Sorry I Am Not Who You Want Me To Be.

I think hugging Krishna would be like coming home. He'd be the perfect height and you could hide your face in his chest and he'll pet your hair and give you a tight hug and you'd sigh in contentment. It would feel like listening to a song and remembering that it's been your favourite all these years and you may have forgotten it for a while but you remember every harmony, every melody, every note, every lyric, every pause. Like a blanket in winter.

“You lived through that, you will live through this too”

Yes, but how many things do I have to live through? How many times do I have to be grateful I made it out alive? When do I get to stop surviving and start thriving?

“What does mine say?“ Newt asked. Thomas pulled the neckline of Newt’s shirt to the side, then leaned over to read the words etched into his skin. “You’re Subject A-five and they called you the Glue”. Newt gave him a startled look. “The Glue?“. Thomas let go of his shirt and stepped back. “Yeah. Probably because you’re kind of the glue that holds us all together.”

“It’s raining let’s go outside” “look out the window, the moon is beautiful” “I finally read the books you’ve been talking so much about, I loved it” “wait stand there , the lighting is amazing” “<3” “I bought you this book, I think you might like it” “oh my, look at all the stars” “let’s go to a bookstore” “I got us some coffee” “here, listen to this” “let’s make a playlist” “this is a horrible idea. I’m in”

focus on YOUR studies. YOUR grades. YOUR hobbies. YOUR job. YOUR life.

Comparing yourself to others can not only cause a distraction, but also damage your mental health.

The Universe will mirror your energy back to you. The quality of your thoughts, your actions, and the words you speak impact the quality of your life. Surround yourself with people who build you up. Ask for help. Pray. Do everything you can to feel good about being alive. The Universe will respond to how you feel in all ways, always.
