not surprised some people prefer books. Books make sense of life. The only problem is that the lives they make sense of are other people’s lives, never your own.
Julian Barnes - Flaubert’s Parrot
 
Let everything happen to you
Beauty and terror
Just keep going
No feeling is final
Rainer Maria Rilke
dont even pretend that you wouldnt kill someone if murder was legal
Don’t exist.
Live.
Get out, explore.
Thrive.
Challenge authority. Challenge yourself.
Evolve.
Change forever.
Become who you say you always will. Keep moving. Don’t stop. Start the revolution. Become a freedom fighter. Become a superhero. Just because everyone doesn’t know your name doesn’t mean you don’t matter.
Brian Krans - A Constant Suicide
 
But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you. I love you. With all my heart, I love you.
Alan Moore - V for Vendetta
I want to talk and be friends with the Supernatural cast but at the same time I want to have a massive orgy with all of them do you see my dilemma
All great and precious things are lonely.
John Steinbeck - East of Eden
I don’t consider myself a pessimist. I think of a pessimist as someone who is waiting for it to rain. And I feel soaked to the skin.
Leonard Cohen
Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering.
Nicole Krauss - The History of Love
If you liked being a teenager, there’s something really wrong with you.
Stephen King
I think you still love me, but we can’t escape the fact that I’m not enough for you. I knew this was going to happen. So I’m not blaming you for falling in love with another woman. I’m not angry, either. I should be, but I’m not. I just feel pain. A lot of pain. I thought I could imagine how much this would hurt, but I was wrong.
Haruki Murakami - South of the Border, West of the Sun
She says nothing at all, but simply stares upward into the dark sky and watches, with sad eyes, the slow dance of the infinite stars.
Neil Gaiman - Stardust
Sometimes I can hear my bones straining under the weight of all the lives I’m not living.
Jonathan Safran Foer - Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close
 
“There’s a reason I said I’d be happy alone. It wasn’t ‘cause I thought I’d be happy alone. It was because I thought if I loved someone and then it fell apart, I might not make it. It’s easier to be alone, because what if you learn that you need love and you don’t have it? What if you like it and lean on it? What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Losing love is like organ damage. It’s like dying. The only difference is death ends. This? It could go on forever.”
— Meredith Grey, Grey’s Anatomy
You are so busy being you that you have no idea how utterly unprecedented you are.
John Green - The Fault in Our Stars
“Femininity is depicted as weakness, the sapping of strength, yet masculinity is so fragile that apparently even the slightest brush with the feminine destroys it.”
— Gwen Sharp in Policing Mascuility in Slim Jim’s “Spice Loss” Ads (via biraciallyinsensitive)
There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.
Maya Angelou
there’s a bluebird in my heart that
wants to get out
but I’m too clever, I only let him out
at night sometimes
when everybody’s asleep.
I say, I know that you’re there,
so don’t be
sad.
Charles Bukowski - Bluebird
She wasn’t doing a thing that I could see, except standing there, leaning on the balcony railing, holding the universe together.
J.D. Salinger - A Girl I Knew
 
sometimes i get new followers and i’ll look at their blogs and literally nothing about me should appeal to them
but i’ve just realized i’m their shame blog
i’m the blog they follow to hide their secret interests
welcome my lost children, it is okay, do not shy away from the light that i have to offer you
So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them.
Stephen Chbosky, The Perks of Being a Wallflower
I used many times to touch my own chest and feel, under its asthmatic quiver, the engine of the heart and lungs and blood and feel amazed at what I sensed was the enormity of the power I possessed. Not magical power, but real power. The power simply to go on, the power to endure, that is power enough, but I felt I had also the power to create, to add, to delight, to amaze and to transform.
Stephen Fry - Moab Is My Washpot
He had to miss me. It’s not possible for one person to miss another person so much she thinks she might die, and for that other person not to even miss her at all, is it?
Melissa Kantor
You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should’ve behaved better.
Anne Lamott
I urge you to please notice when you are happy, and exclaim or murmur or think at some point, ‘If this isn’t nice, I don’t know what is.’
Kurt Vonnegut - A Man Without A Country
You’ve got to let go of who you were, to become who you will be.
Janet Fitch
Picking five favorite books is like picking the five body parts you’d most like not to lose.
Neil Gaiman
Is it possible for home to be a person and not a place?
Stephanie Perkins - Anna and the French Kiss
We found out a long time ago that we weren’t meant to fall in love with each other. But a part of me still fell in hope with him.
David Levithan - Boy Meets Boy
Some people feel like they don’t deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past.
Jon Krakauer - Into the Wild
You’re a library of me.
Zadie Smith
I’d cut my soul into a million different pieces just to form a constellation to light your way home. I’d write love poems to the parts of yourself you can’t stand. I’d stand in the shadows of your heart and tell you I’m not afraid of your dark.
Andrea Gibson
I hope you read some fine books and kiss someone who thinks you’re wonderful, and don’t forget to make some art — write or draw or build or sing or live as only you can.
Neil Gaiman
I didn’t need you, you idiot. I picked you. And then you picked me back.
John Green - Paper Towns
In the end you can’t always choose what to keep. You can only choose how you let it go.
Ally Condie - Crossed
She was feeling the pressure of the world outside and she wanted to see him and feel his presence beside her and be reassured that she was doing the right thing after all.
F. Scott Fitzgerald - The Great Gatsby
Maybe there’s something you’re afraid to say, or someone you’re afraid to love, or somewhere you’re afraid to go. It’s gonna hurt. It’s gonna hurt because it matters.
John Green - Will Grayson, Will Grayson
It is not our silence that is deafening, but all the words underneath it, yelled in our heads.
David Levithan
The cure for anything is salt water - sweat, tears, or the sea.
Isak Dinesen
Do your thing and don’t care if they like it.
Tina Fey - Bossypants
And even if somebody else has it much worse, that doesn’t really change the fact that you have what you have.
Stephen Chbosky - The Perks Of Being A Wallflower
There is no love sincerer than the love of food.
George Bernard Shaw - Man and Superman
Never, ever, let anyone tell you what you can and can't do. Prove the cynics wrong. Pity them for they have no imagination. They sky's the limit. Your sky. Your limit. Now. Let's dance. - Tom Hiddleston
We're all flawed heroes. Responsibility is power. Take responsibility for the consequences of your actions, and the world is yours. Everything is a choice. - Tom Hiddleston
 
I try not to make plans. God always laughs at your plans. I’m going to keep the door open, and keep the page blank, and see what gets painted upon it. - Tom Hiddleston
The dream is to keep surprising yourself, never mind the audience. -Tom Hiddleston
I represent to you all the sins you never had the courage to commit.
Oscar Wilde - The Picture of Dorian Gray
 
“Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in the office or mowing your lawn. Climb that goddamn mountain.”
— Jack Kerouac
That night when you kissed me, I left a poem in your mouth, and you can hear some of the lines every time you breathe out.
Andrea Gibson
Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.
Ellen DeGeneres
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
You must remember, family is often born of blood, but it doesn’t depend on blood. Nor is it exclusive of friendship. Family members can be your best friends, you know. And best friends, whether or not they are related to you, can be your family.
Trenton Lee Stewart - The Mysterious Benedict Society
We judge others instantly by their clothes, their cars, their appearance, their race, their education, their social status. The list is endless. What gets me is that most people decide who another person is before they have even spoken to them. What’s even worse is that these same people decide who someone else is, and don’t even know who they are themselves.
Ashly Lorenzana
That’s always seemed so ridiculous to me, that people want to be around someone because they’re pretty. It’s like picking your breakfeast cereals based on color instead of taste.
John Green - Paper Towns
You guys better appreciate this, I didn't fall asleep until five am on Friday (which is now yesterday) and woke up at 9:45 and now it's 1:11 am on Saturday and I still haven't gotten to sleep yet. | | |
