Something about “You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you” AND “my affections and wishes are unchanged but one word from you will silence me on this subject for ever” AND “A man who had felt less, might” AND “I cannot fix on the hour, or the spot, or the look, or the words, which laid the foundation. It is too long ago. I was in the middle before I knew that I had begun” AND “Such I was, from eight to eight and twenty and such I might still have been but for you, dearest, loveliest Elizabeth.”
The first known Mr Darcy on stage was a woman. In 1899 Miss Willis as Mr Darcy performed alongside Miss Childs as Elizabeth Bennet, as part of an all-female production of Pride and Prejudice at Wellesley College, Massachusetts.

i saw a quote that said “i feel like i’m constantly worrying about the next part of my life without realizing that i’m right in the middle of what i used to look forward to.” and i felt that.
“I’m convinced that when something is meant for you, you’ll never have to question whether it is what you want, you won’t feel anxious and wonder whether it is going to make you happy in the long run. When something is meant to be, it will happen in harmony with you.”— Ekta Somera
Lately I’ve come to realize and accept that I am a total looser. I have been trying to become someone I look down on, and of course I hate too admit, but i look down on myself too(unconsciously) and other people too. I’ve trying everything to seem like I have the authority to be above and to criticize other, but instead jt is because i’m too insecure about myself and i just want to feel less of a loser, which is pathetic and it work for a while, until now. With everything that had happen, my friends, boyfriend, all prove to me that no one respect me because of the way I am. And yes they are right.
This make me start asking who I really want to become, who i want to be surrounded, and why am I doing what I did right now. What is the purpose, what do I want in life. How do I want to be treated, what do I want others to see in me? Who I want to be with that can help me grow but still embraces me instead of devalued me? Since I criticize myself so much I become my own enemy before anyone else but I didn’t recognize.
I will embrace myself and my life before anyone else. I will take control of my life and do what is right for me.
