  The thing about life that I’ve learned is that you’re going to get hurt. You’re going to have emotional nights and cry yourself to sleep for hours. You’re going to suffer some kind of loss. But you will also have those moments where you heal. Those moments are the best. You feel like you smile for the first time again. You feel like you’re alive again. Life just kind of restarts.

  

  Tomorrow, I’ll fake a smile. I’ll hold up my head and pretend to laugh without knowing the joke. I’ll have conversations that make no sense and I’ll watch a world I don’t understand. The people around me, don’t know I stopped giving a damn long ago – I doubt they realize, all being too wrapped up in their next ‘let’s get smashed and not remember in the morning’ parties.. to actually notice. It’s hard describing this feeling. I’m not sure if I’ve given up on the rest of the world, or if they’ve just given up on me. But still, if I take away the friends who don’t know me, the life that has no direction and the meaningless emotions, I have no doubt in my mind things will be a bit clearer. Because even when you’re miles away and your voice becomes the sound I miss so much that it hurts, at least I know I’m part of your life, no matter how big or small that part might be.

  

  There is no person in the world who is made to handle every punch that’s thrown at them. We aren’t made that way. In fact, we’re made to get mad, upset, sad, be hurt, stumble and fall. We aren’t suppose to be able to handle everything. But that’s what makes us stronger in the end, by learning from the things that hurt us the most.

  

  No one could actually say you deserve better because the best thing that you deserve, will always be your own choice.

  

  I know that I should just let go, walk away, and not look back. But I don’t think I could handle knowing that you wouldn’t care if I did.

  

  You shouldn’t need to show skin to get a man. You don’t have to wear low-cut shirts and tight jeans to get attention. That’s not the kind of attention you should want anyway. The guy that likes you in a baggy t-shirt and sweats is the only guy who even deserves you.

  

  You told me everything would be okay, but you were the one crying. You told me to let go, but you were the one holding on.

  

  Someday, everything will make perfect sense. So for now, laugh at the confusion, smile through the tears, and keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason.

  

  Don’t let your fear of the reaction stop you from saying what you know you should say.

  

  The longer you wait for something, the more you appreciate when you finally get it.

  

  Let’s get this straight; you used to know me, and you remember what happened with that situation? See, that girl you used to know, she left. Just like you did.

  

  The strongest people love even when their heart is broken.

  

  Some things just aren’t meant to last. They take up a little space in your heart and leave you a little smarter for next time.

  

  Numbing the pain for awhile will make it worse when you finally feel it.

  

  I wish you could fucking see. I wish you could see the shit I went through for the past months and the emotions I went through. The tears I cried, the nights I ruined for myself just knowing you were out with another girl. I’m not mad, I’m really not I just wish you could know how much I cared. What all I would have done for you. What all I fucking still would do. But I’ve come to a point where these feelings don’t overpower me any longer. I’ve come to be free of your hold but I just wish you could have known all I went through just for you. 

  

  I’d take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you. I need you like a heart needs a beat, but that’s nothing new.

  

  Have faith. Some things fall apart, so that other things come together.

  

  Most people have a harder time letting themselves love than finding someone to love them.

  

  I’m so strong, and that’s what scares me most. The fact that I’m so strong I can block everything out and never actually feel anything or handle any situation. That’s what scares me the most. Being too strong that in the end, I’m only hurting myself. 

  

  The things we crave most are the things that destroy us the quickest.

  

  Friendship means understanding, not agreement. It means forgiveness, not forgetting. It means the memories last, even if the contact is lost.

  

  I’ve got this crazy idea we forgot about what everyone else wants for us and decide for ourselves what we want our lives to be.

  

  The thing that hurts the most is pretending that it doesn’t.

  

  There’s no one better for me. You’re it. You’re everything I’ve ever wanted and the one thing I’ll never have.

  

  Every time I trust somebody, they show me why I shouldn’t. 

  

  I’m always the one attempting to catch people when they fall. Now I’m beginning to wonder who’s going to catch me?

  

  Have you ever felt jealous? Replaced, in a way, as though you have no significance in someone’s life anymore. Have you ever cried yourself to sleep night after night wondering if there was something left to live for, when the one person who made you feel alive has gone and decided you’re just not worth it anymore.

  

  I was your cure and you were my disease. I was saving you, and you were killing me.

  

  High school changes people. It shapes them, and it turns them into who they said they’d never be. But maybe that isn’t a bad thing.

  

  Don’t you hate it when people make a joke about you, about something that you are actually incredibly insecure about and they don’t realize it, but every laugh feels like a stab in your chest, because it hurts so much and brings up memories you’d rather forget. But you can’t say anything, because then people would know your weaknesses. They’d know how insecure you really are. So instead you just laugh it off, and hide the pain you feel inside.

  

  Most importantly; keep smiling. Because life is a beautiful thing, and there’s so much to smile about.
