“I gave you things I wasn’t sure I even had.”

— Miranda July

“I want to talk about what happened without mentioning how much it hurt. There has to be a way. To care for the wounds without reopening them. To name the pain without inviting it back into me.”

— Lora Mathis, If There’s A Way Out I’ll Take It

“She’s passionate in a doomed way; passionate about these tiny moments of routine she’s still managing to enjoy. Passionate about her morning coffee or the way she climbs the stairs.Yet one can clearly see that the light’s been taken out of her and she doesn’t want to get back to it. She can’t allow herself that love or openness because there’s too much pain.”

— Juliette Binoche, on her role in Krzysztof Kieslowski’s Bleu: Trois Couleurs.

That guy who puts more pieces of your favourite food on your plate as you eat out with all your friends and the one who strokes your hand with his thumb as you hold hands and the one who sees you and really sees is not somebody you are going to find on a dating app. It's not going to happen.

You can find funny boys on there. Pretty boys. Bad boys. Silly boys. But not that kind. So then you have to decide if that's what you want to do with whatever hope and trust you have remaining for love. Do you want to spend it on them? Do you want to continue to meet guys who make you believe a little less and a little less and a little less in the possibility of having something wholesome, and healthy, and lasting with a man?

So, what are you to do, then?

What am I do do, then?

Do you know what makes someone so beautiful, that the moment you're in their presence you could feel their aura, the calm they vibe out, the tranquility on their faces, total peace surrounding their energy field, words dropping like a healing, making them so soulfully divine? Learn closer and you'll find out that they all have one thing in common. They've experienced pain to deep levels and have not only endured it but also came out of it so beautifully that it moulded them to the person they're today. By the hurt they received, they too could have become monsters, but they chose not to, instead became a symbol of hope, forgiveness and kindness. They turned their own bitterness into something sweet, they transformed their own venom into something so powerfully healing that alchemy has fully taken its effect. With shattered pieces of their heart, they made something beautiful and meaningful out of all those broken parts. World has taught them what cruelty is, and they're breaking the chain, to show how delivering and liberating it is, to be kind...
