“And once the storm is over, you won’t remember how you made it through, how you managed to survive. You won’t even be sure, whether the storm is really over. But one thing is certain. When you come out of the storm, you won’t be the same person who walked in. That’s what this storm’s all about.”
— Haruki Murakami (via quotemadness)

Opening up yourself to someone is one of the bravest things you could ever do. Because it’s never easy to be vulnerable, when all you ever wanted was to build the strongest wall—all around you.

Losing him felt a little bit like grieving the death of a loved one only there’s no visitation, no funeral, no gravestone, no “I’m so sorry for your loss”- but instead a bed imprinted in the shape of my body, a pillow filled with tears and whispers of desperation, and remarks like “there’s plenty of fish in the sea.” And in both scenarios I’m left sitting here wishing the one I lost was right next to me.

“I think it hurts the worst when you stop thinking about them. But regardless of how much time passes little pieces of them still find their way back into your life. Whether you laugh and it sounds just like theirs or you order a drink that you used to get with them. Or you rewatch a movie you all saw together. No matter how hard you push them away they always make their way back and that’s when it hurts the most”

“I have to change. I know that’s what this really comes down to. I have to own the things that have happened in my life, mistakes and all, and somehow make them make me better. How do I just stop being who I’ve been, though? How do I undo decades of lies that I’ve told myself and believed from others?”
