I love those friends that get angrier abt situations you’re in than you do
it's a different kind of intimacy when you can tell that someone isn't feeling well while they're doing everything to hide their sadness. they become so familiar, you know their inside so well that their pain is seen by you, and most importantly safe with you
Søren Kierkegaard, Diaries 1813-1855
“Anybody can look at you. It’s quite rare to find someone who sees the same world you see.”
— John Green, Turtles All the Way Down
if we did ask ourselves would the answer even matter we are a person as viewed by the ones around us they make us real otherwise all this could be just a dream
we are reduced to asking others what we are. we never dare to ask ourselves
Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Discourse on Inequality

“All my life, I’ve felt like I belong somewhere that only exits in the depths of my mind – impossible for others to discover.”
