“The truth is that our finest moments are most likely to occur when we are feeling deeply uncomfortable, unhappy, or unfulfilled. For it is only in such moments, propelled by our discomfort, that we are likely to step out of our ruts and start searching for different ways or truer answers.”

It just hit me how fragile life is. You never know if you’re saying goodbye to someone for the last time. You become accustomed to seeing people every day or week or month and you get attached to them. We’re expected to be prepared to let people go without a choice. A silly accident or maybe a cut too deep and that person is gone forever. I don’t know if I’ll ever be ready to say goodbye to the people who mean so much to me.

“I crave space. It charges my batteries. It helps me breathe. Being around people can be so exhausting, because most of them love to take and barely know how to give. Except for a rare few.”

“Relax. You will become an adult. You will figure out your career. You will find someone who loves you. You have a whole lifetime; time takes time. The only way to fail at life is to abstain.”
