• It’s time to party

  

  I miss that feeling when you go to sleep at night and when you wake up in the morning. It’s the feeling that everything is alright in the world. You know, that amazing feeling when you’re whole, that you’ve got everything you want, that you aren’t missing anything. Sometimes when I wake up, I get it for a moment. It lasts a few seconds, but then I remember what happened, and how nothing has been the same since.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Some of the most comforting words in the universe are “me too.” That moment when you find out that your struggle is also someone else’s struggle that you’re not alone, and that others have been down the same road.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Most people spend their time trying to find someone to sleep with, instead of finding someone worth waking up to.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  I will never have that sort of beauty, the kind that paves the way.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Along the way, I’ve learned that you can’t let anyone in too far and you can’t trust endlessly. The biggest mistake you can make is to care or love someone more than yourself, because then you are setting yourself up for disappointment. Boundaries are necessary so that you can protect yourself, because once you’re broken, you’ll never fully be fixed.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Don’t ever use someone’s past against them. You’re just reminding them of the mistakes they made back then. If you watch their facial expression carefully, then you’ll see the hurt in their eyes as they reminisce everything that happened. Never use emotion as a weapon, it strikes deeper than you can imagine.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  It’s the unexpected that changes our lives.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Instead of thinking about what you’re missing, try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  We talk like we know what’s going on, but we don’t. We don’t know anything. We’re young and we’re going to screw up a lot. We’re going to keep changing our minds, and sometimes our hearts. And through all of that, the only real thing we can offer each other is forgiveness.

  
  
  
  
  
  

  Don’t miss out on what’s happening now because you are waiting for something better to come along. you can’t live for the future, just like you can’t live in the past.
