I’m a starving child trying to stuff my stomach, gorging my senses on the decadence of these moments as if I’ll wake up in the morning and realize I’m still sweeping cinders for my stepmother. But then Adam’s lips press against my head and my worries put on a fancy dress and pretend to be something else for a while. Tahereh Mafi
About This Quote

The quote above by Natalie Imbruglia is very inspiring and shows how she is moving on from her past and hoping to get better. The quote describes how she is trying to make the best out of the moments she has, which are in a way “decadent” because they are so great. She is in a way being in denial about the real world around her, however she is trying to enjoy these moments as she goes on with her life. She is living in the present moment, which means that you are trying to live your life fully rather than just being in it.
