feelings and stuff

I like you to be exactly the way that you are, because in all my experience, I have never known anyone like you.

Not until we are lost do we begin to understand ourselves.

I want you to remember who you are, despite the bad things that are happening to you. Because those bad things aren’t you. They are just things that happen to you. You need to accept that who you are and the things that happen you, are not one and the same.

Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life - and travel - leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks - on your body or on your heart - are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.

We’re as likely to hurt the universe as we are to help it, and we’re not likely to do either.
