What I know about living is the pain is never just ours Every time I hurt I know the wound is an echo So I keep a listening to the moment the grief becomes a window When I can see what I couldn’t see before, through the glass of my most battered dream, I watched a dandelion lose its mind in the wind and when it did, it scattered a thousand seeds. So the next time I tell you how easily I come out of my skin, don’t try to put me back in just say here we are together at the window aching for it to all get better

Love is like sunshine. Sometimes you have to get burned to know you were there. I want to know that I'm here.

We have to create; it is the only thing louder than destruction.

Hey, are you a boy or a — never mind, can I have a push on the swing?” And some day, y’all, when we grow up, it’s all gonna be that simple.

Commit to loving yourself completely. It’s the most radical thing you will do in your lifetime.

Forests may be gorgeous but there is nothing more alive than a tree that learns how to grow in a cemetery.

If love did not exist, I would be so goddamn sane.
