I hasten to sleep so that I might dreamand colour my mind with a myriad of things.
Then come. Let me send you to see if you have lived your life serving a deity or a dream.
Knowledge is too final. Not knowing lets you dream a little.
Eyes so young, so full of pain ... Two lonely drops of winter rain ... And no tear could these eyes sustain ... For too much had they seen.
It's sad that in a world of billions, people can still feel isolated and alone. Sometimes all it takes to brighten up someone's day is a smile or kind word, or the generous actions of a complete stranger. Small things, the tiny details, these are the things that matter in life _ the little glint in the eye, curve of a lip, nod of a head, wave of a hand _ such minuscule movements have huge ripple effects.
There is greater clarity in the still waters of sadness, something not found in the babbling brooks of more sought after emotions.
A night of crying has silenced me. This morning it seems the whole world is against me. I've never before felt so barren, so empty. I've never before thought the daylight to be ... my enemy. My enemy.
Pencil. Paper. Forget the world.
Nothing listens as well as a blank page.
We are pushed towards eternal silence from the moment we are born. So when sadness tries to stifle us, we must not give in. We must keep whispering.
When the time comes for you to leave this earth, if it doesn__ become a lesser place with your absence, then you have wasted your life.
This is for you, for your breath, whose absence would lessen a greater world.
The death of a lesser man is the death of all those who believe themselves to be greater.
We are more than the person who wakes each day. We are the dreams of the previous night and the nightmares of the week before.
And the man who dreamt of flight has tripped and fallen in a hole.
I may be going nowhere, but what a ride.
It shouldn't take a life-changing event for you to change your life.
