Perspective

All perspective is subjective, get reflective before yours is retrospective.

[books-n-quotes]

You realize that our mistrust of the future makes it hard to give up the past.

Chuck Palahniuk, Survivor (via books-n-quotes)

Yes, Chucky has all the prophetic wise words...

HOW I KNEW YOU LOVED ME: It’s in the way you looked at me, like I was the brightest star on the darkest night, leading you back home when nowhere else felt right. I’ve been told it’s unhealthy to become dependent on somebody, but some days it felt as if your eyes were the only thing keeping me alive. Nobody’s ever looked at me like that before. Nobody has since. I felt it like you can feel the warmth of the sun. When you held me in your arms as everything fell apart, I felt love seeping through the layers of skin and bone between us. And although I couldn’t see it, I’m sure that it was there; Love. As simple as that.

You, have no absolute idea how awfully tired I am, to wake up to the whispers of the morning wind instead of your voice.

Lukas W. // For when it all begins without you (via somepiecesofmyheartandsoul)

There are times when I become tired of waking up every day...the wind weeps and howls my despair.

Feel What You Mean

I won’t hold you to your words. Deep emotions are often expressed in irrational words.

I want you to be able to say anything.

...Even what you don’t mean.

I am afraid of your silence because of what it could mean.  I suspect your silence of meaning you are getting bored or losing interest or making up your own mind about me without my guidance. I believe that as long as I keep you talking I can know what you are thinking.

But silence can also mean confidence. And mutual respect. Silence can mean live and let live: the appreciation that I am I and you are you. This silence is an affirmation that we are already together-as two people. Words can mean that I want to make you into a friend and silence can mean that I accept your already  being one.

There are no absolutes for something so relative as a human life.

You will die a thousand times before you wake up feeling alive in your own skin. You will love all of the wrong hearts before you realize the strength in your own.

TRUTH

[blacklilywhitelie]

You don't know how things will be changed by your actions, but they will. It is not our place to adjust the universe. I have traveled through madness to figure this out...and you will, too.

Walter Bishop

“I saw her many years ago, she crossed my mind. Somehow, she never left it. I think...I love her.”

The flash of her eyes had been succeeded by a dreamy and melancholy softness; they no longer gave the impression of looking at the objects around her: they appeared always to gaze beyond, and far beyond- you would have said out of this world.

He's away from me now, not in space...but in time. And yes, I'm lonesome, but not for him.     Only for the way he made me feel.     I wonder if skin has a memory as well as the mind? I can't remember what he looks like anymore, Only the way I felt when he touched me.      There was a time      When I loved him so much      JUST THE AIR      Would hurt me...      It was frightening      To need someone      That VIOLENTLY.      But I'm finding that      It's even more frightening      Not to feel that way         Anymore...            About anyone.

The darkness never goes from some men’s eyes...

The biggest coward is a man who awakens a woman’s love with no intention of loving her

[thelovewhisperer]

No one has the right to tell you who you are and control your life, cause its yours. Your life is meant to be lived by no one else but yourself. We sometimes let people get the best of us, destroy us and change our opinions on what we believe is true. Only you know what’s right for yourself, you have the power, you make the choices and you learn. Each experience we go through in life is a lesson to be learned. We all make mistakes, why is that so hard for some to understand? No one should be judged by the mistakes they have made. Its past news. Everything happens for a reason, and without the hard times, how would we ever realize our true strength? It’s only through a time of suffering when we realize how strong we truly are inside, when we realize how much we can actually put up with and deal with before we eventually break.

If any thing is sacred, the human body is sacred.

...And your very flesh shall be a great poem...

I ascend from the moon, I ascend from the night,                                             I perceive that the ghastly glimmer is noonday sunbeams reflected               And debouch to the steady and central from the offspring great or small.       Of physiology from top to toe I sing,                                                             Not physiognomy alone nor brain alone is worthy for the Muse,                       I say the Form complete is worthier far,                                                         The Female equally with the Male I sing. 

Now I see the secret of making the best person: it is to grow in the open air and to eat and sleep with the earth.

The friendly and flowing savage, who is he? Is he waiting for civilization, or past it and mastering it? Wherever he goes men and women accept and desire him, They desire he should like them, touch them, speak to them, stay with them. Behavior lawless as snowflakes, words simple as grass,         uncomb’d head, laughter, and naivete,  Flaunt of the sunshine I need not your bask- lie over! You light surfaces only, I force surfaces and depths also. Man or woman, I might tell how I like you, but cannot,  And might tell what it is in me and what it is in you, but cannot, And might tell that pining I have, that pulse of my nights and days. Behold, I do not give lectures or a little charity,  When I give I give myself. I do not ask who you are, that is not important to me, You can do nothing and be nothing but what I will infold you. Sleep- I and they keep guard all night,  Not doubt, not decease shall dare to lay finger upon you,  I have embraced you, and henceforth possess you to myself,  And when you rise in the morning you will find 

WHAT I TELL YOU IS SO.

Pick me up so I can fall back down again Descending into vertigo

Now that you're all alone, do you remember that song Just think of ME when you're falling asleep When you wake up you'll be able to dream

It is my eyes which see, and the sight of my eyes grants beauty to the earth. It is my ears which hear, and the hearing of my ears gives its song to the world. It is my mind which thinks, and the judgement of my mind is the only searchlight that can find the truth. It is my will which chooses, and the choice of my will is the only edict I must respect.

We have the duty of formulating, of summarizing, and of communicating our conclusions, in intelligible form, in recognition of the right of other free minds to utilize them in making their own decisions; The strongest arguments prove nothing so long as the conclusions are not verified by experience. Experimental science is the queen of sciences and the goal of all speculation.

This very same voiceless projection can expertly calm its insatiable curiosity for growth, cleansing the doors of perception. The silence encourages our entity to focus on dismissing any lingering remnants of limitation. The mind that perceives the limitation is the limitation. Everything  appears now as it truly is...infinite. A BEAUTIFUL ⅋  LOFTY existence hath the shadow.

But I know, that I will always continue to grow As long as I lead, and never follow no one else's shadow There will NEVER be another me, and that I can guarantee And no matter what they do, there will never be another you You can search but you'll never find You can try to rewind time, but in your hearts and your minds We will never die, we are forever alive

I WON’T EVER LEAVE YOU, EVEN THOUGH YOU’RE ALWAYS LEAVING ME

Time does not bring relief; you all have lied Who told me time would ease me of my pain! I miss him in the weeping of the rain; I want him at the shrinking of the tide; The old snows melt from every mountain-side, And last year’s leaves are smoke in every lane; But last year’s bitter loving must remain Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide. There are a hundred places where I fear To go—so with his memory they brim. And entering with relief some quiet place Where never fell his foot or shone his face I say, “There is no memory of him here!” And so stand stricken, so remembering him.

Now that you're all ALONE, do you remember that song Just think of me when you're falling asleep When you wake up you'll be able to dream

And who knew just how much The sky'd cover me It makes you forget What it means to be free
