That thing you wish you should or shouldn’t have done… It’s possible you think that way as a result of doing that thing. So the information you have now, or the thoughts you have now, or the realisations you’ve made now may not even have been possible had you not done that thing (or done it) in the first place. There is…
The wound is the place where the light enters you. – Rumi It’s the trials and the suffering that make the good times truly sweet. And it’s the trials that lead to the best times of your life (they may even be the best times of your life, whether now, without realising, or later, in reflection.
Is respect (and the anger caused by a lack of it) just in the eye of the beholder? How much unnecessary anger and frustration do people feel because they feel they don’t get this non tangible thing?

Is there anyway that saying ‘I’m proud of you’ isn’t even little bit selfish?

Camp Cope have a way of relating frustrating, annoying and sometimes shitty stories that are deeply personal to them, that girls (and guys) can relate to and they don’t seem to really give a shit about how much they reveal–about themselves, what people say or said, or do or did. The value of The Opener is that it tells the story…
One of the most common regrets of those in the final stages of their life is: ‘I wish I’d lived the life I’d wanted.’ That is, a life based on how you want to live it.
