Things I Like

“The trophies of this world mean nothing to the mystic lover; the only true goal and reward is experiencing the divine and drawing nearer to the beloved. A mystic is not interested in this world or even paradise; she just longs to be one of the hearts seeking the face and favor of the beloved. A mystic does not seek status, wealth, or a high position. And even if she has attained a high rank, she resists pride and arrogance. Her aim is not to elevate herself but to humble herself.”

there is a level of seduction that exists beyond the body. something less tangible, and perhaps more potent. anais nin understood this idea about how desire does not begin with touch but with language, perception, and the sharp electric pull of a mind that challenges and excites you. in her journals, desire is not just a physical hunger but a hunger of the intellect, an unraveling of thought before an unraveling of the body. to be drawn into someone’s mind, to feel their thoughts press against your own, can be more intoxicating than any physical closeness.

Ethan Hawke -i don’t like everything he says but that’s ok.we’re human. I do like his acting and he said this just right. 🌸
