Can’t lie to you. If you don’t make a move, you will see literal clowns race past you. Clowns.
Nothing concern life with ‘I am a smart, educated, experienced person’.
You don’t act, you remain there.
Please, my friend, don’t let social media ruin your gentle eyes. It’s a market for everyone; never forget that. If John says women don’t love men, he will find supporters. And if Jane says all men are vile, she, too, will find a market of supporters.
Take what you can here and there but never stop trusting yourself. Your reality does not exist outside the way you see the world; every other reality is someone else’s. Patiently walk through your own desires, your beliefs and change them at your pace. Everyone is selling something out here, don’t buy more than you need.
The beauty of life, and in fact the reason we continue to exist, is because we have enough. Just when you want to give up on humanity, there’s literally a video of someone saving another, to remind you that there’s some of it still left, some of humanity.
Just when a marriage is failing, there is one out there to remind you that it can still work. A man chases treats you unfairly today and tomorrow someone else is giving up his position for you to step in. Men and women can be both good and evil.
We may not have as many kind and loving people as we would like to see, but there’s enough of them. Seek knowledge to understand people’s realities, but also prolong your innocence. Be patient with the parts of you that cannot be put in words. Keep your eyes from being unclouded by hate. Stay gentle.
There are so many voices telling you how to define your happiness. You have to fight for the autonomy to define it yourself. Always why your wants. That’s how you build a life that has you all over it. It doesn’t have to be perfect it just has to be yours.
the size of your life is up to you. that thought should terrify you and thrill you in the same breath. everything you are not is a choice. every limit is self imposed. every ounce of potential you haven’t touched is sitting there waiting for a version of you willing to reach for it. you can have anything you are willing to work for. so go work. go take it. stop admiring the life from a distance and go grab it.
