Forgive others
“Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace.” — Jonathan Lockwood Huie
This site is a collection of quotes I have discovered throughout the years and a few thoughts that have crossed my mind but never owned a blog to actually put them to words to.
Learned in therapy
I’ve come across this tweet and it had a few replies that I wanted to store because I think they hold very true meaning.
A few fascinating replies: sometimes you don’t deserve closure. the people you’ve hurt don’t owe you forgiveness even after you’ve changed for the better. some bridges are burned forever, and sometimes it’s better that way for all parties. you have to move forward and be better for you, not someone else.
Why storms are named after people
“Do not fall in love with people like me. I will take you to museums, and parks, and monuments, and kiss you in every beautiful place, so that you can never go back to them without tasting me like blood in your mouth. I will destroy you in the most beautiful way possible. And when I leave you will finally understand, why storms are named after people.”

Too Late For What
I am in my late 20s and feel I have wasted a lot of time. Is it too late for me to achieve something worthwhile?
Too late for what?
If you slept through your 26th birthday, it’s too late for you to experience that. It’s too late for you to watch “LOST” in its premiere broadcast. (Though, honestly, you didn’t miss much.) It’s too late for you to fight in the Vietnam War.
