And I didn't understand that until you.

There are thousands of copies of the average book, and if you ever ruined yours you could buy another for $3 off ThriftBooks or something. Unless you are specifically working with rare first edition printings, it’s fine to just treat a book like something that you own. Take it with you everywhere and if you lose or forget it just shrug because it’s really, truly, not a big deal. Love books hard, they are just bundles of paper and the story that you adore is always safe even if you treat your paperback like a doorstop. It’s fine.

now think about how many times that’s likely happened to you but no one voiced it. just like you have secretly admired others, others have admired you. someone has been silently overwhelmed with the uniqueness of your features or the smoothness of your voice. even though you might not always be told how beautiful you are, remember this. and maybe even tell someone the next fleeting compliment you have, because people aren’t reminded often enough just how beautiful they are
