My roman empire is the people who pay attention. The people who wait for you while you tie your shoes while others have walked away. "This made me think of you" noticing things you never even noticed about yourself.
There is so much more—
more to live for,
more love to be felt,
more people to meet,
and more beautiful
moments to be captured.
The journey ahead is filled
with endless possibilities.
the fact that the smallest amount of reassurance can mean so much. Random messages like: "i got you" "what'd i do without you" "see you later?" or "I'm not going anywhere" are a relief on so many levels..
"you guys fell for each other pretty quick huh?" It was never a crush. I never had butterflies. I just met him and instantly felt like i had just met my best friend for life. It went from 0 to 100 in a second.
you know what the most beautiful thing in the world is? girls being happy. have you ever seen a girl just being happy? iridescent. stunning. just gorgeous. keep it up
maybe it's meant for you even if it feels scary, risky and new. sometimes, ease and calm don't mean you're on the right track. the greatest rewards often come from being brave and persistent. keep going, even when things get tough.
If you want to support people with their mental health, be willing to believe in things you cannot see. Be open to the idea that people experience things you know nothing about. And accept that your personal experience is not the only lived experience.
I love those moments when I realize that I'm handling a situation better than a previous version of myself would have been able to. I love conversation with myself when I realize that the self-work has been working. I love realizing that I've grown.
When the source of your trauma is also the realest form of love you've ever experienced, so to hurt is to remember them and to heal is to remember them too.
