“Paradoxically, the ability to be alone is the condition for the ability to love.”

One night I will say to it: Heart, be still, and it will.

One night I will say to it: Heart, be still, and it will.

Be gentle with that part of you that says you should always be perfect and flawless in doing what you love and accept that it’s okay to make small mistakes despite something being your passion because that’s how you learn. Take risks and know that accepting your imperfections is how you grow instead of always pushing them aside and never allowing yourself to see how your failures don’t define in you. It’s the success that comes from your relentless trying that does. You are never fixed. You are never frozen. You are always a work in progress.

The greatest kind of love is the one that leaves you feeling contented. It reminds you that you will always be enough to be the reason for their smile. Just by existing, you are bringing hope and light to change the world for a person who inspires you to be better by making you realize that everything you need is within you, and that’s the kind of love that heals. The kind of love that asks nothing else from you than for you to be who you are because you are already whole to begin with.

“don’t spend too long swimming in the idea that it’ll never go back to the way it was, when it’s time to accept that this is the way that it’s meant to be. people grow closer and apart, situations change and unfold, love evolves and connection changes, regret is easy to drown in.”

There’s a brief moment when you first wake up where you have no memories, a blissful blank slate, a happy emptiness, but it doesn’t last long and you remember exactly where you are and what you are trying to forget.

So, if you are too tired to speak, sit next to me for I, too, am fluent in silence.
