that awesome moment when you finished reading a really good book and you see it at a store then you cunningly smile at it as if you had an affair with it.
#then you hover around it for a while #maybe stroke it #read the blurb
The horrifying thing is that this is true.
"If you are insecure, guess what? The rest of the world is, too. Do not overestimate the competition and underestimate yourself. You are better than you think."
Good News of 2017
Cause we all really need to see the good that came from this shitty year.
"You don’t get to choose if you get hurt in this world…but you do have some say in who hurts you. I like my choices."
(via books-n-quotes)
"okay, so, maybe, just maybe, you are not the mythical creature that I made you to be.
maybe you are just a person and we weren’t destined to meet.
nothing cosmic about the way you showed up a year after I fell in love with a pretty boy at a party.
nothing special about the way you kept secrets and played your cards right.
maybe, you are just a person who got a little lonely.
and maybe, you are just a person, who needed to save something.
so, maybe, none of this had anything to do with me.
maybe that is why you seem so surprised, when I ask you for a reason.
you just didn’t know that you were supposed to have one."

1. Time does not heal. Time makes you forget and does a good job of making memories blurry. Take healing into your own hands - don’t wait for someone else to do it.
2. Do not waste your I love you’s. The more you flaunt the word around to people you’ve just met and early lovers, the less it will mean when love really hits.
3. Create a list of things you want to do in life. I’m not talking about going to see the northern lights or visiting Hawaii. The little things that can be easy to accomplish such as: trying caviar, painting your room, and trying that new sushi place. Checking off the little things in life is the best self-esteem boost.
4. Always take the high road. If you’re working with rude people or someone has done wrong to you, do not stoop to their level. What’s goes around will come back around. Trust me.
5. Offer to help. People appreciate someone that genuinely wants to give a helping hand whether it’s setting the table or carrying heavy boxes.
6. Stop being hard on yourself. Who cares if you did not get an A on that test? Does it matter if you embarrassed yourself at lunch the other day? Move on. We’re only human.
7. Read more.
8. Be open minded. People who can not see past their own opinions do not go anywhere in life.
9. Accept your flaws.
10. Invest in yourself. Buy yourself that new art set, or new shoes, or order some good take out. The little things in life are often over looked, but they add up in the best ways.
