you’ve got this big heart, and it’s full of all these big dreams…

take a deep breath and just hold on

you’ve got this big heart,
and it’s full of all these big dreams,
and maybe sometimes these dreams feel too big,
and maybe sometimes all of this feels too hard,
but the heavens want to have favor on you,
and it may take a long time, but it will happen
in its right time… so take a deep breath
and just hold on

heartbreak has this way of making your world seem so. small… this isn’t the end…

this world is too wide, and this universe is too big

heartbreak has this way
of making your world seem so small,
just taking everything that
has meaning and collapsing it into
one single story, with only one other person,
and just one version of yourself, in just
one version of life, with what feels
like no way out, and as if there is
nothing more to know

but this world is too wide, and this
universe is too big, and you are just. too. beautiful,
and there is just way too much inside of you…
for you to let this be the end

this isn’t the end…

your standards for love: keep them high…

keep them high.

your standards for love are going to make some
people uncomfortable. and they will try to make
you feel like those standards are too high.

i think it’s because those standards threaten
their comfort zones.

what you believe in either challenges how they treat
people… or how they’ve accepted being treated.

but none of that is about you.
this is your own life. and it will be your own love
and your own heart. so don’t ever let anyone make
you question your own standards…
keep them high.
