It happens to everyone as they grow up. You find out who you are and what you want, and then you realize that people you’ve known forever don’t see things the way you do. So you keep the wonderful memories, but find yourself moving on.
Nicholas Sparks (via anditslove)(Source: katelizabeth, via hercoralcloset)
The belief that unhappiness is selfless and happiness is selfish is misguided. It’s more selfless to act happy. It takes energy, generosity, and discipline to be unfailingly lighthearted, yet everyone takes the happy person for granted. No one is careful of his feelings or tries to keep his spirits high. He seems self-sufficient; he becomes a cushion for others. And because happiness seems unforced, that person usually gets no credit.
Gretchen Rubin, The Happiness Project (via larmoyante)
“It was good, and nothing good is truly lost. It stays part of a person, becomes part of their character. So part of you goes everywhere with me. And part of me is yours, forever.”—Rosamunde Pilcher, The Shell Seekers
Once I was introduced to that happiness, the kind you brought, it kind of just stuck. I left whatever I thought was my everything so I could focus on you, but it still isn’t a loss. It’s like magic that I never felt lonely again. I’m sorry though if my mind constantly takes your memories like a drug.
I wouldn’t mind crossing paths with you once more, but that’s only because you’re a really neat guy who I understood well enough. I always wonder about greeting you every time May comes.
It’s April again. I remember that first greet so well.
I wanna live somewhere I can spoil myself with good food. Managing my cravings is a real and constant frustration. Why did this happen to me. And I hate that good food mustn’t usually come very cheap around here. It’s ridiculous.
Suddenly got back to coding since our game requirement. But then it didn’t last long. Now I remember why I hated it. “Coding is a way of life,” you say. More like a dead way of life.
I feel like I’m wasting my time coding for machines. Like, even if I get it done, it doesn’t feel like an achievement. It really only gets to me after having spent “too long” working on something.
