Thoughts

An insight to the mind of a person just like you

My favourite part of showing my friends old musicals is the moment a song starts and they realise they actually know the song but had no idea it was from this movie and their faces are shocked and light up and then start singing along and suddenly they have a new love for the movie.

One of my new favourite things is YouTube trying to guess the subtitles for videos

I search for myself in every song I hear but no one can force the adrenaline of realising a song was written just for you

Whoever says that emotional pain is different to physical pain has never felt the churning ache in the pit of their stomach when they're anxious beyond capacity. Emotional pain becomes physical when the pain is so strong that it overflows into the rest of your body. Whoever says physical pain is worse than emotional pain is lucky they've never feot that kind of emotional pain before

How do you tell someone that you love them but you aren't in love with them?

There's a difference between butterflies and anxiety. Butterflies you feel in your stomach and it's kind of a jiggly feeling. Sometimes it makes you feel a little sick and unsettled but it's a bearable feeling. But anxiety you feel in your chest, like a hand grabbing your heart and trying to pull it down. Your chest feels heavy like there's a brick sitting on it and you just feel like curling up and hope it goes away. They're both natural and both somewhat normal, but the difference is that butterflies are healthy. They let you know that you're a little nervous but they don't press into you too much. Anxiety is the opposite. It's fear and worry accumulating and expanding and pressing into you so much that you begin to question and wonder and overthink. Anxiety gets into your brain and makes you think things you know aren't right. Both are trying to tell you something, but only one is telling the truth. Learn the difference between them

Some of the most beautiful sights in the world:

- An open sky so full of stars that you couldn't even begin to count them

- Silhouettes against a deep orange sunset

- City lights from above

- A straight stretch of road as far as the eye can see

- Soft mist over a field at sunrise

- A wide open space illuminated by nothing but moonlight

And you kmow what the best part of these is? You don't have to travel half way across the world to see them. You could see them as you're driving home from work or when you wake up randomly in the middle of the night. You could see them when walking to your car or stuck in traffic. Maybe all you need to do is drive out of the city. These sights are so simple but they appear all around us and we don't even notice them

One thing I hate about all my friends being in relationships and me being single is that I have no one to go cool places or do cool things with. I want to go to the theatre or go on a river cruise or go to a fancy restaurant but those things are virtually pointless if you have no one to share the memoried with. All my friends in relationships would rather do these things with their significant others which is fair and understandable but I feel like I'm missing out on memories. I feel left behind

Do you ever have withdrawal from people? Like you can spend a whole weekend with someone and still crave their presence when they leave. You can be absolutely exhausted but you still wish you could be them. It's both the best and the worst feeling in the world

[prideandprejudiceandme]

I think the worst friendship breakups are the ones that aren't mutual. The thought that someone you've known and cared about since middle school, someone who you've taken countless selfies with and dared each other to do the stupudist things, someone who you've shared dozens of secrets with and has stood up for you when the bullies were too big, someone who has caught your tears and made you laugh when you didn't think you could, has so much hate for you that they can't stand to be the same room as you. That is the worst feeling because years of shared history is treasured by onr person and regretted by another.

Some people carry burdens the weight of a feather and act as if it's the weight of the world while others actually do carry the world but act as if it is a feather. It goes both ways

I can't wait for the day I look back and wonder why I ever cried myself to sleep at night

Words we should all live by

[prideandprejudiceandme]

Here's the thing about being too sensitive: you feel the need to have closure. If someone hurts you, you expect an apology. You want to know that everyone around you has the best intentions and you struggle to move on until they have said that they are sorry and didn't mean it. But that's the problem: not everyone is sorry. Not everyone you meet has your feelings in mind. Even people who truely care about you are capable of hurting you because they have a different mind and idea of what is right and wrong to say. You can't take everything every says to heart and dwell on those things until an apology is made. The fact is that sometimes apologies are never made, and sometimes they just aren't necessary. No one can live their life waiting for people to apologise for everything they do because they will likely be waiting forever. A huge part of forgiveness is learning to forgive and move on even if the person isn't sorry. Sometimes, if you truely care about the person who hurt you, you will have to move on without telling them you are hurt and without them ever saying sorry. Doing this doesn't mean you are letting people walk all over you, it means you can more about the friendship than you care about what was said. If they are truely your friend, you should be able to see that they care about you and would never intentionally hurt you, therefore an apology shouldn't be necessary

Forget seeing myself through someone else's eyes, I want to see someone else through their eyes. I want to know what it's like to see my significant other the way they see themselves. I want know how differently I see my friend to how my friend sees themselves. I think if we truely knew how others saw themselves we might be able to love them better

One of the most annoying things in the world for me is when you're hanging out with a group of friends and there's a couple who just go off by themselves and don't interact with the rest of the group. Like I get that you're a couple but you see each other legit every day. Could you not just separate or at least join the group for a mere two hours? Can you not afford to spend more than a few seconds apart? Is it really that hard? To top it all off, the worst part is when they text you later an say "sorry we didn't get to spend any time together last night. I really wished I had have seen more of you". Just don't give me that. If you had wanted to spend time with me then you would have but you chose otherwise. If you want to spend all your time with your significant other then that's fine with me, just don't pretend to want to hang out with others as well cause we aren't that dumb and we have better things to do with out time than to wait for you to have time for us
