creative people must not avoid the pain that they get dealt. I say to myself, sometimes repeatedly “I’ve got to get the hell out of this hurt”…But no. Hurt must be examined like a plague.

Every struggle you had in your life shaped you into the person you are today. Be thankful for the hard times they can only make you stronger

The pain hasn’t gone but I’ve learned how to live with it.

I think this is what we all want to hear: that we are not alone in hitting the bottom, and that it is possible to come out of that place courageous, beautiful, and strong.

I love being horribly straightforward. I love sending reckless text messages (because how reckless can a form of digitized communication be?) and telling people I love them and telling people they are absolutely magical humans and I cannot believe they really exist. I love saying, “Kiss me harder,” and “You’re a good person,” and, “You brighten my day.” I live my life as straight-forward as possible. Because one day, I might get hit by a bus. Maybe it’s weird. Maybe it’s scary. Maybe it seems downright impossible to just be—to just let people know you want them, need them, feel like, in this very moment, you will die if you do not see them, hold them, touch them in some way whether its your feet on their thighs on the couch or your tongue in their mouth or your heart in their hands. But there is nothing more beautiful than being desperate. And there is nothing more risky than pretending not to care. We are young and we are human and we are beautiful and we are not as in control as we think we are. We never know who needs us back. We never know the magic that can arise between ourselves and other humans. We never know when the bus is coming.

Most problems, if you give them enough time and space, will eventually wear themselves out

Time doesn’t heal all wounds. Distractions you find do, people you meet do, and telling yourself you’re happy until you really are, will. Time is just something ticking while you bandage yourself back together.

Alice didn’t choose to go to Wonderland — but she made of it an adventure that was fresh and fantastic and very much her own.
