i wish i was still a child so i could just find a bunch of leaves and put them in a bowl and pour things in it and give it to someone and they would say “thank u, mmm good soup” and pretend to eat it and just accept that as my affection instead of like……… talking to me about things like whats happening or how things are

I want to find someone who makes every time I see them feel just as breathtaking and amazing as the first time and feels the same about me.

“1.) self love is so important. i’ve struggled for years w how i see myself, with how i looked at my body, simply with how i treated myself. sometimes we have this idea of “perfection.” and we set an unrealistic goal to get there and usually, it’s not so plausible because the idea of perfection is simply unreachable. BUT, what i have realized is that happiness and confidence are, in fact, reachable. instead of striving for perfection, strive for your healthiest range. strive for feeling good, strive for contentment. i’ve started working out and running and eating healthier every single day and i feel gooood! emphasis on the good. i threw away the idea of perfection and brought in the idea of a happy, healthy, me and i feel so much better than before. baby steps. try to feel better today than you did yesterday, you will get there. 2.) the world is cruel. it can knock you down- it WILL knock you down. but that does not make you weak. having feelings does not make you weak. hurting and needing someone does NOT make you weak. it makes you strong, because you have a heart and something hurt it. don’t view that as weak, view it as a sign of life. you are human. we all are. we are wired for imperfection and mistakes and emotions that don’t always make sense and it is okay for you to reach out for help! in fact, i encourage everyone to do so because everyone could use a little help now and then, whether they will admit it or not. 3.) there is more to life than yourself. often times when i’m hurting all i can see is my little bubble. my own little world of hate, but there is always more to life than that. when tragedy strikes, it always shapes us, whether in good way or bad a way, it does. so when you are hurting i encourage you to go outside, look around you, and breathe. realize there is more to life than right now. realize there is more to you, than right now. you are not done growing. you are not done learning. so keep pushing forward. break out of the bubble of hurting once you have properly felt it and allow yourself to heal- you deserve it. you will always deserve it”

“Suddenly I wonder, ‘Where is the girl that I was last year? Two years go? What would she think of me now?’”

— Sylvia Plath

[akosileeanne]

“She is the brightest star on the darkest night because she understands how it feels to be lost She is the mountain that offers support and shelter because she understands what it means to be a survivor But she is also the ocean, pulling her waves back into herself as she rests between breaths- And she hopes that the world understands that even the sun must set to be able to rise.”

— Emina Gaspar-Vrana, She Is

“I wanted to be the sun that lights up your day. I wanted to be one of the reasons why you wake up in the morning. I wanted to be the beautiful clouds that make you look up at the sky, and make you wear that blissful smile of yours. I wanted to be your favorite book that you read too many times. I wanted to be the one who holds your hand while walking on the long wide street. I wanted to be the face you’re trying to look for in the sea of strangers. And when you get tired, I wanted to be the one who sings you lullabies to sleep. I wanted to be the blanket that makes you feel warm in the cold lonely night. I wanted to scare all the nightmares that make you wake up in the middle of the night. I wanted to be with you on your happy days, but most of all, I wanted to be the one who kisses those tears away. Because I would be the one who stays when you feel that the whole world already left you behind.”

“I am here to live out loud.”

- Emile Zola

[akosileeanne]

“1. TRAVEL ALONE. Have time to be away from everything. Rediscover your purpose in life by going to places you’ve never been before. Explore new things, experience different cultures, learn new languages and meet different people. Replenish your soul with excitement and exploration. It will create many opportunities for you, and room for improvement and personal growth. Traveling alone will teach you how to become independent and confident. 2. LOOK FOR YOUR TRUE SELF. This is the perfect time to make your passion your profession. Chase your dreams; follow where your heart wants to go. Do things that make you feel happy. Never settle for good enough, be the best version of yourself. Look for your purpose. Along the way, you will discover things that will clearly define you as a person. Embrace this. And let success flow; everything else will follow. 3. CUT THE CLUTTER. Choose and keep the right people in your life. Associate with people who you want to be like. You’re not going to imitate them; you will learn from them, grow from them, and discover your true voice. These kinds of people will bring cheerfulness; they will motivate you and remind you that you’re on the right track. Creating a positive environment around you attracts success and it makes your vision clearer. It also creates a healing space that fosters growth that opens a door for opportunity. Everything will become lighter because positivity brings happiness. So never waste a space in your life for a negative vibe. 4. DON’T BE AFRAID TO TAKE RISKS. If you’re tired of where you are right now, reevaluate your situation. Are you just working to live and survive another day or you want something you will never get tired of doing because you love it? Learn to weigh things around you. Pursue what makes you happy. Risk, in order to see the things on the other side of the bridge. Be brave enough to quit and start anew. Don’t be afraid to stop doing the things that don’t serve your path. Risking redefines your thought processes and it optimizes opportunities. So never be afraid to risk because some of the greatest adventures in your life will come from things you never realized were possible. 5. BALANCE YOUR PERSONAL AND PROFESSIONAL LIFE. We only have a 24 hour time period every day, so make every second count. Never waste a moment being unproductive. Master the art of time management. Have time for yourself, to have fun and enjoy things in life. Have time for your family; spend precious moments with people you love. And have time for your professional growth. You have to spend your days wisely. 6. BE GRATEFUL. Make it a habit of saying “thank you” to people when they do something for you. You don’t know what kind of storm they are experiencing, so become their rainbow. Share your kindest smile. Appreciate them. It looks like a small effort from you, but for them, it completes their day. Never keep positivity within you, share it with everyone you meet. 7. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT AND CRAZY. Sometimes, being normal is boring and redundant. You need to stretch out of your comfort zone. Jump, even if you don’t know what lies beyond. Put excitement in your life that you can look back on and laugh hard when you become old. 8. BECOME SOMEONE’S HAPPY PILL. Drink a shot of happiness every day because the brain works best when you are happy. 9. RENEW YOUR FAITH. Being an adult means a lot of work and stress. Sometimes, you will lose time and balance for everything, including your personal relationship with God. When things don’t go the way we want to or when all hopes are gone, everything seems to drift away. We keep on questioning and doubting God’s plans for us. Switch it over into praise. Use the situation to rebuild your relationship with Him. God wants you to communicate. The reason why He takes something away from you is because He wants you to discover greater things in store. The best way to renew your faith is to surround yourself with God. Pray a lot. 10. ACCEPT THE FACT THAT THE WORLD IS FILLED WITH HARD TIMES. Quit complaining. Do not think about things you cannot change. Focus your attention on things you can act upon. Reward yourself when you have done something great. In order to become successful, you must embrace change and motivate yourself. Remember, people won’t love you just because you love them. Think before you commit. Don’t let your thoughts run in your tongue”
