“

if I never see you again
I will always carry you
inside
outside

on my fingertips
and at brain edges

and in centers
centers
of what I am of
what remains.

”

- Charles Bukowski (via vriginsuicides)

“I want to be a woman who lives totally abandoned to the first commandment: to love my Lord, my God, with all my heart. I don’t want the reputation that I love God, I don’t want to write songs about loving God, I don’t want to talk about loving God. I want to actually love God. When I close my eyes, I want my heart to move. When I close my eyes and I look at Him, I want to feel alive on the inside. I want to look at Him with a fire in my heart and it’s real.”

“…throw roses into the abyss and say: ‘here is my thanks to the monster who didn’t succeed in swallowing me alive.’”

Signal Boost: I usually don’t ask for prayer requests via this blog but I really feel like this needs to be posted. Following the Woolwich slaughters in England today, there has been a horrifying amount of racism and bigotry going around on the internet directed towards Muslims. I’ve read numerous tweets calling for “riots” and “mosque raids.” This is not okay. At all. As Christians, I think it is highly important we pray for the safety of the Muslim citizens of England during this troubling time (and the family, friends, and nation effected by this horrible act.) So let’s all take a moment, no matter your faith, and send prayers and good vibes across borders and oceans.

Love is stronger than hate.

“Find meaning. Distinguish melancholy from sadness. Go out for a walk. It doesn’t have to be a romantic walk in the park, spring at its most spectacular moment, flowers and smells and outstanding poetical imagery smoothly transferring you into another world. It doesn’t have to be a walk during which you’ll have multiple life epiphanies and discover meanings no other brain ever managed to encounter. Do not be afraid of spending quality time by yourself. Find meaning or don’t find meaning but “steal” some time and give it freely and exclusively to your own self. Opt for privacy and solitude. That doesn’t make you antisocial or cause you to reject the rest of the world. But you need to breathe. And you need to be.”

- Albert Camus (via ceylans)

It’s hour eight on the train. I am in the state of virgins. In other news, there is a dude bro on this train who has great taste in music. I would know because I’m creepily listening to his playlist…Gotta love Itunes sharing.
