“Maybe love is like rain. Sometimes gentle, sometimes torrential, flooding, eroding, joyful, steady, filling the earth, collecting in underground springs. When it rains, when we love, life grows.”

you’re not as awkward as you think you are. you’re not as terrible as you think you are. your perception of yourself may not be accurate. you’re lovely.

you can only grow when you’ve cut yourself loose from the things you were holding onto that hurt you all the while
I don't know who needs to hear this but stop seeing yourself as inferior and holding yourself to such higher standards than you do everyone around you. youre allowed to mess up and make mistakes and be imperfect and silly and annoying sometimes. things aren't automatically worse just because youre doing them

I find the concept of growing in love so much prettier than love at first sight?? like one day you look at someone and you suddenly realize you see them in a different light than you did the night before. that’s falling.

i love myself in the morning. i love myself at night. i love myself when i fail. i love when myself when i don’t feel beautiful. i love myself when i’m sad. i love myself when i feel like giving up. i love myself on the weekends. i love myself when i preserve. i love myself when i’m scared. i love myself when i grow.
