How bittersweet it is, to have loved.

“I think of you often. Especially in the evenings, when I am on the balcony and it’s too dark to write or to do anything but wait for the stars. A time I love. One feels half disembodied, sitting like a shadow at the door of one’s being while the dark tide rises. Then comes the moon, marvelously serene, and some stars, very merry for some reason of their own. It is so easy to forget, in a wordly life, to attend to these miracles. But no matter. They are waiting when one returns.”

— Katherine Mansfield, Selected Letters

I always wondered if you were drawn to me for the same reason I was drawn to you - the malingering of sadness

The thing about micro traumas is that no-one ever talks about it- the ones that you don't notice at first until the damage has weaved its way through to your core- leaving you with a sense of numbness and with none to point the blame at.

“The bravest thing I ever did was continuing my life when I wanted to die.”

“I’m a soft believer in the wisdom of loving someone in such a way that sets them free because love blossoms in appreciation. Love blossoms when it’s watered with gentleness, tenderness, and care. Love blossoms when it is given the space to be beautiful on its own.”

— Juansen Dizon

I fell in love with the idea of someone, I would dream about the life we could have- but I’d never let myself get close enough to that- for it could ruin the idea of them I had.

“i was often mocked to believe i could be the most peculiar person to exist, but i think now, in a world full of critically misunderstood people, there ought to be someone who feels slightly strange, odd and out of place, with a passionate rage just like me.”

— Ekta Somera

“I’m not used to being loved. I wouldn’t know what to do.”

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

“And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can’t ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it’s already happened.”

— Douglas Coupland, Life After God

[quotemadness]

“To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded.”

— Ralph Waldo Emerson (via quotemadness)

“Those who love you are not fooled by mistakes you have made or dark images you hold about yourself. They remember your beauty when you feel ugly; your wholeness when you are broken; your innocence when you feel guilty; and your purpose when you are confused.”

— Alan Cohen (via quotemadness)
