The idea of the past is as useless as the idea of the future. Both could be invoked by anybody about anything. There is never any more beauty than there is now. There is no more joy or wonder or sorrow than there is now, nor perfection, nor any more evil nor any more good than there is now. ↗

It saddens me to see girls proudly declaring they’re not like other girls – especially when it’s 41,000 girls saying it in a chorus, never recognizing the contradiction. It’s taking a form of contempt for women – even a hatred for women – and internalizing it by saying, Yes, those girls are awful, but I’m special, I’m not like that, instead of stepping back and saying, This is a lie. The real meaning of “I’m not like the other girls” is, I think, “I’m not the media’s image of what girls should be.” Well, very, very few of us are. Pop culture wants to tell us that we’re all shallow, backstabbing, appearance-obsessed shopaholics without a thought in our heads beyond cute boys and cuter handbags. It’s a lie – a flat-out lie – and we need to recognize it and say so instead of accepting that judgment as true for other girls, but not for you. ↗

Shana, kalau kamu mencari cowok dengan patokan keren, itu berarti kamu belum mengerti arti dari sebuah hubungan. Yang harus kamu nilai dari seorang cowok adalah apakah dia memperlakukan kamu dengan baik. Seperti, apakah dia mau membukakan pintu untukmu, apakah dia mengantarmu pulang dan menungguimu sampai kamu masuk rumah, baru dia pergi. Cowok seperti itu yang perlu kamu pertahankan. ↗
