You can tell a lot about a person by paying attention to the songs they listen to and the books they read.

You know, that’s the thing about us, the over-analytic thinking machines. We play up the worst-case scenarios in our heads so often that we begin to blur the lines between reality and imagination. Hours upon hours in deep thought inevitably takes a toll on our psychological stability. Maybe we all just spend too much time borrowing tomorrow’s worries with our minds continuously asking...
A child can teach an adult three things: to be happy for no reason, to always be...

“Because there’s nothing more beautiful than the way the ocean refuses to stop kissing the shoreline, no matter how many times it’s sent away.”

I have a lot of growing up to do. This whole time I honestly thought I had my life together. I knew what I wanted, how I was going to achieve it, and who I wanted to achieve it with. I thought I could handle situations rationally without any skewed perceptions based on emotions, but in all honestly, I’m pretty damn lost right now. I wonder if it was all a self-fulfilling prophecy when I...

Passion makes a person stop eating, sleeping, working, feeling at peace. A lot of people are frightened because, when it appears, it demolishes all the old things it finds in its path. No one wants their life thrown into chaos. That is why a lot of people keep that threat under control, and are somehow capable of sustaining a house or a structure that is already rotten. They are the engineers of...
I swear, I can never do anything right. At any given moment, someone is always mad at me for doing something wrong. Perfection is what we strive for, but let’s be realistic now—shit can get pretty damn exhausting. I’m only human. I make mistakes. I say things I don’t mean, I do things unintentionally, and my mind is too complex and screwed up to even fathom. I’m only human....
chrawrizard asked: What's your take -- should I do what I enjoy and what makes me happy or what makes more money?
Nothing worse than feeling worthless.
Let the rain wash away,
All the pain of yesterday.
I know my kingdom awaits,
And they’ve forgiven my mistakes.
I’m coming home.

I keep thinking about that last post I just reblogged. My heart feels heavy.

I think part of growing up is realizing that true friends aren’t the ones who text you 24/7, or spend every waking minute with you. As a matter of fact, true friends often times end up being the ones whom you hardly speak to, but they’re the ones who will be there in a heartbeat whenever you need them. True friends realize how crazy you really are, but they embrace you for your true...
I desire the things which will destroy me in the end.

No more tears to cry, and no more blood to bleed.
