It always rains the hardest
on people who deserve the sun

Be free
Be true
Be you

Today
I found an old book
on my shelves
I opened the pages
and smelled the smells
and for a moment
my mind forgot its place and time

You can plant flowers in the space of someone else's absence.
You can still feel the absence but you'll learn how to grow your own flowers without the help of anyone,
and in time, you'll have a garden full of the things you love

I see you. The real you.
And I think it’s brave and beautiful the way you love despite all the ways life tried to destroy you

A peaceful, quiet heart
Sometimes that’s all you wish for

Some days all you need are
the right songs and
a few pretty clouds.
