take this moment to really appreciate how far I’ve come. Sometimes you can get so caught up in things and expecting yourself to always be/do better that you forget your starting point. I hope you can take this moment to reflect and be proud of yourself, it hasn’t been easy but you’ve come this far. I’m proud of us both for that.

The sheer romanticism of being unknown, of coming into people’s lives seemingly out of nowhere and leaving the exact same way, of saying or doing something with someone that you know you will never see or hear from again and then helping someone expecting nothing in return, of only existing in vague memories people have as that person that did that or said this.

meet me by the riverbanks where we were once children let us go back to the time of innocent wonder the type that only naïve souls can conjure where we can climb upon the trees green grass below our feet warm, summer wind between our hair living in the present
