SUNNY DAYS

I tell people all the time that they should keep a journal, even if it’s just, ‘I had a terrible day today and I don’t want to talk about it, love Stevie,’ or 'I dreamt last night…’ Even if it’s just three sentences because at the end of five or six days, you would have created a habit and you will find that over a month that you have a whole story growing. Whether it’s just for your own memories, so you can go back at any age, or if you are a writer or a singer, or some part of the creative business. You can be creative, anyone can be creative if they want to, you just have to want to.

I exist too much, I feel too much, think too much. Reality is crushing the life out of me.

Read the book that’s best for you. If you’re living with depression, read a novel about depression. If you’re heartbroken, read a novel about unrequited love. If you’re feeling suicidal or hopeless, read a depressing poetry collection, and in a weird way, it’ll give you some hope. And that’s what literature is all about, understanding and knowing that your pain, your suffering is universal.

And her I love you’s sounds a hell of a lot like you can always come home.

I saw you again after a whole year apart and remembered why my heart used to skip a beat when I heard your name.

Understand me. I’m not like an ordinary world. I have my madness, I live in another dimension and I do not have time for things that have no soul.

Everything I’ve ever let go of has claw marks on it.

When thinking about life, remember this: no amount of guilt can change the past, and no amount of anxiety can change the future.
