The greatest thing in the world is to know how to belong to oneself.

Michel de Montaigne, Essais (via philosophybits)

And kid, you’ve got to love yourself. You’ve got wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. You’ve got to sit next to the man at the train station who’s reading your favorite book and start a conversation. You’ve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. Then you’ve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery store. You’ve got to stop taking everything so goddam personally. You are not the moon kissing the black sky. You’ve got to compliment someones crooked brows at an art fair and tell them that their eyes remind you of green swimming pools in mid July. You’ve got to stop letting yourself get upset about things that won’t matter in two years. Sleep in on Saturday mornings and wake yourself up early on Sunday. You’ve got to stop worrying about what you’re going to tell her when she finds out. You’ve got to stop over thinking why he stopped caring about you over six months ago. You’ve got to stop asking everyone for their opinions. Fuck it. Love yourself, kiddo. You’ve got to love yourself.

I am only responsible for my own heart, you offered yours up for the smashing my darling. Only a fool would give out such a vital organ.

I bumped into [Harry] in The Bowery Hotel. He’s been through a rough time recently. God bless him, he was really happy to see me. The funniest thing was we didn’t really talk business. Dunkirk was out and all this was happening, and we just gave each other a big hug. We didn’t say much but you could tell we were really happy to see each other. It was like touching home base.

You will fall in love with your friends. Deep, passionate love. You will create a second family with them, a kind of tribe that makes you feel less vulnerable. Sometimes our families can’t love us all the time. Sometimes we’re born into families who don’t know how to love us properly. They do as much as they can but the rest is up to our friends. They can love you all the time, without judgement. At least the good ones can.

What a terrible thing it is to wound someone you really care for and to do it so unconsciously.

Sites I visit when I need a mental break

These are what I use when I need a break at work or from studying. I like them because they usually take just enough time for me to enjoy without feeling super guilty.

Commaful: stories are super short and perfect for quick breaks. they have everything from fanfiction to poetry. try to stick to just one tho otherwise you'll get sucked in Bouncy Balls: Bounce balls. The most mindless thing ever. just bouncy, bouncy, bouncy Mental Floss: learn epic stuff. you'll learn everything from pop culture to tech to history and more!! short and fun Don't Even Reply: I started reading this and couldn't stop laughing at work...it's some dude trolling people on craigslist. i can't....stop....laughing.... This Is My Website Now: Fun little games, takes just a few minutes but great for a break Oddee: REALLY REALLY weird stories Pixel Thoughts: this is more when you have a tough day or a rough time. a short little meditation fixes everything right up! Silk: Create dreamy works of art with your mouse. Have fun subconsciously drawing genitalia. Akinator, The Web Genius: This magical genie thing that is stuck in your computer and can read minds. It was 2/3 for me. not bad!
