When you break someone's heart, you also break your own.

Here's another part of what might be a new series on my blog. Me talking about quotes I love and why they mean something to me. This one will be about pushing people away, being scared and trying not to need anybody. It's about love, loss and trying to change.



I took the following quotes from Cassia Leo's book Pieces Of You.



The quickest path to self-destruction is to push away the people you love.

I'm really good at that. I push people away because it's easier than trusting them first and get disappointed in the end. It's easier to push them away when you expect them to leave anyway. Getting too attached to someone always turned out to be a big mistake. I tried over and over again to trust people but I just can't. People always leave or put you second when they find someone better. I often think that things would be easier if I'd let people in and I really try but there are just a few ones I really trust.
I try to take the quote to heart because I know it won't make me happy to push people away in the long run.
There are people I wish I never pushed away, but I did. There are things in life you can never unmake, I wish I could.



I was drowning when I met you. I was barely breathing until you saved me. 

Sometimes you can't save yourself and you need someone else to do it. Sometimes you need someone to show you the bright sides of life again. Someone who will make you laugh and shiver in all the best ways, when all you wanna do is cry. You need someone who will show you the way back to the surface. 




The biggest mistake you made was loving me enough to let me go.

You meet someone, you trust him with all of your secrets, you get scared to get disappointed, you push him away, over and over again, until he leaves.




There is so much more I could say about these quotes, but that's it for now. I don't want it to be too personal, I think the quotes say it all.

Words mean more than you might believe.

Well, I'm a little obsessed with quotes. Okay, I'm REALLY obsessed with quotes. I have notebooks full of quotes. Everytime I see a quote I like I write it down. If I don't have my notebook with me, I scribble it on a piece of paper and tuck it anywhere safe until I can write it down in my notebook. 
So now I decided to write a post (or maybe more than one) with my favorite quotes in it. It can be lyrics, picture quotes, famous quotes or unknown ones. I will say why it means something to me. 
I tried to pick a favorite one but I can't. It's like picking a favorite song from your favroite band. You just can't. I mean you don't ask a mom to pick a favroite child, you just don't! So here is the first round of my favorite quotes!




Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger. The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger.- Fall Out Boy 

This quote is from Fall Out Boy's new album 'Save Rock and Roll' and it's especially the last part of the quote that means a lot. "The person that you'd take a bullet for is behind the trigger". I'm really bad when it comes to trusting people and that's because people disappointed me too often. Of course I disappointed people too. I mean it's like one of the things that are inevitable in life. But it's those you actually trusted and would do a hell of a lot for that shoot you in the end. They are behind the trigger because you gave them the power to hurt you by trusting them. I don't do that very often anymore. 




 
Hope is the one thing that keeps us going and makes the fight worth fighting. - Unknown
 
What would we do without hope? We'd be hopeless and then we'd be lost. We hope that things will be better one day and that gives us the strength to fight. Never lose hope!



 
I refuse to sink.- Unknown

This became my motto because of so many reasons. Did you ever feel like drowning without being in the water? Did you ever struggle so hard to get back to the surface that you didn't know if you'll make it? People tried to push me down so many times. They tried so hard to keep me on the ground but I tried harder to get up again. There were times when you think about giving up, drowning like a stone, but you don't because sometimes there are people who give you a reason to keep fighting without even knowing it. I do refuse to sink, no matter how worse things get or how hopeless I might be. There'll be hope, and there will always be at least one reason to keep fighting. 



 
Tears stream down your face when you lose something you cannot replace. - Coldplay 

I lost so much over the years. I lost my grandparents, I lost friends, I lost people I loved the most. I lost my pride, my hope, my love and my faith in people. Some of these things I found again, others were lost forever and there will never be anything that could replace them. 
There are people you lose. They die, they leave, they never come back. Some of them had a place in your heart that will stay empty forever, others had a place that will be filled by new people. Most of them were just meant to stay for a while but others were never meant to leave. Those are the ones who will leave places in your heart behind that will never be refilled. Some may try to replace them but no matter how hard they try, they can't. 
It hurts when you lose those that weren't meant to go!




Okay, that's it for now. I will definitely do it again and I hope I will have the time to do it more often. Please, if you read this and like it, leave a comment. Tell me one of your favorite quotes, tell your friends, share the love for quotes.

Cheers x
