Destroy the idea that you have to be constantly working or grinding in order to be successful. Embrace the concept that rest, recovery, and reflection are essential parts of the progress towards a successful and ultimately happy life.

“I wanted him to love me, god I did. But sometimes that’s not enough, and this time it wasn’t enough. I never wanted to break a heart, not his heart but somewhere in between the I love yous and I need yous I got lost in translation. His words were like the drugs I used. Addicting, but somehow they left you feeling emptier than before. Unsatisfied when the initial feeling wore off. I was always prepared for heartbreak, for dealing with the numbness, the hurt. But no one ever prepared me for the way breaking someone else would feel. They never told me breaking his heart would make drinking vodka taste like water. That seeing him shatter would make everything go dark. The way everything just drained from his face. The way his eyes dulled and went distant. That’ll haunt me. But fuck, the way he cracked a smile and told me he understood felt like a million tiny shards of glass embedded themselves in my lungs. I swear I’ll never breathe the same way again.”

“I love you, and I love us. But I’m done. I’m unhappy, and so are you. The only thing keeping us together is nostalgia and habit. So I’m leaving. I’m walking out on us, because I don’t see the point in chasing after what used to be and what could’ve been, but isn’t.”
— I just hope I don’t regret this later. I hope neither of us do.
