when you look back now, was it special?

or was it nothing but an anecdote that you can tell now and then?

oh to love and be loved in return, just once in this lifetime

[saintlysinnerss]

three years later, at the ripe age of 23 i’ve finally fallen in love and am being loved in return. at times, i genuinely thought this would never happen. not sure i‘ve ever been this happy to have been wrong

How many times can the same thing break your heart?

As long as you love it.

I think the hot new trends for this summer should be reading comprehension and critical thinking skills

[silverystardustt]

read & write like it’s air you need to live.

the internet is but the digital wind carrying your words and thoughts to others. it doesn’t matter that 99% won’t read it, what matters is that 1% that do
