"I want to be the best version of myself for anyone who is going to someday walk into my life and need someone to love them beyond reason."
"I can do this… I can start over. I can save my own life and I’m never going to be alone as long as I have stars to wish on and people to still love."
"Stop trying to be less of who you are. Let this time in your life cut you open and drain all of the things that are holding you back."
"I’ve always seen this in you, ever since you were a little girl — this hunger to love other people into their highest selves and it’s what has made me irreversibly and just so forever in love with you."
"I look out into the water and up deep into the stars. I beg the sparkling lanterns of light to cure me of myself — my past and the kaleidoscope of mistakes, failures and wrong turns that have stacked unbearable regret upon my shoulders."
"Being a Dream Girl is never going to be about what you look like or how much you weigh. After all, our physical appearances are just reflections of our inner worlds. What makes you a Dream Girl is your emotional sensitivity, your self-awareness, and your ability to communicate who you are effectively and compassionately in the world."
