for lovers with thicker skin than mine

“Make sure you don’t start seeing yourself through the eyes of those who don’t value you. Know your worth even if they don’t.”

“You don’t find your worth in someone. You find your worth within yourself and then find someone who’s worthy of you. Remember that.”

“To love is to recognize yourself in another.”

“You gotta show love even when they don’t - or you become one of them.”

“I am learning to love the sound of my feet walking away from things that aren’t meant for me.”

“It’s both a blessing and a curse to feel everything so very deeply.”

“You don’t always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, let go, and see what happens.”

“To have someone understand your mind is a different kind of intimacy.”
