#my journal quotes

[paradoxical-plutonian]

It would be wrong to say I am grieving. Grieving feels like such an active process, a constant yearning. Instead, I feel passive acceptance in a world washed of color.

“I am afraid of getting older. I am afraid of getting married. Spare me from cooking three meals a day— spare me from the relentless cage of routine and rote. I want to be free... I want, I want to think, to be omniscient.”

-Sylvia Plath written in 1949 at age 17

isn't it funny how life is wonderful and messy and hard like one day you are crying your eyes out because you feel lost and the next day you are packing your stuff ready to leave your worries behind and start a new chapter in a different country and then you find all these people who love and support you and you still feel lost and you still have no idea what your life is supposed to look like but you're enjoying pink sunset and book dates at the park and overpriced coffees and maybe you just have to enjoy the breeze without expecting a storm

Isn't it wild when tons of guys are all about your looks and brains, but you're just craving validation from that one special person? Like, sure, it's flattering, but nothing beats hearing those sweet words from the one who truly matters to you. Quality over quantity, always. 🌟💖

[paradoxical-plutonian]

Deep down I feel I can never be myself, nor do I truly know who that self is, only that I believe she is inherently unloveable.

Little things that aren't

LITTLE

The unprompted 'This remind me of you' text.

People who make you forget about your phone.

The way dogs seem to smile at you.

Learning to say no.

Comfortable silence.

The way they glance back at you before leaving.

Friends who bring up your name in rooms with opportunities.

"I'm at _____. Do you want anything? "

"Text me when you get home. "

"Of course I remember. "

Asking you questions when you're talking about something.

Specific compliments

When they know the sidewalk rule.

Walking in a group and someone's waiting for you to catch up.

Waiting until I get inside to drive away.

Being asked for your opinion.

Cut fruits from your parents.

Forehead kisses.

Head pats.

Playing with your hair till you fall asleep.

Being alive.
