 Je t'aime plus qu'hier mais moins que demain.

~ I love you more than yesterday, but less than I'll love you tomorrow.

~ Ich liebe dich mehr als gestern, aber weniger als morgen.

It's harder to crack

Some may root against you,
but there are others
who root for you.

James Blake "Are You Even Real" - Choreography by Anthony Lee

I spend the day
dreaming of connection

"my future" by Billie Eilish

'Cause I, I'm in love
With my future
Can't wait to meet her
And I, I'm in love
But not with anybody else
Just wanna get to know myself 

I know supposedly I'm lonely now 
Know I'm supposed to be unhappy without someone
But aren't I someone?

Natalie Goldberg

Write what disturbs you,
what you fear,
what you have not been willing to speak about.
Be willing to be split open.

The Catch, 2016

I'm so tired of hearing men say 
they are trying to protect us 
when what that does is take away our choices. 
This is your life. These are your choices to make. 
But they're yours. Not his.

"Charlotte's Web" by E.B. White

What do you mean less than nothing? I don't think there is any such thing as less than nothing. Nothing is absolutely the limit of nothingness. It's the lowest you can go. It's the end of the line. How can something be less than nothing? If there were something that was less than nothing, then nothing would not be nothing, it would be something - even though it's just a very little bit of something. But if nothing is nothing, then nothing has nothing that is less than it is.

"Nobody Speak" by DJ Shadow ft. Run the Jewels

If you're reading this 
release your shoulders from your ears
unclench your jaw and 
remove your tongue from 
the roof of your mouth. 

We physically tend to hold onto stress 
in least noticeable ways. 
Relax.

You are so brave and quiet 
I forget you are suffering.

Real friends build you up when you're insecure and, just as importantly, tear you down when you're arrogant. Real friends call each other out on each other's bullshit. Know why some celebrities become self-centered douchebags out of touch with reality? Well, imagine having 
an entourage full of fake friends that never disagree with you for fear they'll lose you. 
The truth is real friends are willing to risk a friendship to give you a slap of reality.

Brianna Pastor

You say my name and I choke
up, as if my name is a word from 
some forbidden language that
I've never heard spoken aloud.

Emily Marie McBride

i will run to you. 
and i will run 
until i turn to dust, 
if i must. and if that happens, 
the wind will carry me 
until i reach you.

he loves you and it hurts 

you think of everything and nothing 
in the span of a single moment

you think of yourself, and you think of him

you open your mouth, only to suffocate
beneath the weight of words you cannot say

you love him, and it hurts

"What It Means To Become The ‘Fat Friend’" by Your Fat Friend

“How are you,” I said sharply, voice shaking with irritation.

“I’m a little messed up,” he answered.

“No, you ask me.”

“What?”

[...]

So: be ashamed but confident, doomed but upbeat, abused but unaffected, unbothered by reminders of our own impending deaths.

[...] 

I want to learn a new language of friendship, and a new kind of fullness. 
I hope we can learn together.

Kingdom, 2019

Das bleibt dann wohl ein Traum, mein Kleiner.
Vergiss deine Träume. Solche wie dich hab ich zu Hauf gesehen.
Träume nützen dir auf dem Schlachtfeld gar nichts.
Träumer sind die Ersten, die in einer Schlacht tragisch zu Grunde gehen.
Träume sind nichts.

Was weiß einer wie du schon von Träumen?
Sie helfen einem aufzustehen und sie treiben einen an.
Träume machen stark, darum träumt man.
Träume machen stark, darum glaube ich an sie.
Du besiegst mich nicht.

Dann träum weiter.

"What happens when you call your fat friend beautiful" by Your Fat Friend

Beautiful, for better or worse, often means loved. 
Fat people are so rarely told we're either. As with telling me you love me, only tell me I'm beautiful if you mean it. And challenge yourself to mean it. Recognize the way it stretches you to call a fat person beautiful, not as an exception, but as a shifting, growing rule. Feel all the things you are rejecting by saying such a simple, common word.

"One day I'll learn how to breathe" by e.r.

My lungs were never meant for breathing
Screaming perhaps, heaving, sobbing even
Just something more violent
Than a simple breath
