“Let me say this thing about us, the hopeless romantics: we’re the most real kind of people. People may say we’re out of world; they may say we persuade perfection and fairy tales, but that’s simply not true. Hopeless romantics are the kind of people who find happiness appreciating the smallest things and the simplest touch of a hand. We’re the people who fall in love with long nights, the freezing air and the beating of our hearts. We love to write poetry, even if we don’t seem to find the right words for it. People may say we want too much, but that’s simply because they don’t dare enough to dream and see the actual beauty of romance. Romance is so much more than ‘I love you’s and kissing in the streets. Being a hopeless romantic means finding something to hope for, something good and kind of wonderful. It’s the kind of courage everyone expect to have, but most of them cannot find. Hopeless romantics are vulnerable yet strong people who allows themselves to create the most unexpected scenarios in their heads, the ones that thinks the tomorrow can be the greatest days of their lives. In a world full of ceticism, broken words and cold shoulders, I want to be something lightful, a softer soul, a hopeless romantic. And let me say this: I’m not afraid of wanting a little bit more.”
— an infp hopeless romantic that wants to love, and to be loved.
“Any form of human creativity is a process of doing it and getting better at it…[Writers] don’t usually peak in their 20s. It’s usually quite a lot later on.”
