Red Sugar, No More Quotes

“Life isn’t in our brain // It flows through our veins.
Just a little cut to drain out the galaxies that keep me up tonight.
Just a little cut and all this goes away. Just a little cut and no more thoughts. No memories. No pain. I mean screw nostalgia.
I don’t want it. Take it back!”

“The saddest thing you can do as a human is to discuss one person with another for the sake of it. The unkindest thing you can do to a human is to tarnish their reputation in front of others just to make yourself look good. An unfortunate thing that you can do to a person is to be unapologetically direct and not understand their side. However, the WORST thing you can do is to slip in ‘little’ white lies just to save yourself from confrontations & emotional conversations.
Complain about each other to each other.
Have your freedom … G E N T L Y.
Discuss your mind – politely.”

“Confusion is a stairway to clarity, in a way.
Sometimes, we cross it quickly & other times we make it our home.

“Sometimes, no matter how hard we try for someone and hope that they will get better in time – they never do. Abusive relationships shouldn’t have a key to your chambers of heart. Hold your key and keep it close. Don’t end up getting addicted to such pain or human beings – for that matter. You might not be Thor but they can surely be Loki & hold you prisoner to their trickster nature.”

“The worst thing about being underweight or overweight; too dark or too white – in short too plain and bland in someone’s perception is the fact that most people just end up talking to you because they feel you can be a good stepping stone. And guess what – it sucks! It sucks being the ladder to so many, helping everyone grow and bloom, only to find yourself splayed upon the mud to be used as a path from one person to another. Not moving an inch. Just lying there on the sticky dirt infused ground – hoping someone would help you up – no one ever comes. The only person who can help you crawl out is yourself. Get up. Try. Just try.
You ARE Enough!”
― Sijdah Hussain, Red Sugar, No More

“In the earliest English, the word bully was created by borrowing boel from the Dutch language. It means lover or sweetheart.

“This is a story of;
light & dark – moon & stars – hurt & heart
A human – A Woman – A bird
A man – A key
A friendship – A relationship – A sinking ship
Anger – Hope – Grief – Dismay
A cat – A plant – A knight – A dog stray
love & hate
A cage – A knife
And endless preys
Succumbed together,
Suppressed below the layers
Of skin & blood vessels turned black
‘t i s a story of a heart burnt to r o t !”
