"One night a few moons ago, I saw flecks of what could have been lights, but it might just be you, passing by unbeknownst to me"
"This scene feels like what I once saw on a screen, i searched aurora borealis green, I have never seen someone live from within, blurring out my periphery"
-Snow on the beach, Taylor Swift

"Be a lot gentler to yourself, more kinder to your heart, a bit more proud of your progress no matter how small. Yes, you made mistakes, you probably harvested the fruit of that mistakes and you failed along the way. Still, you did your best and that's what matter most,and I believe even when you didn't get what you are hoping for despite doing your best, that best of yours is not a waste, understand that. Keep doing your best, you are alive and young and there are endless chances,people to love, friends to laugh, jokes to tell, wind to feel, exams to cry, coffee shops to visit, and heartbreak to experience. Love yourself sweetheart".

Man's main concern is not to gain pleasure or to avoid pain but rather to see a meaning in his life. That is why man is even ready to suffer, on the condition, to be sure, that his suffering has a meaning. ~Viktor Frankl

To everyone who’s giving their very best to be better versions of themselves, never hate yourself if there are still days where you feel insecure of the things you promised not to feel insecure about anymore, if there are still days where you say unpleasant words or have negative thoughts about something or someone. If there are days where you feel like you still haven’t addressed your toxic traits or you still haven’t reconciled with some people or with your old self. Never hate yourself if some days you still fail to manage your time well, to accomplish important things, to fulfill your year-to-year resolutions. Never hate yourself if you still fall short or give too much of yourself.
Remember, growth isn’t linear. No matter how far you think you’ve gone through in your self fixing process, there will always be unexpected fluctuates of emotion that might cause you to lose a grip of your ideal, full-grown self. But one thing is for sure, as long as you keep in mind that these are valid and you continue the walk, despite small steps and seasonal stops, you’ll get there. And you’ll be proud of yourself.

“When they asked me what I wanted to be I said I didn’t know.
"Oh, sure you know," the photographer said.
"She wants," said Jay Cee wittily, "to be everything.”
― Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar

At a certain age, you’ll stop longing for a companion.
You’ll stop insisting to join a lunch out when you’re not invited or feeling offended over a planned birthday surprise that no one told you about. You’ll learn not to stress over people and forced relationships. Instead, you’ll start enjoying your own company. You’ll stop feeling awkward over an empty seat in front of you in a café or a large bucket of popcorn all for yourself in a cinema. You’ll choose sleep over an uncommitted conversation, to stay at home and indulge yourself in classic movies than to force yourself to show up in a Friday night party just to blend in. You’ll learn to cross roads alone, take bus rides on your own, witness breathtaking views and enjoy once-in-a-lifetime experiences with yourself.
At a certain age you’ll learn that moments can also be fun and memorable even in your own company. That it’s never sad to explore life’s corners on your own, that’s its actually more fulfilling and freeing. At a certain age you’ll learn that you are not getting any younger and all you can do is to make every moment count. That life is a short but meaningful journey; and to make the most out of it, you have to stop waiting for someone to hold your hand and walk the road with you. You have get up and cherish the walk yourself.
—Ali

It’s dark because you are trying too hard.
Lightly child, lightly. Learn to do everything lightly.
Yes, feel lightly even though you’re feeling deeply.
Just lightly let things happen and lightly cope with them.
I was so preposterously serious in those days, such a humorless little prig.
Lightly, lightly – it’s the best advice ever given me.
When it comes to dying even. Nothing ponderous, or portentous, or emphatic.
No rhetoric, no tremolos,
no self conscious persona putting on its celebrated imitation of Christ or Little Nell.
And of course, no theology, no metaphysics.
Just the fact of dying and the fact of the clear light.
So throw away your baggage and go forward.
There are quicksands all about you, sucking at your feet,
trying to suck you down into fear and self-pity and despair.
That’s why you must walk so lightly.
Lightly my darling,
on tiptoes and no luggage,
not even a sponge bag,
completely unencumbered.
-Island,Aldous Huxley

"Death is the worst,this beauty and the wonders of nature,it means you'll never be coming back, they say the other world is beautiful, who has come back there to tell us if its beautiful or not? Prefer the present to these fine promises,prefer the present."

“It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you've known forever don't see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on."

“The thought of sitting in front of a man behind a desk and telling him that I wanted a job, that I was qualified for a job, was too much for me. Frankly, I was horrified by life, at what a man had to do simply in order to eat, sleep, and keep himself clothed.”
— Charles Bukowski, Factotum

“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never, to forget… another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing."
— Arundhati Roy

I love people who are nothing like the ordinary. The ones who were riding their bikes and skinny dipping and collecting pebbles while everyone else was where everyone else was. People who are raw and chaotic. They won’t know what to say in a conversation but they’ll tell you the physical properties of all nearby planets or play you an instrument or read you their favourite poem. They will show you versions of themselves in minute details and roll up their sleeves so you can see their scars. When they speak, they unknowingly say things that awaken an echo in you. When you look at them in the eye you can tell that they have been through more than most, but they are wild and unapologetic, and they will look you in the eye. When you tell them your secret, they will treat it like a flower and put it behind their ear. I love people like that, and how could I not? They carry the kind of magic I have never seen before, they will untie their hair, shake it loose and make you fall in love with them.
They are so beautiful it’s impossible to believe the whole world isn’t pulled toward them the way you are, but because it isn’t so, it makes those people that much more special.
- Jasmin Silja
