My dear, Don’t worry about doing it all, you can’t. Don’t worry about staying up to date, it’s pointless. Skip it. Skip it all. Skip the socializing, skip the stuff you do to please others and not yourself, skip the stuff you do because you feel you have to do it, and definately skip the stuff that hurts and belittles you, be it substances or people. Skip it all. Figure out what is really important in life and skip...

My dear, Smile, it lets your teeth breathe. Smile, because it’s scientifically proven that smiling, even when you’re sad, actually makes you happier. Smile, because a curved upper line is the most beautiful thing to find on a face. Smile, because it’s contagious. Smile, just because. Falsely yours, A....

My dear, If you never chase your dreams you’ll never catch them. Your dreams are in front of you, and they don’t move in any direction except forward. They’ll never ever walk backwards to you. You have to go towards them. You can’t catch them if you sit still, your dreams are ambitious, they’ll just move even farther from you. Catching your dreams is the ultimate game of Cat and Mouse, and the mouse never...

My dear, Truth is, none of us actually knows what we’re doing. We’re all just moving forward bit by bit hoping we don’t trip on our own shoelaces. We’re all just going from point A to point B hoping it all means something. We’re all just a bunch of people who’ve learnt how to delude themselves into thinking they are grandeur than all the world. Let’s face it, we’re all just a bunch of fucking...

My dear, Be the kind of woman that people make way for. Be the kind of woman that takes responsibility into her own hands, and does something with it. Be the kind of woman whose accomplishments makes people stutter when they talk to her. Be the kind of woman who doesn’t let the fact that she doesn’t have it all figured out hold her back. Falsely yours, A....

My dear, People say you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone. The truth is, you knew exactly what you had; you just thought you’d never lose it. The truth is that the best things in life are the things we notice least. We never notice the person who’s done a good job quietly for years, but we notice the one day they don’t. We don’t notice the person quietly carrying the burdens of the world on...

My dear, If the lessons of history teach us anything it is that nobody learns the lessons that history teaches us. “We do, we do,” we say. “We’ve learned all we need to from history and those primitive versions of us,” we say. “We’re smarter and thus our actions are different and better,” we say. “We’re more learnt that those people of the past, how could we possibly make the same...

My dear, To teach a pig to think you’ll have to get down on your knees and get in the mud. You’ll have to wrestle with it, and quiet it’s squealing long enough for it to (maybe) listen. You’ll have to say the same thing over and over and over again and each time slower than the first, just to make sure it’s got the point (it hasn’t). And after all that, you’ll reach a point where you realize that...

My dear, Work like you don’t need money, love like you’ve never been hurt, and dance like no one’s watching. That is to say, live openly. Let go of your guards and walls, you’re self-imposed prisons, and return to that joy you knew as a kid. Return to that place where you weren’t afraid to run around the house naked, weren’t afraid to laugh for hours on end, and weren’t afraid to cry candidly. We all visit...

My dear, The man who gets around easily with no car to get around is richer than the one with twenty cars. The man who can eat the simplest of foods with all the pleasures that come from fine dining is richer than the man who eats the top ranked foods from all over the world every day of his life. The richest man is not he who has the most, but he who needs the least. This are not material riches I’m talking about, but transcendent...
