Love Joansz

“Desire makes everything blossom; possession makes everything wither and fade.”

“Even when I am alone, I have real good company - dreams and imaginations and pretendings.”

“And then I realized at that moment when I just wanted to cry, I had no one to turn to. I had no one who I know would be willing to listen to me; to help me. I had exhausted them all already. And now there’s no one left. I have no one else to turn to. I don’t want to bother them with my problems anymore; these people who claim to be my friends with real lives and no real problems, who are probably out right now somewhere having a good time with their friends while I sit here alone in the dark almost in tears. When I realized everybody I used to go to was virtually gone, I truly felt alone. And sadly, I want to get used to it. Because that’s the way I fear it’s going to be.”

“Sometimes, you do things and you do them not because you’re thinking but because you’re feeling. Because you’re feeling too much. And you can’t always control the things you do when you’re feeling too much.”

“Deep feelings always mean more than they are capable of saying.”

“A writer is someone for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.”

“The stars tell us to shine; the world tells us we are broken.”

“Why do we own so many things when we don’t need them? What is their purpose? I think the answer is quite clear: We’re desperate to convey our own worth, our own value to others. We use objects to tell people just how valuable we are.”

“Just because something doesn’t last forever, it doesn’t mean it wasn’t meaningful while it did last. It doesn’t mean it wasn’t important.”

“If you feel lost, you just have to start trying anything and everything. Only action brings change. You can’t just sit there and overthink it.”
