thinking way rooms
having someone think of me that way was like discovering a new window in the room i'd lived in all my life.
thinking clouds stronger
He is much stronger than I think I am. He is mischievous, outgoing, ready to soar through the clouds, while I often feel like the cloud itself.
heart thinking hands
We hold hands as we walk through town. If anybody notices, nobody cares. I know we all like to think of the heart as the center of the body but at this moment, every conscious part of me is in the hand that he holds. It is through that hand, that feeling, that I experience everything else.

thinking aquariums car
I am like the fish in the aquarium, thinking in a different language, adapting to a life that’s not my natural habitat. I am the people in the other cars, each with his or her own story, but passing too quickly to be noticed or understood.
thinking differences people
This is a difference between us: you desire what other people have, while I desire the things I used to have, or think I might have one day.

I don’t want you to think I got through this undamaged, okay? But I’m learning to live with it. Because otherwise, the damage is all you are.
thinking moments
There are all these moments you don't think you will survive. And then you survive.

But there was something about you that made me think of sparks and motion.
thinking proud fit
I am proud that I defy your categories. I am proud that I don't fit easily into any box. I am proud of all the things I am and all the things i can be. Question yourself every time you think you only see one thing in me.
mean thinking compassion
We are not taught "love thy neighbor unless their skin is a different color from yours " or "love thy neighbor unless they don't make money as you do" or "love thy neighbor unless they don't share your belies." We are taught "love thy neighbor". No exceptions. We are all in this together - every single one of us. And the only way we are going to survive as a society is through compassion. A Great Community does not mean we all think the same things or do the same things. It simply means we are willing to work together and are willing to love despite our differences.
mistake thinking antidote
The mistake is thinking that there can be an antidote to the uncertainty.
pain thinking yesterday
I wake up thinking of yesterday. The joy is in remembering; the pain is in knowing it was yesterday.
meaningful thinking possibility
But I think we both knew, even then, that what we had was something even more rare, and even more meaningful. I was going to be his friend, and was going to show him possibilities. And he, in turn, would become someone I could trust more than myself.
