My very favorite color (without a doubt) is pink. However, the fact that I wear black every single day confuses the matter.

The fact that we didn’t have we didn’t have a happy ending will never take away from the fact that we had a magical beginning.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Full on attention— show me something different: intention.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

I’ll never judge someone for their darkness— it damn near took me with it.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Immediately stop yourself before asking me “have you ever seen (movie)” because no. I promise I haven’t.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

You left me in the middle of my storm.. so with all due respect, don’t expect to sneak back in when the rain goes away and the sun comes out.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Reconciling what your brain knows with what your heart feels is one of life’s most complicated and unexplainable internal battles.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

My loyalty to you was absolutely unmatched, unwavering. Unfortunately, I was so faithful to you, that I betrayed myself.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

My heart was pure and I was loving you while you were breaking me. I’m not sure that will ever sit right with me.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

I will be soft when it’s safe.. but not one second before.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

I will forever be willing to speak on the difficult chapters of my life, the person I have been, and the mistakes I have made. But make sure you’re prepared to hear the testimony of how God turned my brokenness into beauty.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Judging others is the easy way out. Being understanding and not judging others requires dedication to being patient, committed to understanding, and willingness to being empathetic and giving compassion.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

You better be as loud about the accomplishments and wins in my life as you have been about my mistakes.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Self love is the most valuable weapon in surviving difficult times. That self love will be the light to get you out of the dark.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

The situations that I cried out to God asking “why” have become the situations that I thank God for now. Because first it hurts like hell… and then it changes you.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Your boundaries must be stronger than your empathy. Your peace depends on it.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Quit explaining yourself and justifying your decisions. The right people, the people that are “your people” wont request or require your explanation.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

This chapter of my life is by invite only. If you’re one of those invited, you’ll know.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Being casual or liking something has never been the way I operate. It either consumes me or it doesn’t exist for me. All or nothing.

[Katy McCreight @katymccreight]

Yeah.. you might die for them. But would you live for them?
