We let our minds talk us out of our own contentment with petty complaints and minor issues that we irrationally expound upon.

Maybe there are different roads we can choose to take, but the destinations will always be the same.

Whether or not you “should” be upset over one thing or another.

Never mustering up the courage to do what it is they know is right in their hearts.

“True love cannot be found where it doesn’t exist, nor can it be hidden where it truly does.”

So what we have to learn to do is to accept the love we aren’t given. To realize that although we put someone on a pedestal, that does not mean that their judgment determines us.

Whether or not you love someone.

When that little voice rears it’s ugly head and tells you at the most mundane moment: but you don’t really love them.

We have a tendency to exacerbate relationships by the way in which we categorize them as good bad or ugly, and yet, for some reason, no matter which way we go, we always want to hold on for just a little bit longer.

City lights on the street after it just rained.

Loving someone more than you love yourself.

Chase drinks and dreams, not people.

Realizing that you deserve more than somebody has to offer is unbelievably empowering.

Running from the sadness is what will exhaust you, not feeling it.

If you have to question it that much.

7. It is a mistake to think that hell is drifting and heaven is steering. We usually don’t know where we want to go anyway.

3. Identifying as a feminist does not mean that you hate men.

To have direction and vision in your life is what will propel you forward, it is what you find when you’ve found yourself.
