[jjnotesquotes]

“Someone can be madly in love with you and still not be ready. They can love you in a way you have never been loved and still not join you on the bridge. And whatever their reasons you must leave. Because you never ever have to inspire anyone to meet you on the bridge. You never ever have to convince someone to do the work to be ready. There is more extraordinary love, more love that you have never seen, out here in this wide and wild universe. And there is the love that will be ready.”

— Nayyirah Waheed

[jjnotesquotes]

“Lately I’ve been thinking about who I want to love, and how I want to love, and why I want to love the way I want to love, and what I need to learn to love that way, and who I need to become to become the kind of love I want to be…and when I break it all down, when I whittle it into a single breath, it essentially comes out like this: Before I die, I want to be somebody’s favorite hiding place, the place they can put everything they know they need to survive, every secret, every solitude, every nervous prayer, and be absolutely certain I will keep it safe. I will keep it safe.”

— Andrea Gibson (via thoughtkick)

[jjnotesquotes]

Even when the people you thought would stay turn into the first ones to go

And when the voice in the back of your head is constantly telling you no

Know that there’s someone who loves you for the parts you don’t show

Not how much you’re worth or how much you know

Don’t doubt who you are or whether you’ll make it

Or how many more years you’ll be able to take it

Because I know there are days when it doesn’t seem worth it

And you’re wondering why you thought you could do it

But the reason I’m here is to tell you you’re perfect

Of all the things to keep close to your heart and to worship

that job and those friends and that car are the furthest

you have forever with me on your side

And you’re never wrong and you’re always mine

And you’ll never have to ask me to stay because

there’s nothing you can say that will ever make me leave

You’re always ok and you’re never alone

As long as I’m on this earth, I consider you home

[jjnotesquotes]

“Love is so short, forgetting is so long.”

— Pablo Neruda

[jjnotesquotes]

She was beautiful, but not like those girls in the magazines. She was beautiful, for the way she thought. She was beautiful, for the sparkle in her eyes when she talked about something she loved. She was beautiful, for her ability to make other people smile even if she was sad. No, she wasn't beautiful for something as temporary as her looks. She was beautiful, deep down to her soul.

— F. Scott Fitzgerald

[jjnotesquotes]

“You don’t find your worth in someone. You find your worth within yourself and then find someone who’s worthy of you. Remember that.”

— Unknown (via thoughtkick)
