Don’t lament so much about how your career is going to turn out. You don’t have a career. You have a life. Do the work. Keep the faith. Be true blue. You are a writer because you write. Keep writing and quit your bitching. Your book has a birthday. You don’t know what it is yet.
You cannot convince people to love you. This is an absolute rule. No one will ever give you love because you want him or her to give it. Real love moves freely in both directions. Don’t waste your time on anything else.
Most things will be okay eventually, but not everything will be. Sometimes you’ll put up a good fight and lose. Sometimes you’ll hold on really hard and realize there is no choice but to let go. Acceptance is a small, quiet room.
Dear Sugar wrote some advice to her twenty-something year old self and you should read all of it because it’s so good. (via synecdoche)
I added an extra bit to Synecdoche’s quote, and it was hard not to quote the whole freaking thing. For real. Read this right now. I guarantee you need to read what’s written here, no matter who you are.

This just devastated me. or i am devastated by it. or whatever. regardless, I can’t stop crying. do yourself a fucking favor and read the whole damn thing
