Some journeys take us far from home. Some adventures lead us to our destiny.

If you’ve been up all night and cried till you have no more tears left in you - you will know that there comes in the end a sort of quietness. You feel as if nothing was ever going to happen again.

“I think you really should make a radical change in your lifestyle and begin to boldly do things which you may previously never have thought of doing, or been too hesitant to attempt. So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more damaging to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future.” -A letter from Chris McCandless to Ron Franz - Into The Wild

Some people feel like they don’t deserve love. They walk away quietly into empty spaces, trying to close the gaps of the past.

If you do one good deed your reward usually is to be set to do another and harder and better one.

Mother used to say that however miserable one is, there’s always something to be thankful for. And each morning, when the sky brightened and light began to flood my cell, I agreed with her.

“You are not special,” [Tris] say[s]. “I like to hurt people too. I can make the cruelest choice. The difference is, sometimes I don’t, and you always do, and that makes you evil.” –Allegiant

Happy Birthday, Miles Teller! Thanks for playing our favorite antagonist, Peter Hayes.

... most people might think that's just really bad luck; when you're a half-blood, you understand that some divine force really is trying to mess up your day.

Every meeting led to a parting, and so it would, as long as life was mortal. In every meeting there was some of the sorrow of parting, but in every parting there was some of the joy of meeting as well. He would not forget the joy.

Hey can I have some book recs please!!

YAY, of course! Here are some general ones from various types of genres!

The miniaturist by Jessie Burton This is a historical fiction novel set in Amsterdam in 1600′s. We follow a girl who is married off to this older rich dude and she recieves a cabinet version of their house as a wedding gift from it. She starts to order miniature furniture and stuff for the cabinet from a local miniaturist. But mysterious things starts to happen when the objects that she recieves resemble her personal life. 

This book is amazing. A great historical atmosphere, wonderful likeable characters and a tone of mystery. Also it’s definately a feminist read and overall a book about acceptance and self discover. Plus there’s a tv show being made I think. Read it. 

The shock doctrine by Naomi Klein 

I’m currently reading this one and people never recommend non-fiction on Tumblr so here I am. This is a non-fiction book about what Naomi Klein describes as “the rise of disaster capitalism” and it discusses how different countries adapted this “pure capitalist” system, with minimal control from the state. Naomi Klein’s point is basically that it has always happened with violence of some sort. I’m pretty nerdy about this stuff (tbh I am extremely nerdy haha) but I think this one is quite easy to understand and since it’s mostly about history, it’s almost told like a story. A fair warning though that it’s very sad, it speaks a lot about torture and dictatorship, which is terrifying but this book is super important to read I think. 

The body electric by Beth Revis 

This is a YA science fiction novel that has not got loads of attention but I think it’s the kind of book that a lot of different people wood enjoy. We follow our main character Ella, who lives on a future Malta, and she is pretty cool since she can enter people’s dreams through this machine that has been built. Though shit starts to happen when she realize that something weird has happened to her own memory and that’s basically all I can say without spoiling the whole book but it’s a sci-fi stand alone and it’s amazing. Massive plot twist near the end, be aware. 

Through the woods by Emily Carroll

This is a mega scary graphic novel. If I remember correcly we have five different shorter horror stories and they are beautifully drawn with cool and unique plots. And it’s very scary. So don’t read it at night if you’re sensitve but I would highly recommend it, it was so much fun to read it. 

Hope that you are interested in reading some of these, I though I mention some that we don’t talk about all the time. Have a nice day!

Well, you know how it feels if you begin hoping for something that you want desperately badly; you almost fight against the hope because it is too good to be true; you’ve been disappointed so often before.
