They feed you
With negative energy
And You’ll end up feeling like nothing

Beginnings are the things that we should always search for

We are always surrounded by people who don’t understand us
We always give chances to the people who don’t deserve our attention

But maybe

Someday
We’ll realize
That we should only understand ourselves
And we should give ourselves the chance to start again
after every failure

You should always
seek refuge in yourself
not in others

We need to take care of ourselves
not matter how hard it is seems
It doesn't have to be majestic
It should get ugly
Because starting something new
isn't easy, it is terrifying
But trust me when you get there
it's worth it
It's a lot of work
But think of how much you need it
How much it is important to your soul,
to your body, to your confidence
You're not alone in this
Everything takes time
Look around you
Even nature takes time to grow
Do not expect progress to
happen suddenly
You have to keep going
no matter the time
For what counts is our
experiences , how much we have
felt, even suffered to accomplish ourselves

How you deal with yourself
When you’re not okay
Speaks a lot about you

In 60 days
I tried my best to rediscover
my country Lebanon
It was weird
to experience
the other side
that I didn’t see before
the side
where everything is okay
where youth still governed an
important part of society
But most of all
to see how your school friends
have blossomed into mentally mature human beings
who aren’t afraid to show their fragile souls to the world

This time
I wanted to feel everything
feel the heat
feel the human interaction
feel the pain, the sadness of leaving
but also feel the joy
of recovering from insignificant
and useless scars

How much
was it important
To change your room,
your wall hangings
the ideas in your mind
but to keep your childhood
best friends close
no matter the distance
and no matter the time

What is love?
To act around someone
as if you're totally alone

What is hate?
To keep a distance
from people you used to love

Keep space from the people who drain your energy
Stop seeking approval from everyone
Accept life even when it gets boring
And you lose the meaning of it sometimes

Why do we do this to
Ourselves
Torture ourselves with
Things that we can’t control
What is it that makes life
Threatening
Devasting
Completely
Meaningless
It’s the ideas in our head
The bad thoughts that accompany us
everyday
We can change
It’s not a destiny
It’s how you deal
How you work on yourself
To tolerate pain
Sadness
And every little thing
That can connect us to a past
That will never happen again
Do not say
I was happy back then
But more
I choose to be happy
To be satisfied by boring
Routinized moments
I choose to make magic
Out of the ordinary life

Don’t wait for the world
To show you what it has to offer
You have all the potential
To be happy
Despite circumstances
seasonal depression
And the harsh snow weather
Sincerely,
A girl that lives in Canada

Feeling empty
Is a harsh feeling
As if nothing makes sense
As if suddenly everything stops for a while
We need to have faith
In ourselves
And accept our mood swings
Our moments of despair
We shouldn’t take decisions
We should simply let go
And let everything fits into its own way

Let go
of what keeps
your human roots
stuck to the ground

Let go
and liberate yourself
You deserve better my dear
Second chances are not always
worth the try

Just remember that even a movie
sequel is worse than the original

What if
I wanted to be an adult
But an adult with some human qualities
I don't want to go to work
If I woke up unable to breath, speak or walk
Where's the problem?
If you cried because you can't stand it anymore
Because you've had a tough day
Or because you've suddenly missed all the people that left

If you think you're a strong human being
because you can control your life, your feelings and your problems
Then you're everything but human
Listen to me
I don't want to transform myself into a mechanical process where all the organs of a human being are forgotten

Adulthood is an illusion just like love
Being an adult will not make you braver
You still have all the feelings and the fears of your childhood
But you know how to hide them

If you find nature, the only place
where you belong
Then my dear,
I think you're
entering the
cycle of life

I want to believe in myself
I want to be better
Study more
I'm healing
But sometimes it gets so hard
and I don't think I can do it
anymore
but there is hope
better days
I want to feel everything
Allow myself to be human
It's okay to have a bad day
We should be more gentle
with ourselves
To forgive ourselves before
forgetting others

There are places
People
Places
That make you feel alive
They remind you of your strength
They bring you back to a challenging life
A busy one
Where distraction
Is a must

How
you express love
is based on your past
experiences

Life is not a script that we should follow
But a story that we should write

I want a love that can trascends earth
that is able to travel to Mars
An outside of this world love
Where we could live on a deserted planet
Only us

Astronauts will be stupfied
Because what we have inside of us
has never been proven before
Two hearts not related to each other
but attached by an invisible wire
Beating with the same intensity
We'll mix Earth and Mars into this infinite universe

Move on
And stop worrying
Move on
And allow yourself to have bad days
Move on and choose yourself
Every time you want to give up
Move on
So the sadness will stop taking root in your soul
Stop having hope in a change of scenario
Stop overthinking
You are too precious to feel like this
You don’t deserve what happened to you
You are stronger than you think

Keeping someone sane is
the most devasting decision we
take in our human existence

One day
a person
will come
and they will
sum up everything
you've been through
in one phrase
But what if
I told you
that all the
little details
cannot be
summarized

Revenir
Pour détacher nos racines humaines
Revenir
Pour se souvenir du passé
Revenir simplement
Pour apprécier un présent plein de morceaux de joie

Je veux que mon existence aie du sens
Que ce que je dis soit non pas éternel
Mais lu par quelqu’un qui comprendra

We disappear
We leave
We let go
This is life

To open up to a world full of opportunities
Is the most sacred thing right now

The one going through a break-up
The people who stopped talking to someone
They used to care about
Do not let them in again
No matter how many times they said they are sorry
Stop giving them the permission
To try again
Don’t let them disrespect you
Move on
Move on
Stop thinking about them
Stop allowing them a space in your heart
And in your mind
Believe in yourself
You deserve better
You are more
Than this relationship
You can be disappointed
But still choose
To move on
You can compare it to a failure
But you can still move on
It can hurt
But you can still move on

Why don't we bring
the everyday routine into our lives
and accept it
as boring as it is
Why don't we bother ourselves
and just imagine how much life
was meaningless without effort
Why don't we see
all the beauty left in
this world
Why don't we give ourselves
the chance to start again

It is something you find within yourself

If only wars destroyed
buildings and walls
not souls
Men and woman continue their life
with half a heart
with half of their feelings
Wars ****
childhood
innocence
ignorance
We lie on the floor
not knowing if tomorrow
we will have another chance to continue dreaming
of better days
and some security
for our family and friends

you are enough
no matter who you are
how old are you
and how much you gain

Second chances
will make you feel better
or you’ll get destroyed forever

Imagine
life without
sacrifices
what a piece of heaven

belong to yourself
to your thoughts
to your piece of mind

I am not yours
even if sometimes
all i ever want is to be with you

Never underestimate
what happens to
people with a broken heart

Most of the times
We love people
Not because they complete us
But because
They give us a reason to live

How many people have to fall in love with you
So you'll realise that what you have inside is rare in our world

And they asked:
What word defines
your society?
And I said :
Instant coffee
Why?
Because we desire
energy
and
speed
in everything
we do

There will come a time
When you’ll leave everything and go
But it’s not that time yet

We abandon the people
the things
we love
the most

What if you just skipped
moments hoping there will be
better ones.

Sometimes
The love we feel inside
doesn't know
how to manifest itself

We have always convinced ourselves that we have feelings for someone when we didn't
And we always hid the true sentiments for someone that we aren't suppose to fall in love with

Some people are like houses
You can’t guess what they are by their façade, you have to visit them, discover every room in order to truly know them

Let us talk
Not to critique
But to express a sudden love
An unexpected friendship
And a connection that suprisingly blossomed

The
One
That
Loves
You
Will
Free
You

I left
So you'll grow outside of me
I came back to see what remained of our flame

Not
talking
made
things
easier
more
bearable

Someone called me modern today
and I don’t know if that’s a good thing
Maybe because where I was born people are usually attached to useless traditions
But we can’t always define someone by their country of origin
Even if we have lived in same places
but we have different parents, entourage and all that stuff
Stereotypes ruin our lives
But we will always find a way to show our true selves

I am not asking you to love me
But to accept me as I am

It’s not about the past
nor about your future
Why do we like to torture ourselves?
Is pain the only thing you can feel?
Is absence the only kind of love you know?
Are you telling me that you don’t love your present?
What do you want?
Is this the life you’ve always imagined?
We are human beings and we are melancholic
We are dark souls
But what if
You decided to change
Do you need time to think about that?

It’s been a rough year
for all of us
But we have survived
We made it through tough times
We did our best to protect ourselves
We enjoyed small little outings
We walked a lot
We talked on the phone a lot
We discussed
our fears
our worries
our sufferings
What made us sad
But still
We handled it
We continued living
Were are still breathing
We are talking taking care of our souls
of our bodies
All of this has the power
to makes us feel better
to accept
ourselves as human beings
affected by the outside world

Heal me
without judgement
Help me
without my notice
For whenever we put labels on necessities
they lose their meaning and their credibility

Loving someone needs time
You can't jump from being friends
to lovers in seconds
