“To be happy, it first takes being comfortable being in your own shoes. The rest can work up from there. The hardest situation to stay happy, I think, is when you’re trying to find love, and yourself at the same time. It just doesn’t seem to fit well. So I believe that happiness is being able to wake up and just know that this is what you wanted, and not what somebody else wanted.”
—Sophia Bush (via eletheowl)
“At any given moment, you have the power to say: this is not how the story is going to end.”

“Fiction is one of the few experiences where loneliness can be both confronted and relieved. Drugs, movies where stuff blows up, loud parties - all these chase away loneliness by making me forget my name’s Dave and I live in a one-by-one box of bone no other party can penetrate or know. Fiction, poetry, music, really deep serious sex, and, in various ways, religion - these are the places where loneliness is countenanced, stared down, transfigured, treated.”

People say goodbye.I can’t stop re-watching the Grey’s Anatomy finale. And when I’m not watching it, I’m re-watching Meredith’s scenes on youtube. And when I’m not doing that, I’m listening to this song and picturing the scene in my head.
Mind. Fucking. Blown.
Best finale I’ve ever seen in my life.
