“Take it all back. Life is boring, except for flowers, sunshine, your perfect legs. A glass of cold water when you are really thirsty. The way bodies fit together. Fresh and young and sweet. Coffee in the morning. These are just moments. I struggle with the in-betweens. I just want to never stop loving like there is nothing else to do, because what else is there to do?”

~ Pablo Neruda

To this day,
God is the name by which I designate
all things which cross my willful path violently and recklessly,
all things which upset my subjective views, plans and intentions
and change the course of my life for better or worse.
~~Carl Jung

In all things be a master
Of what you do and say and think.
Be free.
Are you quiet? Quieten your body.
Quieten your mind.
By your own efforts
Waken yourself, watch,
And live joyfully.
Follow the truth of the way.
Reflect upon it.
Make it your own.
Live it.
It will always sustain you.

- Buddha from the Dhammapada

A Cherokee Indian elder was teaching his grandchildren about life.
