I would like a moment to thank the people who reblog post like this so that it eventually shows on my dash.

“Promise yourself to be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. Look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. Think only of the best, work only for the best, and expect only the best. Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.”

You are allowed to be both a masterpiece and a work in progress, simultaneously.

very often, in life, we feel like we gave our everything to someone or something and in return, got nothing. we feel like all the blood, sweat and tears went in vain. but you know how it is when you plant a seed. for days you might not see any evidence of life or development but there is so much growth going on inside that seed, below the surface. and when it is ready, the little seed sprouts, breaking the earth above it. you are growing too. you’re becoming so strong that eventually you’ll break whatever tries to bury you. believe that you’ll bloom and you will. -SM

I remember. I remember the first time a like turned into a crush, and when love turned to dust. When our hands began to feel unfamiliar, and when my bed became empty. I remember when warmth turned cold. When our home was no longer home.

Some days it takes a lot of courage to be yourself.

Every shattered heart that’s been gilded back together leaves a little less luminescence whenever it shines again
