           If you’re anything like me, you often find yourself down a rabbit hole of Instagram and Pinterest quotes at odd hours of the night. I’ll be honest, I can’t relate to most of the ones I find, even if I send them to my annoyed and sleep-deprived best friends with the caption “ugh isn’t this so me.” Sorry, Leah. But, there’s always one that just hits home that makes me feel a little better in the worst of moods. Because I want to relive the feelings I had when I first read these quotes, I decided to share them with you, and live vicariously through my readers. So, buckle in and break out a few tissues and your favorite Taylor Swift album.

I love you forever,

Juliet.

  10. “May you never be the reason why someone who loved to sing, doesn’t anymore. Or why someone who dressed so different, now wears standard clothing.

May you never be the reason for someone giving up on a part of themselves because you were demotivating, non-appreciative, or even worse- sarcastic about it.” -Shorouk Mostafa Ibrahim
