A song from Spring Awakening... really, more like a poem. Spectacularly beautiful.
------ Purple Summer And all shall fade the flowers of spring the world and all the sorrows at the heart of everything but still it stays the butterfly sings and opens purple summer with a flutter of its wings the earth will wave with corn the grey-fly choir will mourn and mares will neigh with stallions that they mate foals they've borne and all shall know the wonder of purple summer... And yet, I wait the swallow brings a song to hard to follow that no one else can sing the fences sway the porches swing the clouds begins to thunder crickets wander, murmuring the earth will wave with corn the grey-fly choir will mourn and mares will neigh with stallions that they mate foals they've borne and all shall know the wonder I will sing the song of purple summer |

Frühling -Hermann Hesse In dämmrigen Grüften träumte ich lang von dein Bäumen und blauen Lüften, von deinem Duft und Vogelsang. Nun liegst du erschlossen in Gleiss und Zier von Licht übergossen wie ein Wunder vor mir. Du kennst mich wieder, du lockst mich zart, es zittert durch all meine Glieder deine selige Gegenwart! (translation) Spring In dusky graveyards I dreamed long of your trees and blue skies, of your scent and your birdsong. Now you lie uncovered glittering and ornamented bathed in light like a jewel before me. You recognize me, you entice me gently, A shudder runs through my body your blissful presence. Link ~>> Hopkins Symphony Orchestra | 2010-2011 Season |

A new promise to be fulfilled. A new page to be written. Go forth unto this waiting world with pen in hand, all you young scribes, the open book awaits. Be creative. Be adventurous. Be original. And above all else, be young. For youth is your greatest weapon, your greatest tool. Use it wisely.” –Wonder Woman # 62 |

Life is a building. It rises slowly, day by day throughout the years.
Every new lesson we learn lays a block on the edifice, which is rising silently within us. Every experience, every touch of another life on ours, every influence that impresses us, every book we read, every conversation we hear, every act of our commonest days, adds something to the invisible building. James R. Miller |
“We take a risk when we open our hearts because the truth is, if we open our hearts, we will get hurt. You can’t open your heart and not have some hurt because you’re in a human experience. Even if it’s the love of your life and you have many wonderful, deepening, growing, powerful years together, it’s a human experience and that person will pass over. Love takes courage. Be courageous.” - Mary Manin Morrissey |
“Live every moment in the present. Do it. Risk it. Buy it if you love it. Loving well takes practice, delicious practice. If it feels good, it must be good.” - Gael Greene |
"I don't believe people are looking for the meaning of life as much as they are looking for the experience of being alive." - Joseph Campbell |
"Yeah, you know it's me. I'm all about the porn."

When you make a commitment to a relationship, you invest your attention and energy in it more profoundly because you now experience ownership of that relationship.

Love is fire, but whether it's gonna warm your heart or burn your house down you can never tell.
