I’ve 

learned 

that 

home 

isn’t a place, 

it’s a 

feeling.

the way they smile at one another.

“She reminded me of the sea; the way she came dancing towards you, wild and beautiful, and just when she was almost close enough to touch she’d rush away again.”

Sometimes I get sad,

“Sometimes I get sad, I just look at my selfies to realize how attractive I look.”

Before you know it

“Before you know it it’s 3 am and you’re 80 years old and you can’t remember what it was like to have 20 year old thoughts or a 10 year old heart.”

“Life is funny isn’t it? Just when you think you’ve got it all figured out, just when you finally begin to plan something, get excited about something, and feel like you know what direction you’re heading in, the paths change, the signs change, the wind blows the other way, north is suddenly south, and east is west, and you’re lost. It is so easy to lose your way, to lose direction. And that’s with following all the signposts”

Just remember that

— Sade Andria Zabala | More Guts Than Fish, More Balls Than You

“Do not call me weak.
It was brave of me to love you, and
it was brave of me to leave you.

It was strength enough for me to walk away
when my legs were shaking,
lungs were aching,
body screaming out for you still

I
walked
away.
And now I’m here.

So don’t ever call me weak.
I am courageous as fuck.”

— The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman

“When you lose someone who’s your home, your only home in the world, and when it happens you think, ‘Oh fuck. I should’ve had a backup home. Another person, or place, or thing. Something to make me feel safe and now I don’t have that and now I’m lost.’”
