Me:

Soma: what defines a human? is human simply anything with autonomy? is it anything that can make a choice? what if you were replicated into another completely autonomous being? are you now a copy or are you an original of a copy? do you get to decide what happens to your double even if they present freewill? who gets to choose what happens if there is more than one of you? are you the same? or are you complete strangers to each other?

Me, who thought they were just playing a simple horror game:

audio edits that unlock secret emotions

‘mystery of love’ by sufjan stevens but you’re in your countryside backyard picking flowers while your neighbor who you’re secretly in love with plays music you can hear through their open window.

‘clair de lune’ by claude debussy but you’re wandering down the halls of your wealthy reclusive uncle’s grand and empty mansion trying to find who’s playing the piano because you haven’t seen another soul for weeks except your reflection in the mirror.

‘movement’ by hozier but you’re hiding in an abandoned warehouse during a thunderstorm.

cavetown’s ‘you’ve got a friend in me’ except it’s playing through an old radio you found during your post-apocalyptic scavenger hunt, reminding you of an old friend who went missing three years ago who you were secretly in love with.

Horns (USA - Canada, 2013)

The feelings that hurt most, the emotions that sting most, are those that are absurd–The longing for impossible things, precisely because they are impossible; nostalgia for what never was; the desire for what could have been; regret over not being someone else; dissatisfaction with the world’s existence. All these half-tones of the soul’s consciousness create in us a painful landscape, an eternal sunset of what we are.

—Fernando Pessoa, from The Book of Disquiet (Pantheon, 1991, originally published in 1982)

Aquarius culture is convincing yourself your feelings about a situation were invalid and then being hit by tsunami of residual feelings 2 years later and experiencing the heartbreak all over again

“All men have stars, but they are not the same things for different people. For some, who are travelers, the stars are guides. For others they are no more than little lights in the sky. For others, who are scholars, they are problems… But all these stars are silent. You-You alone will have stars as no one else has them… In one of the stars I shall be living. In one of them I shall be laughing. And so it will be as if all the stars will be laughing when you look at the sky at night. You, only you, will have stars that can laugh! And when your sorrow is comforted (time soothes all sorrows) you will be content that you have known me… You will always be my friend. You will want to laugh with me. And you will sometimes open your window, so, for that pleasure… It will be as if, in place of the stars, I had given you a great number of little bells that knew how to laugh”

— The Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

only with the heart

“It’s madness to hate all roses because you got scratched with one thorn, to give up all dreams because one of them didn’t come true, to give up all attempts because one of them failed. It’s folly to condemn all your friends because one has betrayed you, to no longer believe in love just because someone was unfaithful or didn’t love you back, to throw away all your chances to be happy because something went wrong. There will always be another opportunity, another friend, another love, a new strength. For every end, there is always a new beginning….. And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”

~ Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince

what is it about being in your 20s and not knowing who you are anymore. I still listen to the same music and read books and write silly poems when i’m sad but it doesn’t feel the same. I don’t feel the same. everything feels so far away and i feel like i lost something a long time ago and i don’t know what it is and i cannot find it.

Aria Aber, from Hard Damage; “Operation Cyclone”

I’m not meant for chaos. I don’t resonate with raised voices, constant tension, or unnecessary back and forth. I don’t welcome anger in my spirit or anything that pulls me away from who I am at my core. I am gentle. I am loving. I move with intention. If something disturbs my peace or shifts me into negativity, it no longer has a place in my life.
