“I liked him right away because he sat at the kitchen table and read books for hours.”— Judith Ortiz Cofer, American History
To go from a smile to serious look. Hero looks good in the either way duh
You aren’t my type, just the way that I am not yours. But that’s why we are good for each other—we are so different, yet we’re the same. You told me once that I bring out the worst in you. Well, you bring out the best in me. I know you feel it, too, Tessa. And yes, I didn’t date, until you. You make me want to date, you make me want to be better. I want you to think I am worthy of you; I want you to want me the way I do you. I want to fight with you, even scream at each other until one of us admits we are wrong. I want to make you laugh, and listen to you ramble about classic novels. I just … I need you. I know I am cruel at times … well, all the time, but that’s only because I don’t know how else to be.” His voice becomes a half whisper, his eyes wild. “This has been me for so long, I have never wanted to be any other way. Until now, until you.”
Hardin Scott [ After, Anna Todd ]
This Book Is A Short Book And I Feel It Is A Gems Of Wisdom. I Really Love This Little Hardcover Book Which Comes With A Small Pendant Which Can Be Used As A Bookmark Or You Can Wear It As A Necklace Too. It Is A Treasure For Every Woman To Reflect On Her Life. This Book Contains Excerpts from the original Anne Morrow Lindbergh bestseller on love, happiness, solitude, and contentment. This was a delightful little book - using shells and the sea to talk about women, their lives, and their relationships.

I may never be happy, but tonight I am content.
— Sylvia Plath, The Unabridged Journals of Sylvia Plath
Because everyone loves someone, and anyone who loves someone has had those desperate nights where we lie awake trying to figure our how we can afford to carry on being human beings. Sometimes that makes us do things that seem ridiculous in hindsight, but which felt like the only way out at the time.
—Fredrik Backman, Anxious People.
I felt like a stranger to myself, like I was no longer living my life but instead being propelled through it by interesting forces beyond my control.
