Kindle Notes & Highlights
I’m a survivor of many things, but even survivors know when to give up.
“Past and future can collide in such a way that it shakes someone’s present.” Phoenix
Even good people have the power to hurt you with their actions.
Black and white doesn’t give explanations on why sometimes good people can bring you the most pain. Because you never see it coming.
Enjoy life to the fullest, but also be careful. Don’t sacrifice yourself at the altar of others, because the funny thing about scarifies? No one remembers you made them when they turn their back on you.
That’s the thing really about apologies; I never make them. I consider them useless and a waste of air. If you do something and you regret it, don’t do it again. What’s the point of begging for forgiveness?
The person can see you have changed by your actions, surely not with your words.
As long as you love or hate someone, you are forever attached to them in a way that you are never truly free.
“When we are late, one minute passes so fast. When we are early, one minute seems like an eternity. One minute. A minute that forever changed my life and his.”
They say saints are always attracted to sinners, craving to step over the line to the dark side and feed their curiosity about sinners who enjoy every pleasure this world has to offer. But what do you do when you are a sinner yourself?
But forgiveness is like love; it’s either freely given or has no meaning at all. You can’t force the emotion out of someone.
“You’re a poison that’s slowly killing me from the inside out,” she replies,
We are doomed either way; might as well enjoy the ride while it lasts—without illusions. When all of this ends, so will we, because there was never an us to begin with.
The biggest lies we tell… are spoken to ourselves.
The people who are afraid to commit are those who already loved once, and it destroyed them to a point where love becomes the greatest risk.
Desire is a weakness wrapped in all-consuming emotion with the power to rule your every single thought. And although you know you will burst into flames if you’re not careful enough, nothing in this world can stop you when it calls your name,
Love in its rawest form, love that can never be called beautiful for how ugly it is.
“My worst nightmare… but my only salvation. The devil and the angel, the man I hate and love at the same time.”
