Being tender and open is beautiful… Don’t let someone steal your tenderness. Don’t allow the coldness and fear of others to tarnish your perfectly vulnerable beating heart. Nothing is more powerful that allowing yourself to truly be affected by things. Whether it’s a song, a stranger, a mountain, a rain drop, a tea kettle, an article, a sentence, a footstep, feel it all- look around you. All of this is for you. Take it and have gratitude. Give it and feel love.
-Zooey Deschanel
After a significant conversation with a friend of mine, I decided I’m going to stop being so closed off, and try to tone down my cynicism— specifically when it comes to love. I hold so much animosity for the people who have hurt me in the past, and it’s time for me to seriously let it go. Life is too too short for that shit.
