You are so much more

“It is both a burden and a blessing, to feel everything as deeply as I do.”

She changed this year. She decided she didn’t want to be this shy person anymore because she always felt left out. She decided to do one thing a day that scared her. She decided to be more open-minded and to stop judging everyone without knowing their reasons. She decided to stop holding herself back and to stop pretending she’s somebody she isn’t just to impress someone. She decided to stop worrying so much about small things that won’t matter in a few months. These decisions made her happier than she’s ever been in her life. She feels carefree, bold and like she’s living life at the fullest.

Be sad but get up. You don’t have to shower. You can put on the same clothes you wore yesterday. Nobody will care. The sky is blue, wildflowers are blooming by the side of the road. Strangers have stories to tell. Go for a walk, go for a drive, go to a greenhouse, a bookstore, a movie theater. You can stay in bed but nothing is going to happen there. Sometimes you’ve really just got to get the fuck up.

You remember too much, my mother said to me recently. Why hold onto all that? And I said, Where can I put it down?

I feel very small. I don’t understand. I have so much courage, fire, energy, for many things, yet I get so hurt, so wounded by small things.

Anaïs Nin, from Nearer the Moon: The Previously Unpublished Unexpurgated Diary, 1937-1939 (via luthienne)

At this age you gotta accept that if you want to be with someone, you both still got growing up to do. You either grow together or outgrow each other.

note to self: you are an intelligent woman. forgive yourself for all the times you were stupid and naive. you are a woman of heart. forgive yourself for the times you were soft when you should have been hard.

Friendly reminder that you don’t have to wait until the weekends to live and enjoy your life. Go to your favorite coffee shop after school, call your friend, bake cookies on a Wednesday afternoon, dance around in your underwear. Your life is yours to live and you shouldn’t put it on hold because of work or school.

I need solitude. I need space. I need air. I need the empty fields round me; and my legs pounding along roads; and sleep; and animal existence.

If you can love the wrong one so much, just imagine how much you can love the right one.
