Make the commitment that, not matter how lonely you get on your journey, you will not reinvite toxic people back into your life.

I think the kindest people are so kind because the world has been unkind to them. I think that they know what it feels like to be ingnored, unloved, and alone. They know how much it hurts, and don't want anyone else to have to feel this pain. So they are kind, when others are not. Even when others do not deserve it. They are kind.

Sometimes, you end up gettin’ where you wanna go

And then find out when you get there that you don’t wanna be where you’re at

And then you feel like this is all just a waste of time

But just remember, if you never got there then you’d always be wanting to get there

And then you don’t know you don’t wanna be there until you get there

So sometimes you just gotta go where you don’t wanna go

Just to know that that’s not where you wanna be

We were like a cigarette and a blunt left in an ashtray

Both burnt out

Left for the dead

It was nice, being together

Up until the end

“We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others.”

“If I have learned anything over this last year it’s that you have to live your own life too so that if something we hoped for doesn’t work out, you still have two legs to stand on, you still have your own path.”

“I think people would be happier if they admitted things more often. In a sense we are all prisoners of some memory, or fear, or disappointment—we are all defined by something we can’t change.”

— Simon Van Booy
