“It’ll hit you when you’re 16 and that heart of yours that loved so freely, is now shielded by the swords that broke it. It’ll hit you when you’re 18, when you’re lost and confused, while you watch others on their way to be where they want to be. It’ll hit you when you’re 21 and you seem to come home to an empty bed, with an even emptier heart. It’ll hit you when you realise that life was never going to be perfect. It was going to be about being 17 and spending your nights drunk with your best friends. It was going to be sipping coffee in Germany, spending your 19th birthday in Vietnam, chasing horizons in Australia. It’s going to be the year that you spend travelling, while everyone runs around thinking they need to be something by this age or that. It’s going to be that job you finally get, that you have been praying for night after night. And then you’ll realise that life wasn’t about the heartbreak, the rejection or the utter shear of being lost. It was about the moments in between. Always cherish the moments in between.”
— life is about your timing, not theirs.
