one.
A few times in my life I’ve had moments of absolute clarity. When, for a few brief seconds, the silence drowns out the noise and I can feel rather than think. And things seem so sharp, and the world seems so fresh. I can never make these moments last. I cling to them, but like everything, they fade. I have lived for these moments. They pull me back to the present, and I realize that everything is exactly the way it was meant to be.two.
I like the druggy downtown kids who spray paint walls and trains. I like their lack of training, their primitive technique. I think sometimes it hurts you when you stay too long in school. I think sometimes it hurts you when you’re afraid to be called a fool.three.
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 heartbreak, 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.four.
this is why you should never, ever get your hopes up.
this is why you should see the glass as half empty.
so when the whole thing spills, you aren’t as devastated.

“if i tell you i love you, can i keep you forever?”six.
It’s not that i’m mad at you;
It’s just that I wished & hoped so hard
that you could be the one thing I could truly count on.seven.
The truth is,
everyone is going to hurt you.
you just have to find the ones worth suffering for. eight.
If someone can’t stop doing things that you don’t want them to do, it only means that they love those things more than they love you.
nine.
Sometimes i want to be one of those girls who nothing seems to upset them. But when i think about it, they’ve still got a lot of growing up to do.
ten.
You know he loves you when he doesn’t have to unbutton your shirt to see your heart.
eleven.
Don’t make anyone your everything because once they’re gone, you have nothing.
twelve.
People hold on to things because they fear nothing that great will ever happen to them again.
thirteen.
Maybe the past is like an anchor holding us back. Maybe, you have to let go of who you were to become who you will be.
