It’s like you’re not even there sometimes. It’s great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn’t need a shoulder. What if they need the arms or something like that? You can’t just sit there and put everybody’s lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can’t. You have to do things.
—The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky (via thechocolatebrigade)
You will know that forgiveness has begun when you recall those who hurt you and feel the power to wish them well.” ~Lewis B. Smedes
