“Spend your free time the way you like, not the way you think you’re supposed to.” ― Susan Cain, Quiet

[animatedtvfilm]

[luxe-pauvre]

Everything worthwhile in life is won through surmounting the associated negative experience. Any attempt to escape the negative, to avoid it or quash it or silence it, only backfires. The avoidance of suffering is a form of suffering. The avoidance of struggle is a struggle. The denial of failure is a failure. Hiding what is shameful is itself a form of shame.  Pain is an inextricable thread in the fabric of life, and to tear it out is not only impossible, but destructive: attempting to tear it out unravels everything else with it. To try to avoid pain is to give too many fucks about pain. In contrast, if you’re able to not give a fuck about the pain, you become unstoppable.

Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck (via luxe-pauvre)

I feel humiliated, inadequate. So much of what one thinks, imagines, is false. How carefully one must compare it with reality, retouch it. But I get tired, so deeply tired. I crave peace, a choice, a simplification. Which one? Whatever I choose seems to demand a sacrifice I cannot make.

Anaïs Nin, from a diary entry featured in Trapeze: The Unexpurgated Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1947–1955 (via violentwavesofemotion)

And once again we repressed what we most wanted to say and slunk home, each with a heavy stone in our hearts.

To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don’t need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself.

You are mysterious. I love you. You’re beautiful, intelligent, and virtuous, and that’s the rarest known combination.
