“Maybe some people just aren’t meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some people are just passing through. It’s like some people just come through our lives to bring us something: a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn. And that’s why they’re here. You’ll have that gift forever.”

“I am all in a sea of wonders. I doubt; I fear; I think strange things which I dare not confess to my own soul.”

“Then as a child, you wasted so many wishes for that person who did not come back anyway. You grew up being judged because you tend to mess up. People did not understand that you were only trying to fill that deep-seated void in your being.. They never did. Then as you grew older, people kept telling you to forgive and forget - but how are you supposed to let go of the things that didn’t exist in the first place? When all you got is an empty soul that refuses to heal..”

“Happiness seems so distant but I’ll always be persistent in finding a spark to illuminate the darkness. Better days await everyone, but you can’t sit and wait. No matter how much work is required, no matter how tired I get, it’ll be worth every second of trying.”

“And somedays I miss everyone - who has ever left, all at once”

“Forgive me if I don’t talk much at times. It’s loud enough in my head.”

“seeing your’re bestfreind turn into something you wish you hadn’t”

To stand up straight with your shoulders back is to accept the terrible responsibility of life, with eyes wide open. It means deciding to voluntarily transform the chaos of potential into the realities of habitable order. It means adopting the burden of self-conscious vulnerability, and accepting the end of the unconscious paradise of childhood, where finitude and mortality are only dimly comprehended. It means willingly undertaking the sacrifices necessary to generate a productive and meaningful reality.

“Some days healing is for laughter, playfulness, and friends. Some days healing is for silence, rest and solitude. Some days healing is for accepting that getting better doesn’t always look the same, and that’s okay.”
