From as far back as she could remember, she'd had the sense that she wasn't enough. Her parents who both had their own insecurities, had encouraged that idea.She imagined, now, what it would be like to accept herself completely. Every mistake she had ever made. Every mark on her body. Every dream she had ever made. Every mark on her body. Every dream she hadn't reached or pain she had felt. Every lust or longing she had suppressed.She imagined accepting it all. The way she accepted nature. The way she accepted a glacier or a puffin or the breach of a whale.She imagined seeing herself as just another brilliant freak of nature. Just another sentient animal, trying her best.And in doing so, she imagined what it was like to be free.” ― Matt Haig, The Midnight Library tags: accepting-yourself, being-free, insecurity, not-enough 133 likes Like “Her face felt like it was scattered in pieces and she could not keep it straight.

As I walked aimlessly, in the direction of downtown, I returned to my theories. That Mizuko and I shared the pictorial equivalent of DNA. That a sympathetic magic existed between us, no matter how far apart we were pulled. That we defied physical laws of time and space, waves, gravity, the rules laid down by physicists which governed our physical universe (earthquakes, tsunamis) and physical bodies. And yet somehow our connection had led to the opposite of intimacy. My search had led to its opposite. I had never felt so isolated and disconnected, even from myself.” ― Olivia Sudjic, Sympathy tags: connection, disconnected, intimacy, isolated, not-enough, olivia-sudjic, soulmates, sympathetic-magic, sympathy 2 likes Like “It wasn't enough but it was a start.

Vitarus said, incredulous. 'Enough? What is it to suffer enough? The mouse suffers at the fangs of a snake. The snake suffers a the claws of a badger. The badger suffers at the teeth of a wolf.

Maya's tone is matter-of-fact recalling the traditional pungent dish of boiled cabbage and mutton with bone, seasoned with whole black peppercorns. "There's nothing better when you only get it once in a while. Seasonally. But if it were on your plate every day, you'd eventually start to lose your appetite for mutton. Sometimes the smell is enough. Or just the thought of it fills you up."Lisbeth is not the only one grinning now, she knows Kat and Sina are picturing the same thing she is: a naked Steinar with twisted ram's horns covering his ears. His pointy nose quivering, sniffing boiled cabbage and peppercorns.” ― Anne Østby, Pieces of Happiness tags: mutton, not-enough, same-old-same, sex 0 likes Like “Love sometimes is unexpected and insufficient, yet grows in abundance.” ― John Joclebs Bassey, Night of a Thousand Thoughts tags: abundant, inadequacy, inadequate, insufficient, love-grows, not-enough, surprises, unexpected, unexpected-love, unpredictable 0 likes Like “لا يكفي أن تستطيع إصلاح الأوتار في كمان، ولكن عليك أن تعرف كيف تعزف عليه. لا يكفي أن يكون لك حقل، ولكن عليك أن تعرف كيف تحرثه وتبذره.” ― رسول حمزاتوف, بلدي tags: inspirational-quotes, not-enough, talent 0 likes Like “King Rowland often told his son Apollo, 'If you are nice, it means you are not enough of anything else.

I was never enough for him. Never what he wanted. Always begging for scraps of attention, perpetually left empty.” ― Fae Quin, Cloudy With a Chance of Bad Decisions tags: bad-relationship, hurt, not-enough 0 likes Like All Quotes | My Quotes | Add A Quote
