Because perfection would make this all too easy, wouldn’t it? And I believe nothing worth having in this life will be easy.

In a world full of maybes; maybe you just need to keep on dating.

We love like no one else does.

Slow is sometimes exactly what your heart needs. A break from all the swelling and breaking.

Never allow those who are jaded to try and jade you. Keep your head high and your expectations even higher.

I’ve come to realise that the most genuinely beautiful women who grace this earth are the ones who believe that they are. They don’t give a damn what anyone else thinks, because they realise that the only person they truly need to impress is themselves.

Are you still looking for those old pieces to mend it back together again? Are you looking for me to give you those pieces? Because if you are, it pains me to tell you that I can’t give them to you.

This might sound like a list of nothings to you, but this list right here, it means everything to me.

Promise not to take us for granted. Promise to nurture, and to work on our love always.

They say it’s about loving someone’s flaws. Loving someone because they are a painting of beautifully unique imperfections. But when do you finally hear that their heart is the one that beats in harmony with yours?

You have to fall in love with yourself, first and foremost. You need to be whole on your own. Don’t purposely leave yourself incomplete, naively believing that someone else is meant to fill in your blank spaces.

I’m going to tell the world how deeply I feel for you, for I have never been a girl who likes to deal in secrets.
