"Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished." -- Lao Tzu #nature #instagood #cebuph #travelgram #traveldiary #wanderlust #monday (at Nature at its Best)

A great trick of every enlightened master, is being ever mindful that it's not what you do that brings about a miracle, but that you do it.

I do believe in an everyday sort of magic — the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of syncronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we’re alone.

Charles de Lint (via sylphwings)

You always ask that, “WHY”. Like there’s an answer for everything. Not everybody has your life, you know, or your family. In life, things happen for reasons. People make sense.

"Maybe there's something you're afraid to say, someone you're afraid to love, or somewhere you're afraid to go. It's gonna hurt. It's gonna hurt because it matters."

"I wasn't really mad at them. I was mad at the universe. Even so, it infuriated me: You get all these friends just when you don't need friends anymore."

If you want to kill yourself, kill what you don’t like. I had an old self that I killed. You can kill yourself too, but that doesn’t mean you got to stop living.

Whenever you feel the urge to talk to me, I want you to remember all the times I’ve hurt you. I left you. I ignored all of your attempts to reconnect with me. I have lied over and over again that you can’t distinguish which of my words are the truth. Remember the nights when tears are warm only to leave you cold. I am nothing but a collection of false promises and a hammer through your chest. Please don’t love me anymore; you’re wasting your time and feelings.

Maybe its like you said before, all of us being cracked open. Like each of us starts out as a watertight vessel. And then things happen - these people leave us, or don’t love us, or don’t get us, or we don’t get them, and we lose and fail and hurt one another. And the vessel starts to crack in places. And I mean, yeah once the vessel cracks open, the end becomes inevitable. Once it starts to rain inside the Osprey, it will never be remodeled. But there is all this time between when the cracks start to open up and when we finally fall apart. And its only that time that we see one another, because we see out of ourselves through our cracks and into others through theirs. When did we see each other face to face? Not until you saw into my cracks and I saw into yours. Before that we were just looking at ideas of each other, like looking at your window shade, but never seeing inside. But once the vessel cracks, the light can get in. The light can get out.

"If you're still up at 4 AM, you are in love or lonely--- and I don't know which one is worse."

i can't be who you are.

Sometimes I remind myself that I almost skipped the party, that I almost went to a different college, that the whim of a minute could have changed everything and everyone. Our lives, so settled, so specific, are built on happenstance.
