“

Some people are not going to understand your heart, and that’s okay.

“

I am proud of the way my heart keeps beating, keeps believing, keeps fighting. I am proud of who I am.

“

You are more than the ones who couldn’t love you with the same tenacity, who couldn’t promise forever, who couldn’t fight. You are more than a bleeding heart, letting yourself spill for people who don’t see your worth. You are more than this.

“

Give me yourself so that I can love every part of you, so that I can stand beside you when the storms come, so that we can make meaning of this life, even when it hurts.

“

You either all in, or nothing at all—there’s no in-between.

“

You can’t be scared to love again because each love is a new chapter. And damn it, you deserve to write yourself a beautiful story.

“

Who looked at you, and instead of seeing your overabundant brilliance, said that you should be less, do less, feel less?

“

You may be sensitive, but you’re a damn fighter. You’re strong. You have a backbone, a brain, and a heart that is forever absorbing the energy from the people around you.
