“Remember why all of that happened. Don’t push things away just because they didn’t end up how you wanted them to. Accept that someone has left, accept that you have to let go of the ones that don’t want to be with you. Growth starts not with forgetting but accepting.”

“Love was her nature
and that’s why the sun
sets behind her smile, t
hat’s why her eyes
drown entire oceans,
that’s why her laughter
calms the rain,
when her love pours
and heals all the pain,
when storms, winds
whisper her name,
when touching her lips
feels like a hurricane.
she makes broken
bloom in her light,
she’s the sun to
my dark nights,
she’s nature, wild and free,
loving her, is healing me.”

“I hope, you find the strength to let go of what hurts you. I hope, you realize that pain is simple, what breaks you, won’t heal you. I hope you’ll realize, that love is simple because what really loves you, won’t leave you.”

“The masters according to Nietzsche are the untimely, those who create, who destroy in order to create, not to preserve. Nietzsche says that under the huge earth-shattering events are tiny silent events, which he likens to the creation of new worlds: there once again you see the presence of the poetic under the historical.”
