They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: Someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.

He could say something as unassuming as “I’m going to turn off the light in the kitchen if nobody minds,” but I could sense the passive aggressiveness in his tone and shoot back something equally negative. Like any two persons whose characters were like carbon copies, we fought constantly, and I suspect my mother’s genes had no place in me due to the strength of my father’s. But looking at him, I couldn’t help loving him more. The way his salt and pepper beard would move while he chewed his cheese and crackers. His stoop and walk that somehow seemed owl-y to me. His wrinkly fingers and the way his round pale green eyes exactly like my own would peer over his glasses. But especially the when he’s in the kitchen at three o’clock brewing his espresso talking in that gruff sleepy voice about what a great nap he just had.

my father told me once to never date anyone who talks smoothly around you from the start because if someone likes you they should be a little nervous and honestly i think that’s some of the best advice anyone has ever given me

i told my dad about this text post and he got so excited he teared up and then he said he felt like he just adopted forty thousand new children to share his wisdom with and he hopes all of you meet kind, sweet people he would be proud of

Hindsight

Loving the wrong person can interrupt your entire life. Please be aware of who you invest your time, energy and soul into, because before you know it, your dreams and aspirations have taken a back seat and you’ve become fixated on fixing them. Don’t put your life on pause for anybody. People rarely change anyway and plus that is not your responsibility. Ignore the guilt trips and invest in something with a better return, you. Plus, people who have your best interest at heart will never allow you to lose focus/ let opportunities slip through your fingers. Stay woke and be careful of energy vampires. There are people out there who purposely seek those with pure souls and plot to drain them of everything they have. Emotional labour is the most unrewarding time-consuming unpaid occupation known to man. Be careful and remember if the positive energy isn’t reciprocal, fucking leave. This is a regret you don’t want to be burdened with.
