Even after everything, I still believe this.

I believed I was made of stone, not anymore.
“I’m much softer than people think. I don’t present to the world an emotional face. I’m pretty good at self-control, but I am easily moved.”
— Christopher Lee
I realized something recently as I read a manga, that I love to read and watch dramas and comedies in which friendships and love stories are shown but as I look at my life and how my friendships and romances turned out, I don't feel like doing any of that and that fiction is an amazing way to enjoy the unreal to forget the pain of the real relationships which are hard to deal with and maintain and even if you try your best it just doesn't work out. Maybe it's not true for everyone and maybe I am a narcissistic idiot but I have found out that being alone and being lonely differ a lot and sometimes it takes a lot to understand that.
Judging someone is easy but judging yourself is the hardest.
Who are you to judge the life I live? I know I'm not perfect — and I don't live to be — but before you start pointing fingers.. make sure you hands are clean!

Quarantine made me realize this.
“I hate most people. And I don’t want to, it’s an awful way to be. But the human race gives me no comfort. I find myself turning to books and films for comfort still. It’s repulsive, because one’s life consists of people, not things.”
— Morrissey (via quotemadness)
“The scariest thing about the world is knowing it goes on when you’re not there.”

Words to live by.
Woah.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down 'happy'. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.

Too relatable

“Destruction can be beautiful to some people. Don’t ask me why. It just is. And if they can’t find anything to destroy, they destroy themselves.”
— John Knowles (via quotemadness)
I never thought of myself as the protagonist of any story. I just thought myself as a side character and that made people treat me like shit and me taking it without any complain but finally I understand that if I consider myself a side character I don't have to please everyone like the protagonist or keep good relationship with them. I don't have to matter to them to matter to myself. I can be happy with myself even with the feeling of being little alone.
Sometimes I think that we are so affected by movies and tv and the false reality in which we see all the characters telling the protagonists why they matter and sometimes explain the meaning behind their actions and the protagonists just find themselves and does what they expect of him/her or just does his/her own thing but in real life this shit doesn't happen. People just tell you what you want to hear and not what you need to hear and they don't care what's the meaning behind your actions or how you are and no one shows this except a few shows or movies and that really confuses us because what we all are waiting for, the epiphany or realization it just doesn't come. You have to think about all your actions and choices of all time and learn through them that why you did what you did and who you really are. And it's not gonna be one specific thing because humans are too complex of a species to fit into a word, sentence or anything that can be explained.
Wow

Damn. Few quotes can your struggle real.
“I am more sensitive than other people. Things that other people would not notice awaken a distinct echo in me, and in such moments of lucidity, when I look at myself, I see that I am alone, all alone, all alone.”
— Henri Barbusse
Yes, terrible things happen, but sometimes those terrible things—they save you.

“I hadn’t realized how much I’d been needing to meet someone I might be able to say everything to.”

“We’re all lonely for something we don’t know we’re lonely for. How else to explain the curious feeling that goes around feeling like missing somebody we’ve never even met.”
— David Foster Wallace
Shit.
“We never love anyone. What we love is the idea we have of someone. It’s our own concept—our own selves—that we love.”
