This is my favorite thing I've read in awhile.

You want me to be a tragic backdrop so that you can appear to be illuminated, so that people can say ‘Wow, isn’t he so terribly brave to love a girl who is so obviously sad?’ You think I’ll be the dark sky so you can be the star? I’ll swallow you whole.

-Warsan Shire

Live for....

Everything's Right

       I took this a couple of months ago but I keep forgetting to post it. It really cheered me up one day walking to class.

Do not let your fire go out...

        I like living.I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it, I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing. 
       -Agatha Christie

This gets it so right.

Very,very cool website.
I am in love with anything having to do with beautiful pictures and quotes.

      The unreal is more powerful than the real. Because nothing is as perfect as you can imagine it. Because its only intangible ideas, concepts, beliefs, fantasies that last. Stone crumbles. Wood rots. People, well, they die. But things as fragile as a thought, a dream, a legend, they can go on and on. If you can change the way people think. The way they see themselves. The way they see the world. You can change the way people live their lives. That's the only lasting thing you can create.
-Chuck Palahniuk

      Happiness isn't something you remember, it's something you experience.

     There's a dream in my soul, a fight that's deep inside me. There's a me no one knows, waiting to be set free. I'm gonna see that day, I can feel it, I can taste it; change is coming my way. I was born to be somebody, ain't nothing that's ever gonna stop me. I light up the sky like lightening, I'm gonna rise above, show 'em what I'm made of. -Justin Bieber
         
     I identify with these lyrics too much to not post them.

A second is no more than a second, a minute no more than a minute, a day no more than a day. They pass. All things and all time will pass. Don't force or fear, don't control or lose control. Don't fight and don't stop fighting. Embrace and endure. If you embrace, you will endure. -AMLP

When one lives without fear, one cannot be broken.When one lives with fear one is broken before one begins to live. -A million little pieces

This is your world...

"If you are depressed you are living in the past. If you are anxious you are living in the future. If you are at peace you are living in the present."

Happy MLK jr. day!

Human progress is neither automatic nor inevitable...Every step toward the goal of justice requires sacrifice, suffering, and struggle; the tireless exertions and passionate concern of dedicated individuals.

I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant.

Pity may represent little more than the impersonal concern which prompts the mailing of a check, but true sympathy is the personal concern which demands the giving of one's soul.

An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.
-Martin Luther King Jr.

    Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.
-Oscar Wilde

"Reach for the stars, so if you fall you land on a cloud."

-Kanye West
