I want you to know that nothing is wrong with you.

\I am forever fighting against perfection.

I too have yearned for a simpler existence, a metaphorical cabin in the woods away from the pressures of modern life.

Love is being acutely aware of how quickly someone could ruin you.

Nobody gets to tell you who the fuck you are, for one.

I remember when I used to abhor routine, when waking up before 9am was a form of torture I only subjected myself to for early flights or hungover stumbles to the kitchen for water.

Want to go on a spontaneous road trip to go stare up at the stars and talk about the Universe? Okay!

You adamantly refuse to be the kind of woman the world wants you to be.

Breakthroughs are always sneaky. They disguise themselves as breakdowns but then, suddenly, you pull through them cleansed and clear.

When you do the work to heal, it can sometimes be a dark tunnel. It can feel like you haven’t done anything at all.

If you chase the opinion of others to validate your life, you will do so forever. It will never end.

The ugly truth is that we are addicted to using the Internet to distract us from ourselves. And it’s making us miserable.

You shouldn’t aim for a life of ease, of comfort, and of perfection, of a constant happiness that never wanes.

First: you are not alone. That is important. Imprint that upon yourself.

Rediscovering a favorite song and binge listening to it while you feel super nostalgic about your past.

We fell in love quickly and without hesitation.

Nobody will admit that love does not fix them, that love cannot save them from their pain.

To feel lost is an indication that you want more out of your life
