b.r.c

soft reminder: you don’t have to wait for someone to save you. you can save yourself, little by little. you’re stronger than you know.

If it was autumn i would simply open all the windows in my house and light a cinnamon candle in every room and snuggle up with a cup of hot chai tea on the couch with my cat and a thick blanket

you know, life doesn’t have to be competitive. you don’t have to get in the very best university; you don’t have to get the highest paying career there is. you don’t need to compare and compete with everyone else in the world. you need to do what’s right for you. you need to relax, take a breath, and say ‘what do i want, for myself, to live as i want to’. and, if that involves high ambitions, then that’s fine. because you chose those ambitions on what you desire as an individual, and not on what is expected in order to succeed. let’s be ourselves this year.

This is beautiful

choose kindness even when others have not been kind to you
