"I said I’d never write about you again,
but I suppose I’m just as good at lying
as I am at leaving.
I’ve forgotten what your voice sounds like.
I always criticized you for not letting go,
as if the weights around my ankles
weren’t made of my faults
and everything I wish I could take back.
You told me today that
you’ve found love again.
I hope he finds flowers growing
from all the cracks I created
in your heart.
I hope he sees galaxies
in the darkened voids
I left behind your eyes.
I hope he understands
that you are full of splintered doors
on rusted hinges
that need to be loved and not repaired.
I hope he is nothing like me.
I’m sorry my words left scars.
I’m sorry my silence
reopened them constantly.
I’m sorry I was too busy
loving myself,
instead of loving you."
— I’m sorry I did not know what love meant. (via christopherevan)

Nothing grinds my gears quite like seeing posts with titles like “yoga for a flat tummy!”

Yo, that’s not what yoga’s about, bye.

Anonymous: Can someone with a lot of red acne and scars be pretty?

tsktsks:

of course. I definitely do not have the clearest skin and I have scars, and despite that I’ve learned to find beauty not in how I look but instead by how I think and how I act and how I love. 

Just found this passage and I love it:

You are beautiful. Every little piece of you. Every freckle, every scar, every birth mark, every hair, every flaw you see when you look in mirror. Even more than all of those things, your heart is where true beauty dwells. A heart earnestly seeking after the Lord can be the most beautiful thing in the world. Be encouraged today in remembering that outer, physical beauty will undoubtedly fade, yet a beautiful heart will last forever. You are perfect just as you are. He has made and formed you as His beloved child to be exactly who you are. For by one sacrifice he has made perfect forever those who are being made holy. Hebrews 10:14. You are perfect. You are beautiful.
