For that moment when you’re 98.5% sure you’re about to be dumped, and 100% sure you don’t want to cry.

When you’re full of love you’ll never lose to someone full of anger and hate. They might make you stumble, but your love will help you get right back up, while their emotions — like a fire — will eventually burn out.

Looking at the time will only stress you out and depress you. You’ll be all, “I have to go to work in like 4 hours.WTF,” which is never a comforting thought.

Depression is a seemingly never-ending struggle with one’s own existence, and is not something that can be solved with true love’s kiss or even the love of a best friend.

20. Feeding into online trolls.

It’s okay to NOT tweet every five minutes. I promise we won’t forget about you.

Sure, not meeting our original goals can feel a lot like failure, but to accept this discredits all of the work and growth we experienced in the process.

With one less person to buy presents for on holidays and birthdays, just think of the possibilities!

18. If you are intimidated by the artists who came before you, understand you too have a place, right next to them.

11. You give up on something because it requires you to make a phone call.

“We can do whatever you want. Just as long as you know that when we leave this room, and re-enter the world, we’re gonna do it together. And I’m not going anywhere.”

6. You try to explain away your racially controversial statements by letting folks know that you have a friend in the group you commented on. Because, of course we can’t forget about the Racist-Exemption Card that’s given to people when they befriend others of a different race!

I’m no longer afraid of people calling me out for my flaws. I know that I’m a complex, three-dimensional human being no matter what anyone says. My flaws are part of me, but they do not define me. I love them because I love myself.

My dad accidentally said “I take you Helen Keller…” instead of “Helen” when he married my mom. He was nervous and it just popped out.

I intentionally try a little less than I could, to save myself the embarrassment of failure by trying my best.

Why don’t my dogs react like this (or at all) when I bark at them?
