The scarf it’s not only red and white, it has more colours. It was a gift from my wife. I have plenty of scarfs, although I wish I hadn’t.

Every man has his secret sorrows which the world knows not; and often times we call a man cold when he is only sad.
Crying begins in the guts; it’s a gut feeling that rises upwards.

Michael Trimble talks about how crying works & why we do it.

I opened my mouth, almost said something. Almost. The rest of my life might have turned out differently if I had. But I didn’t.

Jane Siberry,
When I Was A Boy

literaryjukebox:

We live in a society where romantic love is idealized: if we search long enough, we will find “the one,” the soulmate who is perfect for us, who will grow and change at the exact same rate we do, who loves us exactly as we are and never expects us to change, who always wants us sexually, never has bad breath or gets grouchy, and is perfectly desirable in every way. We expect our partner to fully meet us on an intellectual, physical, sexual, and spiritual basis; to be our lover, best friend, a companion, confidante, confessor, therapist, and family, all rolled into one. This sets up monumental expectations which all of us invariably fall short of.

I’m ambivalent about the Law of Attraction’s scientific validity, but I do know that it’s harder than it looks. Because it’s hard to believe in yourself like that. Significantly, it’s the believing that’s harder than the actual doing. It takes work to convince yourself that you’re going to succeed, when everything around you looks like Hard Times. It takes work for me to think I’m going to make $15 million when literally everything around me is telling me that is never, ever going to happen. Like, ever. The Law of Attraction is like turning yourself into an insane person – you have to force yourself to purposefully detach from reality. I dropped this one when I started feeling too insane to function.
Art is to console those who are broken by life.

And no matter how many land mines erupt in a minute, be sure your mind lands on the beauty of this funny place called life. And yes, on a scale from one to over-trusting, I am pretty damn naive. But I want her to know that this world is made out of sugar. It can crumble so easily, but don’t be afraid to stick your tongue out and taste it.

Uhhh..We’ve just entered Jezza. When I say ‘We’ve just entered Jezza’, that’s a disgusting thought. We’ve come in to Jezza..No, we haven’t come in to Jezza..
