My father had taught me to be nice first, because you can always be mean later, but once you’ve been mean to someone, they won’t believe the nice anymore. So be nice, be nice, until it’s time to stop being nice, then destroy them.

“When we meet someone and fall in love, we have a sense that the whole universe is on our side. And yet if something goes wrong, there is nothing left! How is it possible for the beauty that was there only minutes before to vanish so quickly? Life moves very fast. It rushes from heaven to hell in a matter of seconds.”
— Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes (via coral)
It’s not just other people we need to forgive. Sometimes we need to forgive ourselves.

You can’t force someone to comprehend a message that they’re not yet ready to receive, but never underestimate the power of planting a seed.

The most beautiful feeling in the world is to have someone who has seen your worst side and stayed.
I wish words could exist that describe the indescribable pain I feel every day. But they don’t. So I use the same words again and again. Losing hope and hoping for relief at the same time.
I hope someday or in some other life we’ll make it right and the feelings will be mutual.
