Receiving Handwritten Letters From Your Beloved? In This Economy? Sign Me The Fuck Up

the fact that I have to be in the “right headspace” to do even the simplest tasks. absolutely humiliating

My little revolution.

I believe this world needs more compassion. And why not start right here? With this next thought. With this next feeling. 

Can I just let it be exactly as it is?

Nothing I’ve read has changed me more than “you do people a favor by accepting their help” like I repeat this constantly to so many people because it’s true!!! People like to feel useful, they like to feel kind, they like to feel like they have an ability to impact people’s lives so just let them!! Not everything is a thing to be owed back — accept people’s kindness without making a competition out of it

make the OC with acne!! make the OC with that one weird scar you’re self conscious about!! make the OC with your lopsided ears, your crooked jaw, your uneven nose, your keratosis pilaris, your stretchmarks and your imperfections. make the OC you’re scared to make because it’s ‘self indulgent’ or ‘romanticizing your own body’.

make the OC. give yourself that love.

you are the only person who has always been there for you. You are the only person who has woken up with you everyday of your life and gone to bed with you every night on the hardest nights in your life-everytime your were in your bed crying over something,you thought your world was ending you are the only person that has been there every second of everyday for your entire life. Your job -not because you're special but because it's your job -to look after YOURSELF.

when is it my turn to get the feminine urge to study for three hours straight

“Be alone. Eat alone, take yourself on dates, sleep alone. In the midst of this you will learn about yourself. You will grow, you will learn what inspires you. You will cultivate your own dreams, your own beliefs, your own stunning clarity. And when you do meet the right person who makes your cells dance, you will be sure of it because you are sure of yourself.”

— Bianca Sparacino

We are captives of what we love, what we desire, and what we are.
