Art is like turning corners, one never knows what is around the corner until one has made the turn.

Build. Destroy. Rebuild. I’ve mastered the art of bouncing back. Now to master the art of not having to.

I think everything in life is art. What you do. How you dress. The way you love someone, and how you talk. Your smile and your personality. What you believe in, and all your dreams. The way you drink your tea. How you decorate your home. Or party. Your grocery list. The food you make. How your writing looks. And the way you feel. Life is art.
Helena Bonham Carter (via bird-madgirl)
I think one of the saddest realities in life, is craving something you deem as valuable and meaningful and then when it’s finally in your possession - with no experience of how to nurture it, you ruin it and lose it; only to continue the rest of your life searching for its replacement. The art of appreciation will always overshadow regret.

Whatever your dream is, it is not too late to achieve it. You aren’t a failure because you haven’t found fame and fortune by the age of 21. Hell, it’s okay if you don’t even know what your dream is yet. Even if you’re flipping burgers, waiting tables or answering phones today, you never know where you’ll end up tomorrow.
Never tell yourself you’re too old to make it.
Never tell yourself you missed your chance.
Never tell yourself that you aren’t good enough.
You can do it. Whatever it is.

How do you know when it's time to let go of someone?
deeplifequotes answered:
assuming your a woman…
i believe most relationships (85+%) are boring as fuck b/c men (sometimes women) don’t act like men anymore. most just play video games, watch anime/sports/xxx or hang out with other men who do the same shit. men should lead (like a salsa dancer), and take their women on adventures and create art/music with them. they should be able to come up with creative ways to inject spontaneity into the relationship; they should be able to flow… but most men are too lazy to want to understand the rhythm of women & life.. so back to your question: How do I know when it’s time to let go of someone? when you’re bored, lonely, depressed, not growing, feeling small/uninspired. i think the best way to know if it’s time to let go is to reconnect with your soul… it’ll know… b/c in his presence, if your soul doesn’t dance/melt/glow, then it’s time to move on to something new. let your soul guide you. hope that helps. -rob
p.s. assuming your a man: if she’s using your credit card without your permission to buy lots and lots of hello kitty stuff… then it’s time to let her go.
