Stress isn’t just about nail biting or trembling hands or shaky voices or clenched teeth. Stress can get the best of you sometimes and leave you completely paralyzed in a situation.

You’ve lived in different countries and cities, but still you’ve never felt like you belong anywhere. You don’t even feel like you belong to your current home. 

Sometimes it’s too hard for us to admit that someone we are so in love with and someone that we care about that much could have done something so awful to us.

Little did I know that looks can fool you.

I hope you get to experience the kind of love that makes you blossom and glow.

Sometimes we give so much to the people around us that we end up with absolutely nothing left. And that’s okay—it happens.

Maybe it’s too late for us right now. Maybe our egos got the best of us this time. Maybe we ended up hurting each other more than actually loving each other, but we realized that when it was too late for us.

These moments are not here to break you or leave you shattered; these moments are here to make you even a better version of yourself and a stronger one. 

I think I loved you because you made me want to be a better person.

I don’t feel bad for feeling the way I do about you, and I know that with time, things will get better.

This feeling is not sadness—it’s absolute nothingness.

Letting yourself fall in love can be one of the hardest things you do.
