"stay like that. love people endlessly. and when it doesn’t work out? you’ll heal and you’ll learn to love again. i know that it’s hard to give up everything and still have hope in nothing. but you are not nothing. you have a beautiful and giant heart and no matter how much you think it’s broken, you’ll find a way to love again."

"

‘Broken people are rough around the edges. They are beautiful in the way that means something. Like the sun. It lights up the entire earth, but it’s burning inside.’
‘If I’m burning inside then you can’t touch me. I’ll hurt you.’

‘Think of me as a star. I burn bright too. And we can both be lights, burning, next to each other.’

"

"She wasn’t bitter. She was sad, though. But it was a hopeful kind of sad. The kind of sad that just takes time."
