Let someone love you just the way you are - As flawed as you might be , as unattractive you sometimes feel, and as unaccomplished as you think you are. To believe that you must hide all the parts of you that are broken, out of fear that someone else is incapable of loving what is less than perfect, is to believe that sunlight is incapable of entering a broken window and illuminating a dark room.

It's hard not to notice how much of our generation's cultural language is based on irony, sarcasm, and a sense of cool detachment. Being too invested in anything — even things that may be considered objectively important — renders you vulnerable. And when communication is so fast and free and reputations are made and destroyed with a few strikes of a keyboard, the last thing you want to be is weak. If you take something too seriusly which, to everyone else, is a joke, you will soon find yourself squarely at the punchline. It is easy to understand why wearing a hard shell of ironic indifference is a necessary tool in the fight against being irrelevant or, worse, needy.

When someone sees the same people everyday, they wind up become a part of that person's life. And then they want the person to change. If someone isn't what others what them to be, the others become angry. Everyone seems to have a clear idea of how other people should lead their lives, but none about his or her own.
- Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist)

Nothing hurts more than losing something you took for granted.
