Why We Need Time Alone

1. It allows us to hear, and really listen to, our heart.

2. It helps us to feel – instead of stuffing our emotions.

3. It helps us to decide who we really want to be.

4. It allows us to step back from the pressure to fit in.

5. It frees us from the need to please, or seek others’ approval.

6. It helps us to establish more appropriate boundaries.

7. It allows us to recharge our batteries.

“I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close.”

— Pablo Neruda, 100 Love Sonnets (via books-n-quotes)

small things to stay alive for

getting to see yourself grow over time

finding new music

late night drives with the person you love

warm cups of tea

the colors of a sunset

new movies releasing

seeing someone blow out birthday candles

hearing someone laugh

inside jokes 

making playlists 

giving people gifts

lazy days where you watch your favorite movies

baking cupcakes and frosting them

your dog waiting for you at the door

small cafes

aquarium touch pools

seeing someone’s face light up

“So please ask yourself: What would I do if I weren’t afraid? And then go do it.”
