Magical Spot on the River

Diamond Fuji, Japan by makoto mizuki

Read, read, read. Read everything -- trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.

— William Faulkner.

I have smelled my own honey on his mouth.

Anaïs Nin, from The Unexpurgated Diary of Anaïs Nin, 1931-1932

Spring is when flowers beckon in every corner of your heart.

—Bhuwan Thapaliya

“One day you will come across someone who will leave you completely in awe of them. Their kindness, their sincerity, their heart and the beautiful soul that you will get to know will leave you speechless. You will be shocked that people like this exist too. People who you only read about in books The kind of people who are just filled with good vibes and positivity. The kind of people who make you laugh, smile and regret that you didn’t meet them earlier. You will look at them and wonder how it was possible that someone else didn’t see what you see. How it was possible that someone let them go without digging in deeper to find a beautiful universe within them? You will ask yourself how you got the opportunity to meet someone this amazing and those before you didn’t notice their light in the way that you do. Or perhaps they did but they didn’t look any further. And one day when you come across someone like that, who is the definition of every single thing that you’ve ever been searching for, you’ll feel glad that those before you didn’t know what they were losing. Because you do.”
