Hearts are the affected organs, but livers and lungs carry the burdens.
I will make this life large, beautiful and eventful. I will live. I will live. I will live.
What's all this food-related guilt about?
First, parts of you die, and then the things you think define you fade into the background. But you're still in control, you didn't need them anyway. Then you wake up one October morning, and you're seeping through your own fingers like water. You have no idea whom you are, you only have a vague idea of whom you want to be, but that's hard and you need to grieve for the girl who's dying inside you, because God knows she's carried you. Alas, you live in a world full of people with questions and they feel entitled to you remaining the same. You can't explain that your paradigms are not just shifting, they're blowing up and turning into ash in your hands, so you just fold into yourself. But Yourself is falling apart, and it's just...living God what is happening?
Ada Limón, from “I Have Wanted Clarity in Light of My Lack of Light”, The Hurting Kind
...the definition of humanness is the opportunity to marvel at the majesty of creation...
John Green, The Fault In Our Stars
Fear has never reaped accomplishment
If anyone else screams at me about my brain power I'll upper cut them. I want to drink wine, eat bread and grow flowers. And maybe...if God is feeling generous, dance in a sun-lit kitchen with a man whose eyes resemble "melting silver" with a really warm body, and the softest rough hands in all of middle earth.
Don't look around, look ahead and don't stop until you get there.
If you can dream it, you can do it
Walt Disney
Forget fear. Chase your dreams!
