Precious Moments

“i carry a lot in my head, and sometimes it’s not the situation, it’s how long i’ve been holding it in.”

“i don’t explain myself as much anymore, i’ve learned that the right people don’t need long explanations.”

The version of you that survived deserved more kindness than it received.

One day i hope you learn that being respected is more important than being loved.

Grant me a good life, and make it my destiny to walk upon a good path. Bless me to be surrounded by good people, bless me with a good home, and bless me with a good fate in this life and in the hereafter.

The older I get, the less I want to be impressive. I want mornings that don't rush me. Conversations that don't drain me. A life that doesn't ask me to explain myself.
