and for the lady, perhaps a man who will worship and devote himself to you for all eternity?

“The love of my life wouldn’t do that” is such a powerful perspective to maintain

crossfaded somewhere between "there has to be more to life than this" and "every mundane thing is beautiful when you're with people you love"

You've got to be more afraid of abandoning yourself than disappointing other people.

Life seems to be moving fast because you live a monotonous reality. You need to escape the trap of the mindless routine before it consumes you. The last thing you want is to blink and realize you’ve lived a good chunk of your life in ways that blended all days together with a complete loss of time. Your life needs excitement, activities, quests, challenges, novelty on a daily basis. Life is not happening in your bedroom, head, or you phone. It is happening outside. Go live it, now.

Labels are meant to help you make sense of yourself. They are not for other people to dictate, and they are not set in stone. You are allowed to shed old labels, and to take new ones when it feels appropriate, without shame. You are, have been, and will always be 100% real and 100% valid. You are you, and you are wonderful.
