The Maris Show

@mariscanfly

My name is Damaris. I like to make things sometimes. I love to sing and dance. I don't read books...I devour them. I live in a hot, hot desert. I am addicted to lip gloss and magazines. I'm a graphic designer...when I want to be. I love writing stories, and making people laugh. Thunderstorms are comforting to me. Fashion makes my heart race. My dearest wish is to have a dog.

Guided meditations are the best

So far it’s the only method that works for me. I have trouble silencing my mind by myself, but these yield better results. 10/10 definitely going to make this a daily thing.

Love isn’t about fucking each other at any opportunity.

It also isn’t about how many months or years that you’ve been together.

To me, love is about being able to see light inside of the person who knows nothing but darkness.

Act my age? What the fuck is that, “act my age”? What do I care how old I am? The Ocean is old as fuck. It will still drown your ass with vigor.

Ancient moon priestesses were called virgins. ‘Virgin’ meant not married, not belonging to a man - a woman who was ‘one-in-herself’. The very word derives from a Latin root meaning strength, force, skill; and was later applied to men: virle. Ishtar, Diana, Astarte, Isis were all all called virgin, which did not refer to sexual chastity, but sexual independence. And all great culture heroes of the past, mythic or historic, were said to be born of virgin mothers: Marduk, Gilgamesh, Buddha, Osiris, Dionysus, Genghis Khan, Jesus - they were all affirmed as sons of the Great Mother, of the Original One, their worldly power deriving from her. When the Hebrews used the word, and in the original Aramaic, it meant ‘maiden’ or ‘young woman’, with no connotations to sexual chastity. But later Christian translators could not conceive of the ‘Virgin Mary’ as a woman of independent sexuality, needless to say; they distorted the meaning into sexually pure, chaste, never touched.

If you can’t like Captain America anymore because he’s black, there’s a word for that.

Men still have trouble recognizing that a woman can be complex, can have ambition, good looks, sexuality, erudition and common sense. A woman can have all those facets, and yet men, in literature and in drama, seem to need to simplify women, to polarize us as either the whore or the angel. - Natalie Dormer
