“When you do something noble and beautiful and nobody noticed, do not be sad. For the sun every morning is a beautiful spectacle and yet most of the audience still sleeps.”

Reading was my escape and my comfort, my consolation, my stimulant of choice: reading for the pure pleasure of it, for the beautiful stillness that surrounds you when you hear an author’s words reverberating in your head.



Sometimes you climb out of bed in the morning and you think, I’m not going to make it, but you laugh inside — remembering all the times you’ve felt that way.



{ It's You }

When I see you, the world stops. It stops and all that exists for me is you and my eyes staring at you. There’s nothing else. No noise, no other people, no thoughts or worries, no yesterday, no tomorrow. The world just stops, and it is a beautiful place, and there is only you.



I wanted you to have the most important thing anyone can have; hope. Believing in even the possibility of a happy ending is a very powerful thing.

{ Be Humbled }

Don’t ever sell yourself short. Stand tall. Never be ashamed of who you are. You are beautiful, you are loved. You are needed. You are worth it. Promise me you won’t forget that. Promise me you won’t let your scars define who you are. Let your trials shape you. Let your victories humble you.



{ Smiling Is The Best Medicine }

Making somebody smile is the easier medicine to break worries or sadness. Think back the last time you smiled, did you instantly feel happier? Did you feel more present and alive? That’s why there’s a rule to smile at least 3 times a day even if your not feeling it because it still lifts your mood a bit.

“Butterflies can’t see their wings. They can’t see how truly beautiful they are, but everyone else can. People are like that as well.”



{ Once Upon A Time }

In fairy tales, it begins with, ‘Once upon a time… and they lived happily ever after,’ but in real life it begins with ‘They lived happily ever after… once upon a time.’

I once believed fairy tales were the way of life, and it is…at least for a moment, but we have to work harder to hold on that moment and eventually we will get a happy ending. But people’s happy ending are not the same with movies or even other people. Because even if everything bad happens there is always hope. And when you’ve lost that hope yourself, somebody else is praying for you. There are millions and billions of people in the world, somebody is always praying for goodness.

And also, we need to believe in ourselves because if we don’t, then how are you going to heal?

{ In Love }

“I didn’t plan on falling in love with you, and I doubt if you planned on falling in love with me. But once we met, it was clear that neither of us could control what was happening to us. We fell in love, despite our differences, and once we did, something rare and beautiful was created. For me, love like that has happened only once and that’s why every minute we spent together has been seared in my memory. I’ll never forget a single moment of it.”

She wanted him…more than he ever knew. And with just a few seconds, it could make her feel like a thousand years of being with him…it was not enough..but she was willing to take it anyways because every second and moment is a piece of life for her.

{ Streets Of The World }

I was thinking how amazing it was that the world contained so many lives. Out in these streets people were embroiled in a thousand different matters, money problems, love problems, school problems. People were falling in love, getting married, going to drug rehab, learning how to ice-skate, studying for exams, trying on clothes, getting their hair-cut and getting born.

And in some houses people were getting old and sick and were dying, leaving others to grieve. It was happening all the time, unnoticed, and it was the thing that really mattered.

To dream anything that you want to dream. That’s the beauty of the human mind. To do anything that you want to do. That is the strength of the human will. To trust yourself to test your limits. That is the courage to succeed
