People are gonna tell you who you are your whole life. You just gotta punch back and say, ''No, this is who I am.'' You want people to look at you differently? Make them! You want to change things, you're gonna have to go out there and change them yourself, because there are no fairy godmothers in this world.

I love unmade beds. i love when people are drunk and crying and cannot be anything but honest in that moment. i love the look in people's eyes when they realize they're in love. I love the way people look when they first woke up and they've forgotten their surroundings. i love the gasp people take when their favorite character dies. i love when people close their eyes and drift somewhere in the clouds. i fall in love with people and their honest moments all the time. I fall in love with their breakdowns and their smeared makeup and their daydreams. honesty is just too beautiful to ever put into words.
