The Mountains Are Calling

“To make the right choices in life you have to get in touch with your soul. To do this, you need to experience solitude - which most people are afraid of because in the silence you hear the truth and know the solutions.”

“With the right music, you either forget everything or you remember everything.”

“I’ve always liked quiet people: You never know if they’re dancing in a daydream or if they’re carrying the weight of the world.”

“I get it now. It’s hard to let someone find you in all the dark and twisty places inside, but eventually, you have to hope that they do, because that’s the beginning of everything.”

“You will never be truly happy if you keep holding onto things that make you sad.”

“When it feels scary to jump, that is exactly when you jump, otherwise you end up staying in the same place your whole life.”

“It’s okay to change your yes to a no. Yeses aren’t permanent. They’re something we choose again and again, each and every day. Something we have the right to recall and reconsider as soon as saying yes no longer feels conducive to our wellbeing and happiness. It doesn’t matter whether you said yes to a job, a date, a relationship, sex, a favor to a friend, a social endeavor, or a vow of silence — you don’t ever have to commit to something that forces you to compromise who you are and what feels right; especially if it’s something you agreed to under pressure, intimidation, or force. Changing your yes to a no might make people angry. It might hurt their feelings, cause them to see you as a flake, and result in lost connections. But if saying no means staying true to yourself, honoring your feelings, and making self-care a priority, it’s worth it. You are worth it. Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.”

“Create a life that feels good on the inside. Not one that just looks good on the outside.”

“I keep wondering, how many people do you need to be, before you can become yourself.”

"What if your best, happiest, most honest life looked nothing like you imagined? Would you have the balls to live it?"
