If you can’t save your own life, is it even worth saving?

I want someone whose heart is big enough to hold me.

I don't want to do anything. I don't even want to start this day because then I'll just be expected to finish it.

I’m sort of… coming off a bad relationship”“When did it end?”“Slightly before it started.

So, what if, instead of thinking about solving you whole life, you just think about adding additional good things. One at a time. Just let your pile of good things grow.

What did he have to mope about, really? What more did he want?...Love. Purpose. Those are the things that you can't plan for. Those are the things that just happen. And what if they don't happen? Do you spend your whole life pining for them? Waiting to be happy?

I had this whole plan when I graduated high school: I was going to go to college, date a few guys, and then meet THE guy at the end of my freshman year, maybe at the beginning of my sophomore year. We'd be engaged by graduation and married the next year. And then, after some traveling, we'd start our family. Four kids, three years apart. I wanted to be done by the time I was 35.

You shouldn’t need a staff of people larger than your own family. We don’t live in a manor.

They fell in love the way you do the first time, when you're young, and you feel as if you have nothing and everything to lose
