“i feel trapped on a lonely star. someone else is very sick next door, and the vibes are almost too painful to bear. but i must stop saying that now so glibly. someday something will, in fact, be too painful to bear and then i will have to act. does one simply get tired of living? i can’t imagine right now what that would be like, but that is because i feel filled with a fury to live — because i believe life can be good even when it is painful — a fury that my energies just don’t match my desires anymore.” — audre lorde, a burst of light

“I was with someone I loved, with you. I was cold, and the snow glistened. You know how the snow glistens at night when the moon shines. It was as though I was not on earth.”

— Fyodor Dostoevsky, from The Complete Prose; “The Brothers Karamazov“

“We have endless expectations that our experience will go a certain way, and these expectations are almost inevitably foiled… . Zen Buddhist practice asks us to sit with and try to accept that incongruity, rather than strain against it.”

— Mike Gillis, “Cringing Toward Compassion” (via dharmarainbow)
