rules i live by

  • Always ask why you’re doing something before you do it. Then find a better way.
  • Remember who you are by remembering who you love.
  • You can never really fall out of love with someone. You can get back, but you still fell, and falls bruise.
  • Music revitalizes and should fill the cracks of any day.
  • Trauma shows up randomly, in weird, unexpected places. Stay alert.
  • Stop avoiding and start facing head on.
  • Think about what your enemies are doing, some, but live your life as if you didn’t.
  • Ask yourself every morning what the best-case scenario would look like today. Make it happen.
  • Water your plants.
  • Take a chance on anyone and give a second chance to a quarter of those people.
  • Misery loves company, so if you find yourself spending your time with miserable people, consider the possibility that you deserve not just people that are better, but a life that is better.
  • When a thought terrifies you, chew on it, swallow it, and act on it.
  • Texts don’t bring love. Smiles and long, silent hugs do.
