Intimacy requires courage because risk is inescapable. We cannot know at the outset how the relationship will affect us. Like a chemical mixture, if one of us is changed, both of us will be. Will we grow in self-actualization, or will it destroy us? The one thing we can be certain of is that if we let ourselves fully into the relationship for good or evil, we will not come out unaffected.
Rollo May, The Courage to Create (via wordsnquotes)
I hope she treats you right.
I hope you stay up all night with her,
because you love the sound of her laugh.
I hope you hold her hand when she walks a little too far,
because you dont want to know how it is without her.
I hope you kiss her a lot,
because us girls like kisses and it makes us feel wanted.
Most of all I hope you love her, all of her, again and again, I hope its just her.Because it was never like that for me.
you’re gonna make her happy (via attractionns)
When we think that something is going to bring us pleasure, we really don’t know what’s going to happen. When we think something is going to give us misery, we don’t know. Letting there be room for not knowing is the most important thing of all. We try to do what we think is going to help. But we don’t know. We never know if we’re going to fall flat or sit up tall. When there’s a big disappointment, we don’t know if that’s the end of the story. It may be just the beginning of a great adventure….Life is like that.
We call something bad; we call it good. But really we just don’t know.

Each of us, famous or infamous, is a role model for somebody, and if we aren’t, we should behave as though we are — cheerful, kind, loving, courteous. Because you can be sure someone is watching and taking deliberate and diligent notes.

thats it
the dad joke to end all dad jokes
When you remember me, it means you have carried something of who I am with you, that I have left some mark of who I am on who you are. It means that you can summon me back to your mind even though countless years and miles may stand between us. It means that if we meet again, you will know me. It means that even after I die, you can still see my face and hear my voice and speak to me in your heart.
