"Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return."

Instead of Complaining, or While You Are Complaining
Be the change you wish to see in the world
source Soul Hunting
// Probably the best way to change the world
"It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened?
But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something."
from Lord of the Rings - The Two Towers by J.R.R. Tolkien

For what it’s worth: It’s never too late, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have strength to start all over again.

I liked him first, but it doesn't matter.
I still like him.
That doesn't matter either.

Un-wall yourself
You are confined only by the walls you build yourself
source Love is Louder
// Yeah I know, but the walls are too thick and too tall to break. Also I got a little comfortable with the presence of them.
My happiness is all mine so as my sadness
Saying someone can't be sad because someone else may have it worse is just like saying someone can't be happy because else may have it better
source Shannon Sophia
Outside, there was that predawn kind of clarity, where the momentum of living has not quite captured the day. The air was not filled with conversation or thought bubbles or laughter or sidelong glances. Everyone was sleeping, all of their ideas and hopes and hidden agendas entangled in the dream world, leaving this world clear and crisp and cold as a bottle of milk in the fridge.
