“Let me put this simply, I love you, and will continue to do so until the stars burst

and the earth splits and God whispers at last to the universe, goodnight.”

“Let loose once in a while. Stay up too late, drink until you drop, order the dirtiest, fattiest, most delicious item on the menu. You cannot live your whole life restricting yourself only to what is good and healthy for the body. Sometimes, you have got to do what is good and healthy for the soul.”

“In a world where so much is expected of you, one of the most important lessons you’ll ever learn is that growing up doesn’t mean leaving behind who you are—that acting your age doesn’t mean letting go of your youth.

The truth is, you are never too old to dance in the rain until your skin turns blue. To ride a bicycle through the night with the wind on your face and all of your troubles long behind you.

You are never too old to blast the volume on your favourite song. To mark your name into the wet concrete on the sidewalk just because you want the world to remember you were here.

You are never too old to run away from home. To put down all that is expected of you and wander lightly into the wild unknown. You are never too old to rediscover yourself. To dream and hope like anything is possible. It is.  

You are never too old to make love like it is for the very first time. Full of nerves and clumsy laughter, and hands that don’t know what to do with themselves. You are never too old to take a chance. To be as reckless and bold as you were with your heart before years of rejection left you cynical and cautious.

You are never too old to reach out for help. To fall apart gently in the arms of a friend. To hold onto your mother like she is the last thing anchoring you here to the earth.

You are never too old to remain young at heart. While maturity may bring you wisdom and strength, it is the playful, curious child in you that makes the world magic—that makes a life enchanting and worth living at all.”

“I am learning to say Yes. To be daring and spontaneous. To hurl myself into people and places and moments without hesitation or second-guessing myself. To challenge my anxieties, confront my fears, and trust unwaveringly in chance and fate to lead me to where I am supposed to be.”

“A friend was someone with a sixth sense, someone who could read the silences between your words and knew precisely how hard to push when you were on the verge of a poor decision, someone who showed up with a bottle of wine and a shoulder to lean on before you even knew that was what you needed.”

“It is a special kind of love that can stand the test of time. Though over the years I have grown and changed significantly, my feelings for you never have. It is still you. You are the constant. The one thing my past, present, and future will always have in common.”

“In the end,

we were like ghosts



hanging on

to the roof of the earth.



Halfway between worlds,

too afraid to let go.”

“In the end

we were like ghosts



hanging on

to the roof of the earth



halfway between worlds

too afraid to let go.”
