“If it cost you your peace, it’s too expensive.”

There are some things that can only be found inside yourself, not in other people. Make sure you’re searching the right places.

You know what the difference is between a friend and someone you can trust? When you talk to them, are they always like, ‘I’m good’, ‘I’m doing great’, ‘Everything’s fine’ ? A real friend shares their struggles with you. Their vulnerabilities. They don’t hide behind a facade of perfection. Someone you can truly trust is someone who has insecurities or a shit day and picks up the phone to tell you about it.

If you’re struggling and your people are just sitting there watching you struggle… They’re not your people.

It ends or it doesn’t. That’s what you say. That’s how you get through it. The tunnel, the night, the pain, the love. It ends or it doesn’t. If the sun never comes up, you find a way to live without it. If they don’t come back, you sleep in the middle of the bed, learn how to make enough coffee for yourself alone. Adapt. Adjust. It ends or it doesn’t. It ends or it doesn’t. We do not perish.

what i like about her is that she blooms whether you water her or not. whether you give her light or not. she exists without your existence.
