Life
Lost Opportunities, Lost Possibilities
“Lost opportunities, lost possibilities, feelings we can never get back. That's part of what it means to be alive. But inside our heads - at least that's where I imagine it - there's a little room where we store those memories. A room like the stacks in this library. And to understand the workings of … Continue reading Lost Opportunities, Lost Possibilities
Things
“Things don't always work out the way we hope. You just have to pick yourself up and find a new direction to go in.”―Joelle Charbonneau
We Only Have Ourselves
No, this won't be a cheerful post. If you ever expect that level of dishonesty from me, please unsubscribe/unfollow now.

A lot can change in a … Continue reading Save Yourself

Love Is Never Supposed To Hurt
“Love is never supposed to hurt. Love is supposed to heal, to be your haven from misery, to make living fucking worthwhile.” ―Mia Asher
The Dark Days
I've kept an extremely low profile the past few days. For starters, I am still fighting off an infection. It's draining me terribly. My brain understood I really needed to shovel snow yesterday, but my body sent me back to bed because I couldn't keep my head up or my eyes open. I was battling … Continue reading The Dark Days
