"I hope you find a best friend who chooses to love the parts of you where you are most misunderstood so your wounds can blossom into spring. I hope you find a best friend who encourages you to be your fullest and most authentic self and admires the way you see existence in a unique and weird way. I hope you find a best friend who will always be by your side when you’re tormented by your depression and demons. I hope you find a best friend who truly wishes for your betterment and healing. I hope you find a best friend who will grow strong with you despite everything."– Juansen Dizon, Best Friend (via juansendizon)

she’s sorry.
she wants you to know that she’s sorry.
sorry for the way she is, and how she acts sometimes. her brain is damaged; it has been for as long as she can remember. her anxiety is the first thing she wants to apologize for. her thinking process is is an error, an endless cycle. anxious thoughts race through her mind, day and night, round and round like a merry go round. from past to present, she remembers it all.
her trauma.
her insecurities.
the hurt.
betrayal.
her mind is telling her to worry about anything and everything. she’s sorry for the days when when her tears stream down her swollen cheeks, and uncontrollable sobs rack her whole body. how she trembles so much that her body is frozen in one position, all while she sits there and wonders, “what’s wrong with me?”
she’s sorry for the scenarios that she makes up in her head; they all seem so real. you’re leaving her. you don’t want her anymore. she’s not pretty enough. not thin enough. just not good enough. she’s too much to deal with - unworthy of you.
but it isn’t her fault.
her mind has been cruel to her. people have been cruel to her. but she’s trying, so don’t you dare say she’s not. she will grow, at her own pace in her own time.
there will be a point where she begins to trust her new life, and that maybe the rug won’t be pulled out from under her again. but on behalf of her anxiety, she is truly sorry.

The famous Capa saying “If your pictures aren’t good enough, you’re not close enough” wasn’t just about being physically close to your subject but about being emotionally close too.
