So you need to keep burning. You are a star on Earth, and again, I’m sorry if I’m being melodramatic, but hey — someone’s got to remind you. Someone left you and now you’re wondering if you are just ash. Are you the aftermath of a star exploding? No. You are a star reaching new heights.

they made this decision. They could have stayed. And they didn’t. I’m sorry. I want to hug you right now…

The truth is, when someone doesn’t want you, no reason matters. No amount of fixing could change that and actually, there isn’t anything that needs to be fixed because nothing was wrong or missing in the first place. You have always been wholly you, before or after them,

You will have days where the nostalgia returns and you can’t even breathe because you miss them so much. You will have days where you just want to sit in bed and cry staring at the letters they wrote to you. But, you will also have days where you wake up clear headed and nothing reminds you of them…The more you realize that it’s okay to feel what you are feeling, the more you heal.

If you don’t trust anything or anyone in life, trust that the things you leave behind allow you to make room for the unexpected.

“No, you are not for everyone. You are never going to be able to stop yourself from screaming your love from rooftops, you will never be able to play it cool…
I hope that you do not let the world condemn you for being too loud, too expressive, too soft;”

“You will forever be attached to the deep parts of those you tangle yourself within, though they will never get their hands dirty long enough to uncover the treasure that hums within your dancing pulse…
You are going to be misunderstood in the way you care, for you will love people not for what is obvious within them, but for what is hidden beneath their masks.”

I learned that no matter how hard it is, it’s so important to say what you mean, and mean what you say. Not only are you being honest with others, but being honest with yourself.

Life. Gets. Better. Sometimes it’s hard to see past tomorrow or next week. It’s easy to get caught up in this moment, and think about how bad it is without realizing that with time, things will start to look up for you again.
