Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
“i sometimes feel empty. not sad, not angry. just empty. and this feeling is so overwhelming, it takes over every single nerve of my body, until i feel it every fucking where.”—
“No matter what you do, you will always be too much for someone, for so many reasons, you’ll either be too big, too annoying, too soft, too loud, too sad, too scared, too mean, too closed off, too you. However, for some reason they all believe you will change for them, that you will apologise for being the person you are and how sad is it that half of us actually do. We listen to what they say, we take all the negative comments and changed our entire being so that a handful of people will likes us, because apparently we all want to be the person everyone loves, that everyone wants to hang out with, the person no one picks on. We end up changing ourselves so much that when we look into the mirror we get confused, because that person in the reflection is meant to be us, but it isn’t. You don’t need to change yourself because someone doesn’t like you, why change every amazing, beautiful thing about yourself just for a handful of people whose opinions don’t matter the slightest, when you can stay the same as you are now and wait for someone else to come along who loves you just for you and not once will ask you to change. You are unique, mysteries, perfect, and beautiful, there isn’t another you on this earth. So why are you focused on destroying that, just to become like everyone else?”— p.s.w // excerpt from a book i’ll never write #148

“Someday I’m gonna have a child. She’s gonna have eyes like mine and such small hands. Just like she’ll need me alive then, she needs me alive now; I can’t say goodbye before I’ve had a chance to say hello.”
“Falling for him would be like cliff diving. It would be either the most exhilarating thing that ever happened to me or the stupidest mistake I’d ever make.”— Colleen Houck
