"We’re all water from different rivers,
That’s why it’s so easy to meet,
We’re all water in this vast, vast ocean,
Someday we’ll evaporate together."
Yoko Ono (via venula)
"Cultivate the habit of being grateful for every good thing that comes to you, and to give thanks continuously. And because all things have contributed to your advancement, you should include all things in your gratitude."

"Midnight on a beach in the Mediterranean, and I miss you even here taking it all in. The sand, silvered, carries the moon on it’s shoulders. Is it possible to put this night to tune, and move it to you? Don’t cry, I’ll bring this home to you if I can make this night light enough to move. Cargo ships move by tracking on the horizon line. There’s a luster from the city lights on the waves that kiss our feet. And we’re thinking of going in, the time’s getting thin. This is a city for not sleeping and the clocks are set by feel. At this moment from where I sit, none of it seems real."

"I thought the most beautiful thing in the world must be shadow, the million moving shapes and cul-de-sacs of shadow. There was shadow in bureau drawers and closests and suitcases, and shadow under houses and trees and stones, and shadow at the back of people’s eyes and smiles, and shadow, miles and miles and miles of it, on the night side of the earth."
Sylvia Plath, The Bell Jar (via mycardboardboxes)

"When we are young, the words are scattered all around us. As they are assembled by experience, so also are we, sentence by sentence, until the story takes shape."
