It is a sad day when you realize your family is embarrassed of you. More specifically your sister. Although you always knew this, time goes by and you try to forget or hope things have changed. They really don’t. You’re 35 and still in high school. Why don’t you have this figured out by now and why do you still care about what anyone says? If you want to hula hoop in public, do it. To Hell with anyone who says otherwise.
“It would be too easy to say that I feel invisible. Instead, I feel painfully visible, and entirely ignored.”
—David Levithan, Every Day (via larmoyante)
“It is sometimes so bitterly cold in the winter that one says, `The cold is too awful for me to care whether summer is coming or not; the harm outdoes the good.’ But with or without our approval, the severe weather does come to an end eventually and one fine morning the wind changes and there is the thaw. When I compare the state of the weather to our state of mind and our circumstances, subject to change and fluctuation like the weather, then I still have some hope that things may get better.”
—Vincent van Gogh, from a letter to Theo van Gogh in August 1879 (via awritersruminations)
