Happiness happens when you sit exactly where you are and you choose exactly what you let go of and what you hold on to.

Forgive yourself for saying things that weren’t from the most honest and authentic parts of you.

Check in with them about their day—daily. 

It’s willing to grow without question. 

Remember that you are strong enough to handle everything being thrown your way.

You deserve to feel seen. You deserve to feel heard and have all of your needs met.

You are worthy of love, belonging, and a relationship with both even if you don’t think that you are right now.

You can’t accept fragments of something that you loved with the wholeness of yourself.

You truly aren’t alone. 

I miss feeling like out of all of the places on a map, I am your favorite place to go; I am the place you come home to no matter how far you travel.

When love comes back, show it who you are, where you’ve been, and who you have yet to become.

Date a girl who sees spaces that need tending to and somehow only sees the opportunity for growth, the openness and possibility for things to feel and be better.
