A Glimpse Of Her Soul

Write how you’re feeling. Write the truth. Write like nobody is reading.

“Be bold about your weaknesses and you will change people’s lives. Be honest about who you actually are, and others will begin to be their actual selves around you. Once you cure yourself of the disease, others will come to you, asking if they can just “talk”. People are desperate to talk. Some of the most “perfect” people around you will tell you of some of the greatest struggles going on. Some of the most “perfect” people around you will break down in tears as they tell you how difficult life is for them. Turns out some of the most “perfect” people around us are human beings after all, and are dying to talk to another human being about it. You’ll love them for it. And you’ll love yourself even more.”

“Share your weaknesses. Share your hard moments. Share your real side. It will either scare away every fake person in your life or it will inspire them to finally let go of that mirage called ‘perfection’, which will open the doors to the most important relationships you’ll ever be a part of.”

[perfectquote]

— Silas House

[nightlyquotes]

“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 wonder how much of what weighs me down is not mine to carry.”

“Sometimes you just have to cry over the things and people you’ve lost over the years. For the opportunities you missed and the times you messed up and situations you could’ve handled differently. Cry over words that got lost in translation and over the innocence you lost. Mourn the person you were and the unspeakable things you did in anger. Let the tears flow and the memories hold you. And when you’re all cried out, pick yourself up again and look to the person you are becoming. Embrace them and remember that even if you are not exactly where you want to be right now, you have enough time to get to know yourself and change. Making peace with the ghosts of your past is never wasted time.”

Instead of asking “what’s wrong with these kids”, the real question we should be asking ourselves is, “what happened to these kids”.

The Force is not a power you have... It's the energy between all things, a tension, a balance, that binds the universe together.

That’s when I learned that humanity is about identifying with someone else’s pain. With being there.

Humanity is the ability to hurt for the other person because that’s the only fuel that will stop the injustice.

You must know people as people and you must do what THEY need in the middle of their pain.
