“I don’t believe that people are all bad. i think we’re all a little broken, some more than others. scarred, bruised, tattered, diseased. We’re all just blind ghosts, trying to make sense of tragedies & clambering for a sense of forever distant happiness. We’re all a little hurt. We should learn to make each other better.”

“I walked over to the hill where we used to go and sled. There were a lot of little kids there. I watched them flying. Doing jumps and having races. And I thought that all those little kids are going to grow up someday. And all of those little kids are going to do the things that we do. And they will all kiss someone someday. But for now, sledding is enough. I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn’t.”

“I am a princess. All girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren’t pretty, or smart, or young. They’re still princesses. All of us. Didn’t your father ever tell you that? Didn’t he?”
—A Little Princess, 1995 (via -inspired)
“Someone doesn’t like you? Fuck it. Having a bad day? Fuck it. Didn’t get that job, or that grade, or that promotion you wanted? Fuck it. Fighting with your lover? Fuck it. Feel fat today? Fuck it. Losing control of everything and everyone? Fuck it. What matters now won’t matter soon; the truly important thing is that you are alive, and that you have the capacity to do absolutely anything with this beautiful, crazy coincidence of being on this earth. Just stick your middle fingers in the air and think, ‘Damn, I have it good.’”
—Gerard Way (via nightlifetakingitstoll)
“About Life: It is not complicated unless I make it so. It is not difficult unless I allow it to be. A second is no more than a second, a minute no more than a minute, a day no more than a day. They pass. All things and all time will pass. Don’t force or fear, don’t control or lose control. Don’t fight and don’t stop fighting. Embrace and endure. If you embrace, you will endure.”
—James Frey, A Million Little Pieces (via 500daysofkissingmypillow)
“The interesting thing is why we’re so desperate for this anesthetic against loneliness. You don’t have to think very hard to realize that our dread of both relationships and loneliness, both of which are like sub-dreads of our dread of being trapped inside a self (a psychic self, not just a physical self), has to do with angst about death, the recognition that I’m going to die, and die very much alone, and the rest of the world is going to go merrily on without me. I’m not sure I could give you a steeple-fingered theoretical justification, but I strongly suspect a big part of real art fiction’s job is to aggravate this sense of entrapment and loneliness and death in people, to move people to countenance it, since any possible human redemption requires us first to face what’s dreadful, what we want to deny.”

The first sentence of this quote gets quoted/posted a lot online, but the rest of it is equally - if not more - important to read.

“I sometimes think that people’s hearts are like deep wells. Nobody knows what’s at the bottom. All you can do is imagine by what comes floating to the surface every once in a while.”
—Haruki Murakami (via ERODED)
“If you discovered something that made you tighten inside , you had better try to learn more about it . If you simply ignored the feeling , you would never know what might happen , and in many ways that was worse than finding out you were wrong in the first place. Because if you were wrong , you could go forward in your life without ever looking back over your shoulder and wondering what might have been .”

“Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.”

“I’m in love, and when you’re in love you don’t care what the consequences are, you just hang off every word they say, and do anything for them because seeing them happy makes you happy.”

Who do you love?
If it is not too personal I want to play a game. All you have to do is post who you love, if it’s requited or not, and how you respond to this. We might find we have alot in common with each other.
Do reblog, share it along.
Let me start.
I love my ex boyfriend still, who left me for my bestfriend. I still cry for the sucker.
Feels like pampering herself with dresses. :/
