I Like People With Emotional & Intellectual Depth. People That Speak With Passion From Their Inner Twisted Mind.
There is a rare breed of people that go all in. They keep their word, they give it their all, they go the extra mile for those they care for.
These individuals hardly ever receive the same passion and effort in return, yet never change and always give their all. Hoping that one day maybe, just maybe they find someone as rare as them to love them as fiercely and with as much devotion.
To the givers, forgivers & selfless lovers out there … keep being beautiful.
Don't let this cold world change you, and take advantage of every little moment you are given.
Rare breeds don't get hung up on the norm that society imposes. Or the opinions of those who follow a strict structure and sets of rules that not a damn person asked us about. We don't take direction from the world. We direct our own world.
