One last piece of advice...
Look, as dim a view as I have of the future right now, and it's pretty goddamn grim...
And it's not just exclusively an American problem, we're seeing the rise of authoritarianism and strongman leaders everywhere... Don't be a hashtag activist. Change is going to take some fucking time. Dig in for the long haul. Spend some time with the enemy. Walk around in some other people’s shoes. Try to get your priorities reasonable. A little love. Some good pasta. Nice spicy noodles. Survival... - Anthony Bourdain |
"Throw your dreams into space like a kite, for you do not know what it will bring back:
A new life, a new friend, a new love, a new country," ~ Anaïs Nin |
Success...
Success is no accident. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, studying, sacrifice and most of all, love of what you are doing or learning to do... - Pele |
Motives
It is said that wisdom lies in not seeing things, but seeing through things.

Never chase love, affection, or attention. If it isn't given freely by another person, it isn't worth having.

Love lies in those unsent drafts in your mailbox. Sometimes you wonder whether things would have been different if you'd clicked 'Send'.

"..Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks
Within his bending sickle's compass come; Love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, But bears it out even to the edge of doom.." [116] |

Life...
"There is an ecstasy that marks the summit of life, and beyond which life cannot rise. And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive. This ecstasy, this forgetfulness of living, comes to the artist, caught up and out of himself in a sheet of flame; it comes to the soldier, war-mad in a stricken field and refusing quarter; and it came to Buck, leading the pack, sounding the old wolf-cry, straining after the food that was alive and that fled swiftly before him through the moonlight." - Jack London |

HEARTWORK
Each day is born with a sunrise and ends in a sunset, the same way we open our eyes to see the light, and close them to hear the dark. You have no control over how your story begins or ends. But by now, you should know that all things have an ending. Every spark returns to darkness. Every sound returns to silence. And every flower returns to sleep with the earth. The journey of the sun and moon is predictable. But yours, is your ultimate ART. ― Suzy Kassem http://farm1.static.flickr.com/45/17...e7260e7cd0.jpg |
"The best remedy for those who are afraid, lonely or unhappy is to go outside, somewhere where they can be quiet, alone with the heavens, nature and God. Because only then does one feel that all is as it should be and that God wishes to see people happy, amidst the simple beauty of nature."
Anne Frank |

This SO Applies To Me
You are not for everyone.
The world is filled with people who, no matter what you do, will point blank not like you. But it is also filled with those who will love you fiercely. They are your people. You are not for everyone and that's OK. Talk to people who can hear you. Don't waste your precious time and gifts trying to convince them of your value, they won't ever want what you're selling. Don't convince them to walk alongside of you. You'll be wasting both your time and theirs and will likely inflict unnecessary wounds, which will take precious time to heal. You are not for them and they are not for you; politely wave them on, and continue along your way. Sharing your path with someone is a sacred gift; don't cheapen this gift by rolling yourself in the wrong direction. Keep facing your true north. Rebecca Campbell |

“I think perhaps love comes from finding someone you feel utterly comfortable with, someone who makes you comfortable with yourself. It's like...finding yourself, or maybe it's like finding the other part of yourself.” ― Candice Proctor
