“Cause you never think that the last time is the last time. You think there will be more. You think you have forever, but you don’t.”

reminders
“you are allowed to be proud of the little things you achieve; like becoming better in a video game, baking really good pancakes or just getting out of bed today - not everything you do has to be world changing” - @gentle-reminder
“Don’t ever do something simply because someone else forces you into it. At times, people may try to make you do things that you may not want to do. However, you must respect yourself and only contribute to what you feel comfortable with doing.” - @thepowerwithin
“There will be other tests. Other assignments. Other jobs. But there might not be another chance to dance with your sister on her wedding day. You may never get another opportunity to sing along to all your favourite songs at a concert. There are no guarantees. So, forget the test. Miss the assignment. Skip the work day. Life isn’t made by those things. It’s made by living. By experiencing and enjoying every thing we can while we’re still here.” - @ifthenightcouldtalk
“Respect yourself enough to walk away from anything that no longer serves you, grows you, or makes you happy.” - @psychofactz
I have so so so many more tips that I’d love to share, so perhaps I’ll make a part two next month aimed at a different audience, who knows? In the meantime feel free to ask me for advice or send me a message if you ever need anything! I’ll leave you with a sweet little meditation gif below :3
Much love xx -wil

I’m forever questioning someone’s intentions.
She will be loved.......I want to make you feel beautiful...........look for the girl with a broken smile.........and she will be loved.........................
Maroon 5
Sometimes I fell asleep with my pillow being wet from tears. Sometimes I fell asleep with blood in my sheets because I thought that was the way to survive.

This song used to help me so much, really made me think about how I’d got into that state of mind and really empowered me to get back to the ‘old me’. I hope it can help some other people, it makes me really emotional now just remembering back to how I was feeling when I first watched this.
