"Your flaws are beautiful. They’re what make you stand out. Don’t try to be normal, perfect, striving to be something or someone that you will never accomplish. Be annoying, be quirky, be different. In truth, it takes a hell of a lot more strength to resist, than to go along with the flow. Stray from the path. What anyone else thinks doesn’t matter. Let them be boring, let them be the same, as unnoticeable as the people around them. Wear flowers in your hair, mismatching socks, and thousands of multi-colored bracelets. Press all those damn buttons in the elevator, and piss off everyone around you. Have fun now, because there’s always plenty of time to be boring in the future." - Andrea Chiang
“Relationships are never easy. Some days you’re going to wake up and that love you know you have for the person in the bed next to you, isn’t going to come so naturally. We always say “no one told us it was going to be this hard” but they did. We choose not to listen because it seems so unreasonable that one day, you will find yourself doubting your love for that person. The only way you can make a relationship last is if you work at it every day and never give up on it. Because if you fight and argue and quarrel with that person and still can’t imagine leaving them, then you love them. And that’s the kind of love that’s forever.”
