“And I fear that my place gets taken by some other one, very lucky and not too shy, who flirts with your eyes while I’m the one who’s crazy about them.” ー Nizar Qabbani

A note found in a Syrian boy’s diary:

“When the war is over in my country, we will close Syria’s doors and we will put a banner that says: (No Entry). We will shed tears of joy alone, just like how we suffered our grief alone.”

The person you marry is the person you fight with. The house you buy is the house you repair. The dream job you take is the job you stress over. Everything comes with an inherent sacrifice -whatever makes us feel good will also inevitably make us feel bad. What we gain is also what we lose. What creates our positive experiences will define our negative experiences.

Mark Manson, The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck (via awelltraveledwoman)
