TO THE GIRL WHO’S AFRAID TO LOVE 

TO THE GIRL WHO’S AFRAID TO LOVE 

I know the war you hide beneath your eyelids as the night falls on your tired shoulders. You silence your battles and shove them under the carpet - ashamed to let anyone see your mess. You're not afraid to love; you're afraid of making mistakes and disappointing others. But love, you're human too. I know you're confused and hurting. Sometimes you have to admit the truth that you, too, needed saving. I know you're used to crying alone but just this once, allow yourself to cry on someone's shoulders. Be real. Allow youself vulnerability. Put down your book for a while and allow yourself to make a mistake because that's how you really learn. Sometimes you don't have to be sure about...

It's not you, beautiful. Not you. It's not your fault that it didn't work out. It isn't a weakness to feel weary from trying to fix things that keep falling apart. It's not a sin to admit that you're so near to giving up. You are more than the frustrations, insecurities or brokenness that you battle with. You are MORE. You are amazing for waking up at 6:00 AM when you barely slept because of the madness and anxieties swirling inside your head. You are brave for staying gentle; for choosing kindness and grace when darkness is trying to own a corner of your heart. I admire your soul for the light that radiates from it. You are loved. Please keep going. All will be alright.  - KM . . ....

The Road Trip — Your mind is a car. But you're not the only one who can drive. Sometimes it seems, that you're only along for the ride. When you're at the wheel. The passengers: Love, joy and cheer; hold all of the maps Telling you speeds to go. And where. But despite them all there, you're still not in control of the gear. For in the back sits sorrow, loneliness.. and fear. They scream and yell: "You've now passed contempt!! YOU IDIOT!! You know you're only comfortable there" Distress, in an attempt to fix the mess, flicks to reverse and begins to steer. Now moving backwards so fast even love is shedding a tear. But knowing failure is near, in one...

family & cool topics

  How do you know if something's your favorite? Like, how do you know your favorite band is Twenty Øne Piløts or your favorite book is Eleanor & Park?   You just know, you know? (Ha) Like how Captain Fantastic has just become one of my favorite movies of all time. The moment the film ended and the credits started coming on, I just knew that it shoved itself into a special place in my heart and my favorite movies shelf in my imaginary and dream dorm room.   Because to be completely honest, Captain Fantasic is just quite simply, effin' fantastic.    CF is a 2016 American comedy-drama film written and directed by Matt Ross and starring Viggo Mortensen (Wikipedia, Ily),...

Why we push people away and why it's not fine.

Why we push people away and why it's not fine.

Sometimes when we feel hurt or angry we tend to push people away. Often times, we end up hurting their feelings and destroying the relationship. Now, I have to admit that I too am guilty of this, but I have been trying to change it. It's not easy, but we'll get there :)  I came to realize that doing so, is not going to help solve the problem. In fact, it makes it worse. We want the other person to keep chasing us, but of course they're not mind readers. They don't know what you're thinking. Most of the times they will just assume that we want them out of our lives and stay away, which leaves us even more hurt cuz we think that we didn't matter enough to them. So, let's stop ruining...

Familiarity or Unfamiliarity?

Familiarity or Unfamiliarity?

You are in a relationship for two years and everthing is so familiar that its making you bored. You’v been doing the same things with the same person, spending days with the same person, fighting with the same person with same reasons. You feel stuck and you want to experience something new. You get to meet a person, a total stranger that makes you feel new. A refresher from everything. You just had a chance to talk to him for a little time but, you feel like you’ve known him for a long time. You’ve been reaching out consistently and having late night calls, talking non-sense, making each other laugh. It is such a relief but now, you are stuck between Familiarity and...
