You know what I want? I want to be someone’s reason for waking up, someone’s reason for going through another day. Just once, I want to be the one being wished for, I want a guy to say to himself, ‘I’m so lucky to have her.’ To put it simply, I want to be someone’s everything.
People’s lives change. To keep all your old friends is like keeping all your old clothes - pretty soon your closet is so jammed and everything’s so crushed you can’t find anything to wear. Help these friends when they need you; bless the years and happy times when you meant a lot to each other; but try not to feel guilty if new people mean more to you now.
Know yourself fully before making promises to another. Make many mistakes so you’ll know the right decision when it really matters. Know when to hold on and when to let go. Love hard and often, and without reservation. Seek knowledge. Open yourself up to possibility. Keep your heart open, your head high and your spirit free. Embrace your darkness along with your light. Never mislead anyone, especially yourself. Have the courage to admit when you’re wrong. Awaken to the brilliance of ordinary moments. See goodness in the world. Strive to be your best. Be bold. Be grateful. Be wild and gloriously free. Be you.
