Feminism shouldn't be feared, it should be embraced.

There is some kind of a sweet innocence in being human- in not having to be just happy or just sad- in the nature of being able to be both broken and whole, at the same time.

Friendship

"But what is the good of friendship if one cannot say exactly what one means? Anybody can say charming things and try to please and to flatter, but a true friend always says unpleasant things, and does not mind giving pain. Indeed, if he is a really true friend he prefers it, for he knows that then he is doing good." - Oscar Wilde

I learn a good deal by merely observing you, And letting you talk as long as you please, And taking note of what you do not say.

T.S. Eliot, from The Cocktail Party (via quilace)

[youcanstayforever-blog]

Don’t trust charming. Why? Because the boy who can talk all the right words knows it too well. Things like boys and love aren’t meant to be practiced like that, it should be a bit awkward- it should be raw.
