“You are most powerful when you are most silent. People never expect silence. They expect words, motion, defense, offense, back and forth. They expect to leap into the fray. They are ready, fists up, words hanging leaping from their mouths. Silence? No.”
— Alison McGhee, All Rivers Flow To The Sea
you really just have to say 'it is what it is' and move on. like. completely move on. focus on what's important but also just have a nice life. play with your pet, go outside with someone somewhere, see a movie in theaters or borrow/buy a book, sit in the sunlight, get a plant, get a recipe, wear a fragrance, dance, talk to ppl, do pilates/sports/walking/swimming/biking, go somewhere new, start a casual or compelling project, compliment a stranger genuinely, call someone, drive for a while. remember that you're here. you're important because you're alive and that's enough
Many situations feel hopeless, but for those who know God and believe in His faithfulness, there’s always a reason for hope as we trust His power and grace to carry us through.

“I will love the light for it shows me the way, yet I will endure the darkness because it shows me the stars.”
— Og Mandino
Sometimes, carrying on, just carrying on, is the superhuman achivement.
Albert Camus
Y entonces acepté que yo no podré volver a amar a alguien, no tengo la capacidad, porque siempre estará ese miedo latente a que me lastimen de nuevo y no puedo permitir que alguien vuelva a jugar con el amor que le entrego. Prefiero darlo todo a Dios y dejar que la vida me enseñe a amarme a mi misma cada día.
It's like I'm trying to silence the loudest love and it's a fucking tragedy.
Chloe Frayne
But it's true, you can fall in love with people's souls. With peoples gestures, hearts and morals. With people's smiles and with people's minds—without exchanging a single kiss. and without saying a single word.
