“She hadn’t gone out in days. She slept, she woke up, she made coffee, she wrote.”

— Margarita Karapanou, tr. by Karen Emmerich, from “The Sleepwalker,”

“Please do yourself a favour. Don’t lower your standards to fit in. Don’t shrink who you are to make others feel comfortable. Do find and surround yourself with people who like you just the way you are and who encourage you to keep growing.”

— Kristen Butler (via onlinecounsellingcollege)

take chances with people. if you want to get closer to them, make sure they know you want to spend time with them. go to have coffee with them, text them first, make them feel loved, tell them little things that you love about them. most people find it hard to make the first move, both in friendships and romantic relationships, so a lot of potential relationships never happen. life is too short. so go for it, because more often than not it can make life brighter and softer and happier.

“أردت فقط أن أكون معك. إنه بهذه البساطة و هذا التعقيد !”

— تشارلز بوكوفسكي

“I am afraid. Not of life, or death, or nothingness, but of wasting it as if I had never been.”
