The Courage To Be

— John Irving (via onlinecounsellingcollege)

Perfection

Seems like a legit form of measurement

It’s really nice to see black celebs and athletes actually show their support for the community, rather than sparing a few words about it.

I built you to be curious, to look at this empty world, and read meaning into it. All this time, you’ve been a flower growing in the darkness.

But how do you know they’re perfect matches? I mean, what if all it’s actually doing is gradually wearing us down, putting us in one relationship after another for random durations in a random sequence? Each time you get a little bit more pliable, a little bit more broken, until eventually it coughs up the final offering and says that’s the one. And by that point you are so defeated and so exhausted that you just accept it, you settle. And then you have to live the rest of your life convincing yourself you didn’t.
