And me, I remain alone. Entangled in my love affair with solitude.

Her vibe is attractive. People think she is stuck in her own little world, but I liked the fact that all she cares about is her own happiness.

Do you think
Do you think I am one of those who mend hearts, deliver the soul, and drive out suffering?. I am certain I am more capable of provoking disillusion and disgust. I have little skill in healing, although I have sometimes tried it.

One day you will have whatever
One day you will have whatever it is you are now so confusedly seeking. That kind of calm that comes from knowing oneself and others. But you can’t rush the arrival of that state of mind. There are things you only learn when no one teaches you and that’s how it is with life. There is even more beauty in discovering it for yourself, inspite of the suffering.
Sensitive people are both unhappier and happier than others, but give it some time.
- Clarice Lispector
What she was like
What she was like. Snow, cream, marble, cherries, alabaster, golden wire? None of these. She was like a fox, or an olive tree, like the waves of the sea when you look down upon them from a height, like an emerald, like the sun on a green hill which is yet clouded.
- Virginia Woolf
People who smile

If I had to define myself
If I had to define myself, I would walk out the door without a word. I don't define myself.
- Luis Buñuel
What use is moonlight?
What use is moonlight? I reach into it, fingers open, and my hand is silvered and blessed, and comes back to me holding nothing.
- Margaret Atwood
