always growing

“Things and people are not what we wish them to be nor what they seem to be. They are what they are.”

“If you inherently long for something, become it first. If you want gardens, become the gardener. If you want love, embody love. If you want mental stimulation, change the conversation. If you want peace, exude calmness. If you want to fill your world with artists, begin to paint. If you want to be valued, respect your own time. If you want to live ecstatically, find the ecstasy within yourself. This is how to draw it in, day by day, inch by inch.”

*listens to Where is my Mind by The Pixies*

“People who believe they’ll be happy if they go and live somewhere else, learn it doesn’t work that way. Wherever you go, you take yourself with you.”

uhh what is love

“‘What goes too long destroys itself. The forest is forever because it dies and dies and so lives.’”
