When you go out into the woods and you look at trees, you see all these different trees. And some of them are bent... you sort of understand that it didn't get enough light, and so it turned that way. And you don't get all emotional about it. You just allow it.
The minute you get near humans, you lose all that. And you are constantly saying "You are too this, or I'm too this." That judgement mind comes in. And so I practice turning people into trees. Which means appreciating them just the way they are.
ZITATE. Sprüche, Redewendungen, Textauszüge, Liedtexte, Kurzfilme, Tanzvideos, Lieder, etc.: mir sind irgendwann die Post-Its und Notizbücher ausgegangen. Lumen [lat.] = Licht. Noctivagum [lat.] = nachts umherschweifend, bei Nacht umherziehend. Der Blogtitel ist vor Jahren in einem Gespräch mit meiner besten Freundin entstanden. Das Hintergrundbild ist von mir. Sofern nicht anderweitig genannt, zählen Zitate ohne Referenz zu "Unbekannt". ~Fiete, on hiatus

Ich werde lieber für das gehasst,
was ich bin,
als für das geliebt zu werden,
was ich nicht bin.

And every day,
the world will drag you by the hand,
yelling,
"This is important!
And this is important!
And this is important!
You need to worry about this!
And this!
And this!"
And each day,
it's up to you to yank your hand back,
put it on your heart and say,
"No. This is what’s important."

Na Jung Sun: Have you ever experienced the feeling of
someone you thought you knew well
suddenly becoming a complete stranger?
[...]
Song Mi Na: Isn't it a mistake to even think
that we know another person well?
We think that a part of the person we see
is that someone's true self.
Don't we all have at least one secret
we keep from others.
Na Jung Sun: Is that so?
Song Mi Na: Isn't that the case with you?
someone you thought you knew well
suddenly becoming a complete stranger?
[...]

Why don't you forget them
and do something for yourself?

Chaos is found in greatest abundance
wherever order is being sought.
It always defeats order,
because it is better organized.

"I meant," said Ipsolde bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
Death thought about it.
CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

So, do it. Decide.
Is this the life you want to live?
Is this the person you want to love?
Is this the best you can be?
Can you be stronger?
Kinder? More compassionate?
Decide.
Breathe in.
Breathe out
and decide.

"The Year in Ugliness" by Arabelle Sicardi
What part of yourself did you have to destroy
in order to survive in the world this year?
But most importantly:
what have you found
to be unkillable?

Charles Bukowski
How can you say you love one person when there are ten thousand people in the world
that you would love more if you ever met them? But you’ll never meet them.
All right, so we do the best we can. Granted.
But we must still realize that love is just
the result of a chance encounter.
