“The world is good today, the world is better today because you are in it.”

[lunasalad]

Great things happen when people take a chance and go beyond fear.

Me

[lunasalad]

Tahani taught me that you can make a family even if you never really had one. Jason taught me that I have value beyond what I do for other people. And Eleanor, there was a moment on Earth when all hope was lost, and I watched you have hope anyway.

The Good Place

[lunasalad]

“I miss you, but I don’t tell anyone. I don’t tell my friends. The poetry I write is brutal, unforgiving. I don’t mention your name, even on the phone. I’m afraid it will summon you further, like a spell uttered with reckless disregard for the consequences… I’m afraid you’ll sense the weakness and claw your way out of the dirt, find a way back in through a chink in my armor, and lay there beneath my most recent scars, digging your way in even deeper. I know it’s not healthy. Out of sight isn’t really out of mind. And the box I’ve shoved you in still rattles in the closet in my head, waiting to be let out. Insistent. Angrier and more powerful the longer it goes on, ignored. The poetry I write is about demanding more. It’s about moving on and finding someone better. But what if you were my only chance? What if you were the last opportunity I’d ever have to be held and kissed and treated at least like I mattered a little? What if the scraps you had to give me were all that I would ever deserve? And now I deserve nothing. I know there has to be more out there And maybe I’m just lonely And I should have moved on But my stupid, stubborn heart Brags I miss you.”

— “I miss you”

My old self was there for everyone, she kept giving little pieces of herself away.

The question isn’t if humans are good or bad. The question is, do they try to make themselves better today than they were yesterday?

Why does everything feel so heavy? It feels like I can’t breathe. Even after I got everything off my chest. Why do I even try being happy when I just end up more depressed?

Questions to myself

[lunasalad]

You can’t let the threat of tomorrow ruin today.

The flash

[lunasalad]

I said what I needed to say, and did what I needed to do. Now all that’s left, is up to you.

Things that matter are scary.

The Good Doctor

[lunasalad]

The point is, in this case, even if it's not rational, you're allowed to feel a little angry. Let yourself off the hook. Process it, work your way through it, and then get your shit together. Cause we have a lot of work to do.

” ’Because there are people who need you to save them as much as you yourself need to be saved.’ she said. ’Deny it all you want, but there are people- your friends- who need you here... Because I was sleeping- a long, endless sleep- and I was awoken by a voice. And the voice didn't belong to one person, but to many. Some whispering, some screaming, some not even aware that they were crying out. But they all want the same thing... And when you are ready- when you start to hear them crying out as well- then you will know why I came to you, and why I have stood by you, and will continue to watch over you, no matter how many times you shove me away.’ ”

”Elena took a step toward her. ’You could rattle the stars, ’ she whispered. ’You could do anything, if you only dared. And deep down, you know it, too. That's what scares you the most.’ ”

Throne of Glass

[lunasalad]

” ’We all bear scars, Dorian. Mine just happen to be more visible than most...’ ”

Throne of Glass

She threw back the blankets, and Fleetfoot burrowed farther beneath. ’Of course I've been kissed, ’ she snapped, trying not to think about Sam and what she's shared with him. ’But it wasn't by some stuffed shirt, pompous, arrogant princeling!’

He looked down at his chest. ’Stuffed shirt?’

’Oh, hush up, ’ she said, hitting him with a pillow. She moved to the other side of the bed, got up, and walked to the balcony.”

” ’So, you liked it?’ He grinned lazily.

’No! Oh, go away!’ She flung herself onto her pillows, pulling the blankets above her head. She was going to die from embarrassment. Fleetfoot licked her face as she hid in the darkness of the sheets.

’Come now, ’ he said. ’From your reaction, one would think you'd never been kissed.’ ”

” ’Last night... I'm sorry if I was too forward with you.’ he paused. ’Celaena, you're grimacing.’ Had she been making a face?

’Er- --sorry.’

’It did upset you, then!’

’What did?’

’The kiss!’

Phlegm caught in her throat, and the assassin coughed. ’Oh, it was nothing, ’ she said, thumping her chest as she cleared her throat. ’I didn't mind it. But I didn't hate it, if that's what you're thinking!’ She immediately regretted saying it.
