you have to be someone worth keeping before you can find someone worth keeping.

We’re supposed to feel. We’re supposed to love. And hate. And hurt. And grieve. And break and be destroyed, and we build ourselves to be destroyed again, that is human. That is humanity, that’s being alive. That’s the point. That’s the entire point. Don’t avoid it. Don’t extinguish it.

"The sexiest thing in the entire world is being really smart. And being thoughtful. And being generous. Everything else is crap, I promise you. It’s just crap that people try to sell to you to make you feel like less. So don’t buy it. Be smart. Be thoughtful. And be generous."

Nobody has ever left me just once. They always come back to see how their absence dulled the vibrance in my eyes before disappearing again.
