You spend 99% of your life looking for the other 1%

Marilyn Monroe, one of the most beautiful women in history, and no, she did not have a flat stomach. Love your body. Love yourself. Because if you don’t, then who will?

Let’s play hopscotch in malls. Let’s drive fast with the top down. Let’s turn up the music as loud as it’ll go. Let’s put a couch on an island in the middle of the freeway and wave at everyone on their way to work. Let’s hug strangers in parking lots. Let’s hand out secret messages at traffic lights. Let’s make lists of all the things that make us smile and tick them off, one at a time. The world will carry on without you and me when we’re gone. Let it carry on without us, today.

I set the harbour on fire. Soon, there’ll be nowhere left for you to say goodbye.

Don’t read too deeply into the things I say. You might drown.
