It’s taken me some time to understand this, but feelings were made to be felt in full. Hearts were made to break so they could resurrect stronger from the wreckage.

Depression is a dark thing lurking inside your brain, slowly shutting every single light out till you have nothing but the abyss.

He was a storm. That’s the best way to describe him. He came into your life with the gale force passion, your whole heart was his from the moment you two decided this was it.

Anger is a valid, justified, human emotion and just needs a healthy release.

Being a decent human being is the rent you should be paying to exist in this world. Being a kind human being is putting good things back in the world in hopes of making it better for the children who are just now growing up in it.

Spend more time building friendships instead of looking for love.

I want you to know this. YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY.

In 2018, I hope you learn how to be alone. Better yet, I hope you learn to love being alone. There is a big difference between alone and lonely, and I hope you find that being alone is a brilliant opportunity to grow and do things that you found you could never do in a relationship. 

If you are suffering right now and struggling to find the light at the end of the tunnel, I promise you, you have saved yourself every time before and you WILL survive this.

I tried to learn how to live with it, but pain makes a terrible bedfellow. It keeps you up at night, never allowing you to sleep. Eventually, it colours all of your life in shades so dark that you forget how to breathe.

So, love dangerously. Throw all your hang ups out of the window. Let them see your flaws without being hyper anxious about letting them see the real you. Allow love to happen to you.

Enough almost relationships. Enough jobs that just get you by. Enough putting off chasing your dreams. All of that ends this year because next year is the year you find your bliss.
