“All paths cause pain, so to chose the safe over the audacious will not give you less pain, only less beauty.”

“I chose the path less traveled but only because I was lost. Carry a map. - Phoebe Traeger”

“Be careful not to hurt people, they can begin to love you less. The pain you cause can chisel their hearts, until there's nothing left.”

“One day at a time. You rise, you eat, you bathe, and you talk to the few people you can tolerate while feeling so wretched. Over time, it hurts a little less. Then a little less. And so on...Until one morning, you will awake and realize the pain is only a memory. It will always be with you, but it will eventually lack the power to cripple you.”

“Its a pain to get rejected. But when we think that after a long time it will give you much less pain when we have a thought “I should have asked”.”

“Pain is pain...Just because one person's problem is less traumatic than another's doesn't mean they're required to hurt less.”
