"I think that's what happens when you've lived a lonely childhood. You get too attached to people as you get older, in the hope that they'll give you the care and love that you missed out on and never leave you." Ig-typicalabdullah

When you get older, you value things differently. You can see how precious it is to have peace of mind, to sleep with your heart feeling at ease. You can see the true price of everything and everyone in your life. Time slows down and you can savor moments much better. Because the older you get, the more you understand. How everything is temporary. How everything is just passing. Even yourself. And there's nothing for you to do. Except to enjoy the present. And pass in this life in peace. -Metanoia

You know what's scary about this age? You can't even enjoy your down time. You're socially convinced that every moment you're spending not doing anything is wasted time. That you always should be working towards something. We forget that it's okay to have a breather and simply take time to yourself.

I have long embraced that I feel things so very deeply. Love, as if my heart would burst. Sorrow, as many agonizing deaths. Joy, as though the moon were in my arms or the entire galaxy in my chest.  And so I know, that my immortal soul is far greater than my mortal body. And perhaps, when I have returned to my forgotten home, I'll look back at this world and say that was one helluva ride. ~Suhaib Rumi

It sucks that we miss people like that. You think you've accepted that someone is out of your life, that you've grieved and it's over, and then bam. One little thing, and you feel like you've lost that person all over again. -Rachel Hawkins, Demongla

You don't ask people with knives in their stomachs what would make them happy; happiness is no longer the point. It's all about survival; it's all about whether you pull the knife out and bleed to death or keep it in. -Nick Hornby

You know, everytime people say that I have changed, it takes me back to my younger self, the one who was afraid of change, the one who was deeply involved in attachments and the one who used to be overly invested in emotions. Yes, I surely have changed. And I'm glad that I did. But if you ask  me, I couldn't have asked for anything better, but that exact silly child, who went through things alone and learnt to grow on it's own. ~Smaraki Sarangi

I'm no longer what i used to be, this world has changed me alot, i wish to be my old self again, to smile without any grief again, to be alive again. -روح

Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal. -Albert Camus

There are some people that we didn't forget, but we don't smile any more when they're mentioned. – Nizar Qabbani

"I have enough memories to drink coffee all  by myself in a cafe so empty yet so crowded  with the ghosts of those who have left but always stayed." - Mahmoud Darwish

Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost. -Khalil Gibran

Isn't that beautiful? Isn't that beautiful? To not have to remember anything? -AmbivertSyed
