“It’s Never Too Late To Start Being Who You Want To Be”

“Please be patient with me. Sometimes when I’m quiet it’s because I need to figure myself out. It’s not because I don’t want to talk. Sometimes there are no words for my thoughts.”

— Kamla Bolanos

When Sylvia Plath wrote "I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited."

I had a great time today (I don’t want to go into the darkness alone.) you make me so happy (darling, the light is fading.) I’m going to love you forever and ever (I’m scared my forever can’t be much longer, love.) I’ll see you in the morning (there is a heaviness in my heart that will not quiet. I am fearing the sunrise will not come.) you make me so smile so much (you deserve better and I’m still sorry I couldn’t give it) I’ll do my best to take care of myself (my best is hiding from the darkness. my best is looking up wearily at the approaching night.) I’m tired (of breathing) I’ll see you (for that I can live) I love you (the poets spoke of the sun but I know only your smile.)

“People speak of belief when they have lost knowledge. Belief and disbelief in God are mere surrogates. The naive primitive doesn’t be­lieve, he knows, because the inner experience rightly means as much to him as the outer. He still has no theology and hasn’t yet let himself be befuddled by boobytrap concepts. He adjusts his life -of ne­cessity- to outer and inner facts, which he does not -as we do- feel to be discontinuous. He lives in one world, whereas we live only in one half and merely believe in the other or not at all. We have blotted it out with so-called “spiritual development”, which means that we live by self-fabricated electric light… ””

“Two things to remember in life: Take care of your thoughts when you are alone, and take care of your words when you are with people.”

— Zig Ziglar

“If you want to be happy, do not dwell in the past, don’t worry about the future, focus on living fully in the present.”
