Me: *tells people its okay to let it out*

Me: *bottles up all my emotions and is essentially dead inside*

You ruin your life by desensitizing yourself. We are all afraid to say too much, to feel too deeply, to let people know what they mean to us. Caring is not synonymous with crazy. Expressing to someone how special they are to you will make you vulnerable. There is no denying that. However, that is nothing to be ashamed of. There is something breathtakingly beautiful in the moments of smaller magic that occur when you strip down and are honest with those who are important to you. Let that girl know that she inspires you. Tell your mother you love her in front of your friends. Express, express, express. Open yourself up, do not harden yourself to the world, and be bold in who, and how you love. There is courage in that.

My Goodbye to Highschool

Bought myself a $500 prom dress because why the fuck not and I fucking deserve to look like a damn princess getting out of my grandfathers 1932 HotRod, thank you very much.

wahahahahahahahohwah

all for someone who makes you smile, even though you’re stuck in rush hour; fall for someone who will share a pizza with you, but one with no onions because they know you don’t like onions; fall for someone who loves your 3am thoughts just as much as they love your noon thoughts; fall for someone who makes you feel comfortable; fall for someone who helps you tie your tie the fourth time because you messed up the first three; fall for someone who sings with you in the car…or puts up with your singing in the car; fall for someone who will tie dye t-shirts with you and go to the drive-in; fall for someone who kisses you in the rain and when you wake up and before you go to bed or leave for work and on the forehead and nose and cheeks and when you’re angry or sad; fall for someone who, no matter what, you will always look at them and smile; fall for someone who loves you for you and, despite all your kinks and flaws and imperfections, still thinks you’re beautiful

wordsnquotes

We are all creators. We breathe. To speak is to form breath and to make manifest sound into the world. As I write I create myself again and again. Re‐Create. And breathe. And I see that I am not one voice, but many: all colors, all sounds, all fears, all loves.

Good books tell the truth, even when they’re about things that never have been and never will be. They’re truthful in a different way.

Stanisław Lem (via wordsnquotes)

It is a basic human need that everyone wants to live a happy life. For this, one has to experience real happiness. The so-called happiness that one experiences by having money, power, and indulging in sensual pleasures is not real happiness. It is very fragile, unstable and fleeting. For real happiness, for lasting stable happiness, one has to make a journey deep within oneself and get rid of all the unhappiness stored in the deeper levels of the mind. As long as there is misery at the depth of the mind all attempts to feel happy at the surface level of the mind prove futile.
