If you think my room is a mess
you should take a look
at my brain....
We are what we love to read, and when we admit to loving a book, we admit that the book represents some aspect of ourselves truly, whether it is that we are suckers for romance or pining for adventure or secretly fascinated by crime.
Nina Sankovitch, Tolstoy and the Purple Chair: My Year of Magical Reading
(via books-n-quotes)
And kid, youโve got to love yourself. Youโve got wake up at four in the morning, brew black coffee, and stare at the birds drowning in the darkness of the dawn. Youโve got to sit next to the man at the train station whoโs reading your favorite book and start a conversation. Youโve got to come home after a bad day and burn your skin from a shower. Then youโve got to wash all your sheets until they smell of lemon detergent you bought for four dollars at the local grocery store. Youโve got to stop taking everything so goddam personally. You are not the moon kissing the black sky. Youโve got to compliment someones crooked brows at an art fair and tell them that their eyes remind you of green swimming pools in mid July. Youโve got to stop letting yourself get upset about things that wonโt matter in two years. Sleep in on Saturday mornings and wake yourself up early on Sunday. Youโve got to stop worrying about what youโre going to tell her when she finds out. Youโve got to stop over thinking why he stopped caring about you over six months ago. Youโve got to stop asking everyone for their opinions. Fuck it. Love yourself, kiddo. Youโve got to love yourself.

I WOULD SUPPORT A LAW THAT REQUIRED DONALD TRUMP TO BE PERMANENTLY DEPORTED FROM THE UNITED STATES
Things to look forward to:
Sometimes youโre 23 and standing in the kitchen of your house making breakfast and brewing coffee and listening to music that for some reason is really getting to your heart. Youโre just standing there thinking about going to work and picking up your dry cleaning. And also more exciting things like books youโre reading and trips you plan on taking and relationships that are springing into existence. Or fading from your memory, which is far less exciting. And suddenly you just donโt feel at home in your skin or in your house and you just want home but โMomโsโ probably wouldnโt feel like home anymore either. There used to be the comfort of a number in your phone and ears that listened everyday and arms that were never for anyone else. But just to calm you down when you started feeling trapped in a five-minute period where nostalgia is too much and thoughts of this person you are feel foreign. When you realize that youโll never be this young again but this is the first time youโve ever been this old. When you canโt remember how you got from sixteen to here and all the same feel like sixteen is just as much of a stranger to you now. The song is over. The coffeeโs done. Youโre going to breathe in and out. Youโre going to be fine in about five minutes.
