if there is one thing that i am, i am books. i am

ink, gushing black out of aisles of time, i am ache, brushing

past protagonists in purple and girls spun from gold.

i am tall and heavy, standing in grasses so thick light never

touches the dirt; i am a couch on rainy sunday, springs

sticking out and reaching for freedom from musty confines.

if there is one thing that i am, i am heart. i am

constellations stretched out before myself like an angry map,

i am bound at the stake, i have stood in the sun and not gotten

burned. i am consumed with passion, green with envy, red with

rage; i am wax dripping from antique chandeliers onto battle plans

over and over again.

if there is one thing that i am, i am the semicolon. i am

always held at half past half, continuing to both stop and go at once.

i am sleep on a summer afternoon, dreaming about creativity and

angry for heartbreak. i am back in the past looking ahead through

rose colored lenses tinted slightly too pink. i am never in the present

or the future, i am always wax, i am always ink, ache, i am always

books.

"The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of,..."

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 22:27:29 -0800

““The most important things are the hardest things to say. They are the things you get ashamed of, because words diminish them — words shrink things that seemed limitless when they were in your head to no more than living size when they’re brought out. But it’s more than that, isn’t it? The most important things lie too close to wherever your secret heart is buried, like landmarks to a treasure your enemies would love to steal away. And you may make revelations that cost you dearly only to have people look at you in a funny way, not understanding what you’ve said at all, or why you thought it was so important that you almost cried while you were saying it. That’s the worst I think. When the secret stays locked within not for a want of a teller but for an ear.””

- Stephen King (via daphneemarie)

““Whenever you feel uncomfortable, instead of retreating back into your old comfort zone, pat yourself on the back and say, “I must be growing,” and continue moving forward.””

live-likenotomorrow:

Sometimes it’s easier for me to pretend rather than face my feelings.
Sometimes it’s easier to try to make it alone than risk getting hurt again.
Sometimes it’s easier to be numb towards certain people so I dont let them get too close.
Sometimes I’m scared, but when I act numb towards you it doesnt mean I don’t care. It means I care too much.

“I’m not the silly romantic you think. I don’t want the heavens or the shooting stars. I don’t want gemstones or gold. I have those things already. I want…a steady hand. A kind soul. I want to fall asleep, and wake, knowing my heart is safe.”

"I can’t decide if I want to forget you and move on, or keep holding on. It’s not really my choice..."

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 20:39:07 -0800

“I can’t decide if I want to forget you and move on, or keep holding on. It’s not really my choice anyway, but even if it was, I couldn’t decide. And I don’t know if I want to see you or not. I don’t know what’s worse; not seeing you and missing you, or seeing you and just feeling worse for not being able to be close to you. My eyes search for you, always. The only problem is, once I find you, I can’t do anything. I’m paralyzed. Being so close, yet so far, it’s unbearable. You’re always just out of reach. I wonder why my heart won’t let go of something so impossible?”

It's just a lot easier to say I don't love, than to explain all the reasons why I still do.

"Does it break my heart, of course, every moment of every day, into more pieces than my heart was..."

Wed, 02 Dec 2009 20:36:44 -0800

“Does it break my heart, of course, every moment of every day, into more pieces than my heart was made of, I never thought of myself as quiet, much less silent, I never thought about things at all, everything changed, the distance that wedged itself between me and my happiness wasn’t the world, it wasn’t the bombs and burning buildings, it was me, my thinking, the cancer of never letting go, is ignorance bliss, I don’t know, but it’s so painful to think, and tell me, what did thinking ever do for me, to what great place did thinking ever bring me? I think and think and think, I’ve thought myself out of happiness one million times, but never once into it.”

- Jonathan Safran Foer (via quotewhore) (via live-likenotomorrow)

Tips to improve the quality of your life

Tue, 01 Dec 2009 20:49:03 -0800

awfully-awkward:

yerawizardharry:

Take a 10-30 minute walk every day. And while you walk, smile. It is the ultimate anti-depressant.

Sit in silence for at least 10 minutes each day.

Buy a DVR and tape your late night shows and get more sleep.

When you wake up in the morning complete the following statement, ‘My purpose is to __________ today.’

Live with the 3 E’s — Energy, Enthusiasm, and Empathy.

Play more games and read more books than you did in last year.

Make time to practice meditation, and prayer. They provide us with daily fuel for our busy lives.

Spend time with people over the age of 70 and under the age of 6, its refreshing.

Dream more while you are awake, day dreaming is amazing.

Try to make at least three people smile each day.

Don’t waste your precious energy on gossip, OR issues of the past, negative thoughts or things you cannot control. Instead invest your energy in the positive present moment.

Smile and laugh more. It will keep the negative blues away.

Life isn’t fair, but it’s still good.

Life is too short to waste time hating anyone, i have learned that this year.

You don’t have to win every argument. Agree to disagree.

Make peace with your past so it won’t spoil the present.

Don’t compare your life to others’. You have no idea what their journey is all about.

No one is in charge of your happiness except you.

Forgive everyone for everything.

However good or bad a situation is, it will change.

Your job won’t take care of you when you are sick. Your friends will. Stay in touch.

Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need.

The best is yet to come.

No matter how you feel, get up, dress up and show up.

Remember that you are too blessed to be stressed.

Enjoy the ride. Remember this is not Disney World and you certainly don’t want a fast pass. You only have one ride through life so make the most of it and enjoy the ride.

Laugh when you can, apologize when you should, and let go of what you can’t change.
