Ironies
“I speak fluent sarcasm”, said one on the social network
“I have mental problems”, said one to a new acquaintance
“My social life is non-existent”, said one to a group of friends.
It’s like they race to become the next top indirect-asshole-but-still-an-asshole
or the one who needs the most psychiatric help
or the one who has the worst social skills amongst all.
All these things, they’re all negative. They’re flaws.
And yet they compete for the titles
with the twisted ideas of it being ‘cool’.
So proud of being faulty and lacking of
why is that so?
Why would they want to be perceived negatively?
Those words, disclaimers, they’re so redundant
it is saying “don’t judge me, but judge me as you please”
how very blindly ironic.
The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel
“My feelings for you cannot be reduced to a single word.”
“It’s a nice word. People like hearing it.”
“There is no past that we can bring back by longing for it. Only a present that builds and creates itself as the past withdraws.”
“Everything will be all right in the end. If it’s not all right, then it’s not yet the end.”
“Why would you not go out? There’s so much to see. All life is here Mrs. Ainslie, I tell you.”

One of the best and most sincere film I’ve watched.
A strong message of how life never and should not ever stop as long as you must live. You may start anew at any given day that you choose, at whatever age, whatever the circumstances.
The only one stopping yourself is truly just you.
You know how when you’re missing someone you’re not supposed to miss, someone you have absolutely no reason to miss but you do anyway because your brain is stupid sometimes and you tell yourself you don’t miss that person and after a while you start believing it and then you realise you’re really hungry but can’t have two dinners in one night because that’s absurd and you really ought to study for your exams but in the end just keeps finding yourself on tumblr either scrolling or writing some sad poems that may or may not have anything to do with you but you just like the idea of having those emotions because they’re so intense and hey anything to get you out of feeling hungry right?
