“Mom says you should never ask for advice you aren’t willing to take. I wasn’t sure I agreed. Having an unbiased pair of eyes point out a sensible solution was helpful. But the sensible thing and the right thing weren’t always the same choice, and no one but you could truly understand the difference.”

Do you ever just listen to an old favorite song really loud in your headphones while staring at a skyline and fall in love with the world and your life and the person you’ve become even if things aren’t actually going well for you at that particular moment? Because it’s surreal and it’s empowering and I think it’s bliss.

“hope is a dream that never sleeps for when it sleeps, the world will die. the light we radiate from our hearts will fade as darkness suffocates those resigned to a monochromatic life, slowly blackening. so when your heart is shattered and life only seems to ignore your pleads for chance, hold onto the blossom of hope with your small hands for it will slowly fill your life with colour again.”
