    Can confirm. There are SO MANY people in my life who I’m like “you’re just so cool.” People who might not consider themselves the prettiest, the smartest, the trendiest, the most intelligent… Etc. but each of those people fucking SHINE to me in a way that is so truly irreplaceable and THEM. I try and say it whenever I have it, but there are many people I just never get the chance to say it to.

    One that stands out is this girl in my class at college back in the early 2000s. Random girl, I worked with her on one project, but something about how she inspired and motivated me has stuck with me for 20 years. I’ve made decisions and changes in my life because of her, and she has no clue that she’s a pivotal and incredible power in my world to this day.

    This is you to someone. I guarantee it.
