people good-things
But the happiest people are the ones who understand that good things occur when one allows them to.
writing people doubt
The people around you are you. They share your history. They can even write it with you. And when you lose one, there's no doubt you lose some of yourself, however they're lost.
mistake people privilege
Anonymity is an abused privilege, abused most by people who mistake vitriol for wisdom and cynicism for wit.
stars people matter
And as I looked at the star, I realised what millions of other people have realised when looking at stars. We're tiny. We don't matter. We're here for a second and then gone the next. We're a sneeze in the life of the universe.
amazing based future human imagine might mind moments point quickly second
I think we all have those moments at one point or other in our lives... when we see someone and immediately imagine a whole universe around them. A relationship, a future, and all based on just a second which might not even have been in their company. It's amazing how quickly the human mind can come up with this stuff.

Essays just aren't my thing: no matter how hard I tried, it seemed I was always a bit average.
ad asked came course great hard lib man mess party success thrilled turned video work
A man came up to me at a party and asked if I wanted to be in his video game. I of course said yes. And then it turned out it was 'Assassin's Creed', so that was great. They let me ad lib a lot and mess about and be very snarky indeed, and I'm thrilled by the success of all their hard work.
asked life
I try to find where the fun is and go there and then get asked if I want to have more fun. That's the way I want my life to go. Follow the fun.
opportunity only-time
The only time you have no opportunities is when you decide to stop taking them.
love-you want saying-yes
I was saying yes because when you're in love, the world is full of possibilities, and when you're in love, you want to take every single one of them.
life-happens said best-things
Probably some of the best things that have ever happened to you in life, happened because you said yes to something. Otherwise things just sort of stay the same.
favors suggestions request
I will say yes to every favor, request, suggestion and invitation. I will swear to say yes where once I would say no.
karma country reality
The sad thing is, I was discovering that you almost have to make a joke of being good to strangers. Up and down the country, these people doing their good deeds were doubtless being seen as slightly eccentric, when in reality and in an ideal world they should be deemed the most normal people of all.
might text-messaging notes
Wagamama. Text messaging aficionados might like to note that this is one of the most satisfying words you can possibly type.
