I’m Not Complicated, I’m Just A Pisces

We are sometimes a lot to handle, but we are not complicated. We are sewn together with emotion and sensitivity, filled with heart and passion for the people and projects we take interest in. We love. We embrace. We open. We trust.

You Want Him, But He’s Not What You Need

He’s comfortable, he’s what you’ve known, he’s what you want. But he’s not what you need. Because he’s a man who cannot give his full self to you; he’s a man who can’t commit.

If Nothing Else, Smile

Smile. Not because your life is perfect and everything is together and all your pain is healed, but because you are alive, and that is enough.
