“I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.” ― Hafiz of Shiraz
I ran faster, I stretched my arms farther, I tied myself to the mast of my ship and finished my linguistics assignment. My new plant Sylvia is settling into her home. My clothes smell like a bonfire and my eyes are tired. I hope you know, wherever you exist within the Void, that there’s always more. Happy Thanksgiving.
“But I can take it if I know you’re out there, surviving, getting through it. This won’t be forever. There’s a future. There really is. We’ll find a way.” —Patrick Ness

I love when I realize that I’m handling a situation better than my old self would have.

I feel like I got a lot done today, although the construct of time begs to differ. I’ll never get done enough to truly be satisfied, but I’m learning to be okay with that. I hope you—as I break my melancholic monologue to look directly into the Void—know the happiness that comes with a hopeful kind of yearning.
“Tho' much is taken, much abides; and tho' / We are not now that strength which in old days / Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are; / One equal temper of heroic hearts, / Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will / To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.” —Alfred Lord Tennyson

— Friedrich Nietzsche
“Is it foolish to speak of little joys that occur in the middle of tragedy? It is our humanity. Whatever we have left of it. We must not deny it to ourselves.”
— Ilya Kaminsky, from Still Dancing: An Interview With Ilya Kaminsky by Garth Greenwell (via firstfullmoon)
work on who you want to be, but don’t forget to enjoy who you are
