I find a strange comfort in sadness.
It’s what I know and no one can ever take it from me because there is nothing to take.
It almost feels a little like home to me, like it’s where I belong.
I grew up here and it’s the place I always return to….
No matter what I do or where I go in life I always end up back here.
For me, there is a distinct fear in happiness.
Deep seated and unrelenting because I know deep down it won’t last. It’s never truly mine, and eventually something or someone will take it away because it doesn’t belong to me.
Like you never did.

“Guys like you don’t see girls like me. We don’t exist for you. We exist to do your homework. We exist to build your ego up. I am a successful, married mother. I am Chief Resident! I am Chief Resident of a major metropolitan hospital! I am a surgeon who saved his life today! And he still doesn’t see me.”

aniquotes:

“People don’t understand the word ruthless. They think it means ‘mean.’ It’s not about being mean. It’s about seeing the bright, clear line that leads from A to B. The line that goes from motive to means. Beginning to end. It’s about seeing that bright, clear line and not caring about anything but the beautiful fact that you can see the solution. Not caring about anything else but the perfection of it.”
