It’s unfair how one event . . . one second . . . can shake the world around you. Toss everything on its head. Ruin every happy moment that led up to that earth-shattering second.

I feel like everyone fakes who they really are , when deep down we're all equal amounts of screwed up . some of us are just better at hiding it than others.

I'm not going to pretend that I know what youve gone through . but after reading those pages , I can assure you that you aren't the only one who was scarred in that fire . just because he chose not to show you his scars doesn't mean they don't exist . she picks up the box and sets it on my lap . here you need to show him the respect he showed you by not turning away from them.

I dont want to be your first , Fallon . I want to be your last

it pisses me off you allow something so trivial to define such a huge part of you . I can't make you pretty in the book . Because that be an insult You're fucking beautiful. And you're funny . And the only times I'm not completely enamored by you are the moments you're feeling sorry for yourself because I don't know if you've realized this yet , but your alive , fallon . and every time you look in the mirror you don't have a right to hate what you see . Because you survived when a lot of people don't get that lucky so from now on when you think about your scars , you aren't allowed to resent them . you're going to embrace them, because you're lucky to be on this earth to see them. And any guy you allow to touch your scars better thank you for that privilege.
