living louder

Sunsets are proof, that endings can often be beautiful too.

Be the reason someone believes in the goodness of people.

This life that we currently have won’t last forever, so enjoy every single second of it. Have fun during the ups and let the downs help you to grow. Life’s a journey; embrace it.

Life is one big continuous adventure. Live it passionately and enjoy the ride.

Do me a favor, Stand up, walk to wherever the nearest window is, and just look outside. You may not know this, but there’s an entire planets-worth of summers, friends, sunsets, moon, buildings, street lamps, songs, late nights, great films, and night skies waiting for you. Your life is as amazing as you want it to be, but first, you have to let it be that way.

The world is filled with nice people. If you can’t find one, be one.

You’ll need coffee shops and sunsets and road trips. Airplanes and passports and new songs and old songs, but people more than anything else. You will need other people and you will need to be that other person to someone else, a living breathing screaming invitation to believe better things.

The world is filled with nice people. If you can’t find one, be one.

I firmly believe in small gestures: pay for their coffee, hold the door for strangers, over tip, smile or try to be kind even when you don’t feel like it, pay compliments, chase the kid’s runaway ball down the sidewalk and throw it back to him, try to be larger than you are— particularly when it’s difficult. People do notice, people appreciate. I appreciate it when it’s done to (for) me. Small gestures can be an effort, or actually go against our grain (“I’m not a big one for paying compliments…”), but the irony is that almost every time you make them, you feel better about yourself.
