Home is where the heart is

[philosophybits]

Try to so shape your life that external things will not harm you. And try also to get rid of personal property. It involves sordid preoccupation, endless industry, continual wrong. Personal property hinders individualism at every step.

Oscar Wilde, The Soul of Man Under Socialism (via philosophybits)

ای دل به سردمِهریِ دوران صبور باش… Oh heart, Be resilient  With the world’s callousness.

when you realize you are truly alone - no partner, no family, no friend - no one to express or understand the deepest parts of you (since it’s not their job to do so), you will find sweetness in the silent pause, the moments that you alone experience with your lord as your companion, testifying that it’s always been between you two anyway. every interaction, every moment of your life is not yours or spent on or with another person, but rather a constant dialogue with the beloved who lives within and without…
