If I’d stopped believing that my life would eventually get better, I don’t think I would have survived high school.

I want deeper connections with the people around me. I need to reach out more. Because not everyone leaves. Sometimes if you reach out, the person you’re trying to reach will be right there waiting.

Maybe but... if being impulsive means ruining other people's lives, then maybe I should just stay the same.

That's the cool thing about having a best friend. They know what your pain feels like already, so you don't have to explain it.

When someone rips your heart out, there's nothing you can do to change how you feel about them. You just have to keep feeling that way until it goes away. Until it never does.

Last words of wisdom.If your parents are screewed up, don't turn into them. Use them as an example of what not to be- be yourself instead. you can overcome your fears, you can change, you can make your life into what you've always wanted it to be. Maybr not tomorrow but soon. So hang in.

You can’t ever know the real anybody unless you’re friends with them. And sometimes not even then.
