Your effort won't betray you.

have you considered you should all be insanely proud of yourselves because this world can be a cruel, cruel place, but you’re still here and that means everything to the people who love you? have you considered that each day you get up and fight even when it feels impossible, and for that you’re incredibly strong? have you considered that i love you and i’m proud of you

hug me until i smell like you

friends that understand your anti-social phases and don’t take it personally are important.

So grateful for them

hey. don’t cry. crush four cloves of garlic into a pot with a dollop of olive oil and stir until golden then add one can of crushed tomatoes a bit of balsamic vinegar half a tablespoon of brown sugar half a cup of grated parmesan cheese and stir for a few minutes adding a handful of fresh spinach until wilted and mix in pasta of your choice ok?

at times when hope is too big of a thing to have, curiosity (even clinical or small) is a very good placeholder
