"you know, if you're thinking about sending someone a nice message and you're unsure because you're shy or whatever, just do it anyway. this world lacks so much kindness, and i see people all the time talking about why receiving a sweet message was the highlight of their day. if you have the ability to literally make someone's day by taking a moment to say a few nice words like, just do it"

"your shitty childhood isnt an excuse to be a shitty person. your shitty luck with relationships isnt an excuse to be a shitty person. your shitty experiences arent an excuse to be a shitty person. we ALL have our shit, and you can either let it define you, or you grow from it"
