epiphanies

Some pithy lines derived from my notes app.

• it's not your desires that make you a bad person, it's your actions
• Nothing lasts forever/nothing ever really ends
• Perhaps I needed someone to see me in a perfect light so I could see it too
• You can't take care of others until you take care of yourself first
• When we're small we worry about expressing ourselves and our needs, but as we grow we care more about what others think/perceive us
• Snow-capped mountains, pine trees, country music, wooden cabins, Pioneer steakhouses, bear spray, moose & other creatures, no Internet --would visit
• don't be malleable / it's not valuable
• somebody notice that i'm trying
• The only speed that matters is how fast you can slow down
• Nobody gives up on their dreams just because it comes with a price (the one thing I heard on the radio before switching to the music station)
• It wasn’t until I woke up in the middle of the night from a series of dreams that I realized how much I despised my thoughts. The phrase “I sleep do that I don’t have to think” really spoke to me at that point.
• “I go back to who I was before, the boy who intrigues, not the boy who satisfies” (Lie With Me)
• You get what you work for, not what you wish for.
• Successful people are always 110% prepared
• It is necessary for one to own things that they call their own that reflect their personality
• human relationships are so magical - I can be swept up in someone’s entire presence
• Getting older - watching the alarms getting earlier and earlier
• I can’t seem to stop staring at my legs / How thick are they? How much do I weigh? / When will I be able to escape…(no longer feeling this thankfully)
